json pull to insert into a post

Hello,

I’ve got a handle on the non Worspress PHP (I’ve been experimenting in PHPfiddle.org) but am having trouble translating it to functionality in wordpress.

I’m looking to get a json pull from http://aggrenda.com/mpellas/michael-pellas/events.json and post the data (address, description, photo url, website) in a scheduled wordpress post.

I’ve been able to get a json string but haven’t been able to parse it in wordpress.

here is the latest code:

add_shortcode('aggrenda', 'requestAggrendaEvents');

		function requestAggrendaEvents() {
			$json = wp_remote_get("http://aggrenda.com/mpellas/michael-pellas/events.json");
			$data = json_decode($json, true);
			return $data['events'];
		}

		function getPostInfo($aggrendaEvent) {
			return array(
				"title" => $aggrendaEvent['title'],
				"description" => $aggrendaEvent['description'],
			);
		}

		// Get the aggrenda events as an associative array
		$aggrendaEvents = requestAggrendaEvents();

		// Get the WordPress post information for the "next" event in Aggrenda
		$postInfo = getPostInfo($aggrendaEvents[0]);

		// TODO: Create a post using $postInfo
		echo $postInfo['title'], '';
		echo $postInfo['description'], '';

		// See what exactly is in $postInfo right now
		var_dump($postInfo);

What am I missing?
