How to detect all parents of an opencart 2.3 category?

Question

PHP

Hey! I am getting the categories as an array. And I need, knowing the id of one category, to find out the id of the parent. And if there is also a 3 parent, then his too. I actually implemented it. But I have a constant appeal to the model. So is it possible or better not to do it? Though the request simplified.

foreach ($results2 as $result2) {
            if  ($result2['parent_id'] > 0) {
                $category_link = $result2['parent_id'].'_'.$result2['category_id'];
                $category_info = $this->model_catalog_category->getCategoryParent($result2['parent_id']);
                if ($category_info['parent_id'] > 0) {
                    $category_link = $category_info['parent_id'].'_'.$result2['parent_id'].'_'.$result2['category_id'];
                }
            } else {
                $category_link = $result2['category_id'];
            }

          $json['items']['categories'][] = array(
            'name'        => $result2['name'],
            'href'        => $this->url->link('product/category', 'path='.$category_link)
          );
        }

I need the path to a category to consist of all its parents. Thanks in advance!

Install seo_pro and you won't have to reinvent the wheel
Well, or look at how the path for the category is built in it.
