How to loop the API results which are paginated

WordPress Paginated API results

<?php 
/**
 * Let's imagine that we need the issues number from an github organization
 * The issues API results are limited to 100 per page so we need to call this recursively
 * $offset (int) = the number of pages to skip for the current request
 */
function request_issues_number( $offset = 0 ) {

  $page = 1;
  if ( ! empty( $offset ) ) {
    $page = $offset + 1;
  }

  $response = $this->github_request( '/orgs/:org/issues?page=' . $page . '&state=all&per_page=100' );


  if ( 'OK' !== wp_remote_retrieve_response_message( $response ) || 200 !== wp_remote_retrieve_response_code( $response ) ) {
    wp_send_json_error( $response );
  }
  $json = wp_remote_retrieve_body( $response );

  $issues = json_decode( $json );

  $count = 0;
  if ( ! empty($issues) ) {
    foreach ( $issues as $issue ) {
      $count++;
    }
  }

  if ( !empty( $offset ) ) {
    $count = (int)$count + (int)$offset * 100;
  }

  $issues_nr = $count;

  if ( count( $issues ) > 99 ) {
    $issues_nr = $this->request_issues_number( $page );
  }

  return $issues_nr;
}
