Fatfree route optional token

[FreeFAT]

Hi everyone!

My URLs coud be like 

1) /site/guestbooks/add

2) /site/guestbooks/edit/23

3) /site/guestbooks/delete/23

4) /site/guestbooks/show/100

I wish construct one route and at the end of url (1) there is no token.

I want to have a one pattern of tokens.

If I constrict like that:

GET /site/@table/@action/@param=Admin->test

then this url /site/guestbooks/add doesn't work and shows 404 error.

What to do?

I need one route pattern for all routes like /site/guestbooks/add and /site/guestbooks/edit/23

Thanks.

is there for example smth like

GET /site/@table/@action/{@param}=Admin->test

{...} -- means that it is optional... it could be not passed

Is there something in fatfree framework?

Thanks

Hi,

I'm not really sure if you can achieve that with only one route pattern.

But if you're ok with two, then you can try something like this:

GET /site/@table/@action = @table->@action
GET /site/@table/@action/@param = @table->@action

Then, per your examples:

1) /site/guestbooks/add ----  will call Guestbooks->add()

2) /site/guestbooks/edit/23 ---- will call Guestbooks->edit() --- inside this edit() method you can access $f3->get('PARAMS.param') to get the value of @param

3) /site/guestbooks/delete/23 ---- will call Guestbooks->delete() --- inside this delete() method you can access $f3->get('PARAMS.param') to get the value of @param

4) /site/guestbooks/show/100 ---- will call Guestbooks->show() --- inside this show() method you can access $f3->get('PARAMS.param') to get the value of @param

GET /site/@table/@action = @table->@action
GET /site/@table/@action/@param = @table->@action

I want to make it in one pattern line. Is it possible?

You wrote 2 lines and what about make it in one like 

GET /site/@table/@action(:/@param) = @table->@action

I wish /site/guestbooks/add ---- opens Guestbooks->add() only by one pattern

Is there some solving?

As I've stated on my previous reply, I'm not really sure if that can be done with just one route as I didn't find any docs on optional parameters.

Maybe route grouping is what you need:

There will be some conflict:

GET /site/@table/@action = @table->@action
GET /site/@table/@action/@param = @table->@action

/site/guestbooks/add ----  will call Guestbooks->add()

/site/guestbooks/add/343 ----  will call Guestbooks->add()

That's why I should do like

GET /site/@table/@action = @table->add
GET /site/@table/@action/@param = @table->@action (then here I should check @action for 'add' value)

Hi,

No conflicts, if you access it through: '/site/guestbooks/add' or  '/site/guestbooks/add/343', they will both call Guestbooks->add() which is perfectly acceptable.

Inside the add() method, you can then check for the presence of PARAMS.param. If it's set, it will be '343' in this example.

Example:

public function add() {
    $f3 = \Base::instance();
    if($f3->exists('PARAMS.param', $param)) {
        $this->somethingWithParam($param);
    } else {
        $this->somethingWithoutParam();
    }
}

private function somethingWithParam($param) {
    // do stuff with $param
}

private function somethingWithoutParam() {
    // do stuff without $param
}

if you want, you can try it like this:

GET /site/@table/@action* = @table->@action

and then check $f3->get('PARAMS') for additional parameters of any length.
