function node_load_multiple in Drupal 7

Same name and namespace in other branches
  1. 8 core/modules/node/node.module \node_load_multiple()

Loads node entities from the database.

This function should be used whenever you need to load more than one node from the database. Nodes are loaded into memory and will not require database access if loaded again during the same page request.

@todo Remove $conditions in Drupal 8.

Parameters

$nids: An array of node IDs.

$conditions: (deprecated) An associative array of conditions on the {node} table, where the keys are the database fields and the values are the values those fields must have. Instead, it is preferable to use EntityFieldQuery to retrieve a list of entity IDs loadable by this function.

$reset: Whether to reset the internal node_load cache.

Return value

An array of node objects indexed by nid.
