过滤掉数组中的对象

Question

Working within php, I am passed an array of objects ( $terms ):

array(15) {
  [0]=>
  object(WP_Term)#341 (10) {
    ["term_id"]=>
    int(263)
    ["name"]=>
    string(15) "Moo"
    ["slug"]=>
    string(15) "moo"
    ["term_group"]=>
    int(0)
    ["term_taxonomy_id"]=>
    int(263)
    ["taxonomy"]=>
    string(9) "my_topics"
    ["description"]=>
    string(0) ""
    ["parent"]=>
    int(0)
    ["count"]=>
    int(29)
    ["filter"]=>
    string(3) "raw"
  }
  [1]=>
  object(WP_Term)#342 (10) {
    ["term_id"]=>
    int(264)
    ["name"]=>
    string(10) "Bark"
    ["slug"]=>
    string(10) "bark"
    ["term_group"]=>
    int(0)
    ["term_taxonomy_id"]=>
    int(264)
    ["taxonomy"]=>
    string(9) "my_topics"
    ["description"]=>
    string(0) ""
    ["parent"]=>
    int(0)
    ["count"]=>
    int(17)
    ["filter"]=>
    string(3) "raw"
  }
  [2]=>
  object(WP_Term)#343 (10) {
    ["term_id"]=>
    int(281)
    ["name"]=>
    string(16) "Meow"
    ["slug"]=>
    string(16) "meow"
    ["term_group"]=>
    int(0)
    ["term_taxonomy_id"]=>
    int(281)
    ["taxonomy"]=>
    string(9) "my_topics"
    ["description"]=>
    string(0) ""
    ["parent"]=>
    int(266)
    ["count"]=>
    int(2)
    ["filter"]=>
    string(3) "raw"
  }
  [3]=>
  object(WP_Term)#344 (10) {
    ["term_id"]=>
    int(282)
    ["name"]=>
    string(19) "Tweet"
    ["slug"]=>
    string(19) "tweet"
    ["term_group"]=>
    int(0)
    ["term_taxonomy_id"]=>
    int(282)
    ["taxonomy"]=>
    string(9) "my_topics"
    ["description"]=>
    string(0) ""
    ["parent"]=>
    int(266)
    ["count"]=>
    int(4)
    ["filter"]=>
    string(3) "raw"
  }
  [4]=>
  object(WP_Term)#345 (10) {
    ["term_id"]=>
    int(772)
    ["name"]=>
    string(8) "Chirp"
    ["slug"]=>
    string(8) "chirp"
    ["term_group"]=>
    int(0)
    ["term_taxonomy_id"]=>
    int(772)
    ["taxonomy"]=>
    string(9) "my_topics"
    ["description"]=>
    string(0) ""
    ["parent"]=>
    int(0)
    ["count"]=>
    int(3)
    ["filter"]=>
    string(3) "raw"
  }

}

In my real array, instead of [4], there are [14]...but that shouldn't matter because I can't rely on targeting by number.

If an object within the array contains "slug" value of "meow", I want to filter that object out and produce a new array with the rest of the objects in tact.

I need to exclude a specific object which has a specific value, in the array. My approach is to use 'array_filter' Here's where I am stuck (I feel like I'm so close but traversing arrays of objects can give me a hard time):

$refinedterms = array_filter($terms, function($obj){
  echo objTEST;
  var_dump($obj);
  foreach($obj->WP_Term as $wpTermObj){
    echo wpTermObjTEST;
    var_dump($wpTermObj);
      foreach ($wpTermObj->slug as $slug) {
        echo slugTEST;
        var_dump($slug);
          if ($slug == 'meow') return false;
      }
  }
  return true;
});

The echos and var_dumps are in place to help me debug. I feel like the fourth line is where something is a miss. Thank you in advance for any assistance, it is very much appreciated.

It is as simple as:

$new_array = array_filter(
    $terms, 
    function($v) { return $v->slug !== 'meow'; }
);
