route + verification key

[Thomas Steindl]

Hey,

1. user registers account on: website/register

2. he gets an email sent to the email he provided

3. the email contains the link for verification 

4. user clicks the link and gets sent to website/register/verify.php?vkey=91cb65b234b0b5d67df68e0d7f72ed7e

test result: 

Not Found

HTTP 404 (GET /register/verify.php?vkey=91cb65b234b0b5d67df68e0d7f72ed7e)

How do I manage that in routing?

What I tried:

$f3->route('GET /register/verify/@vkey', 'Controller\UserController->registerverified');

$f3->route('GET /register/verify.php?vkey=', 'Controller\UserController->registerverified');

I`m confused, how to set the route since the paramater is dynamic obviously?

Thanks!!

Hi,

Why even send the user that "/register/verify.php?vkey=somekey" in the first place?

Why not just send the customer a "/register/verify/somekey" link and handle it inside the registerverified() method?

tl;dr: Do not use any ".php" directly on your routes.

Cheers.

Hi,

because I save the verification key when the user registers.

And when the user comes back (after clicking the link within the email) I check if the vkey isset; and get the stored vkey from db and compare both. If they match, all good, user gets rerouted.

I don´t know how I would achieve that using your proposal ( "/register/verify/somekey" ).

Thanks

function registerverified($f3, $params){

... $key = $params['key'];

}

get parameters are not part of the route ( ?vkey= ) .. you access them via f3->GET

also naming a route like a php file could cause issues with apache and htaccess

Hi,

What @PJH said or alternatively (depending on your app or if you don't want to keep passing $f3 and/or $params on all your methods) something like:

$f3 = \Base::instance();  // or get your F3 instance from someplace else
$key = $f3->get('PARAMS.vkey');

But do read the docs as recommended.

Cheers.

It´s what PJH said.

$f3->route('GET /register/verify/@vkey', 'Controller\UserController->registerverified');

and afterwards check if isset

$params['vkey']

Cheers, thanks again for your prompt replies!
