Hi,
I'm building a CMS of sorts, with an undefined number of unique URLs. I'd like all URLs to be redirected to my Index controller. What do I need to make my route in order for this to work?
I've tried:
'/*' => [ 'controller' => 'index',
'action' => 'index']But that doesn't work. I know I could probably just route all 404 traffic to index, but that seems dirty.
That didn't work, but this regex did: /(.*)
I'm confused as to why I didn't try that before posting.
The URLs aren't intended to point to a controller or action - they are simply URLs like you'd see on any reasonably complex website - merely referring to an address of a page. So I can't break up the URL in the route - all I want is the full string I can then process in code. My regex routes all traffic to the index controller, and $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] contains the requested URI - in your example "/Title/edit".
In my particular case, the url musn't be 2 "words" long. It could be 3, 4 10, 20, and the path is entirely up to the users. There's essentially no restriction to the format of the URLs, so trying to make them fit into even a semi-rigid structure of controller/action. In your originally suggested solution, I would still have to break up the "article" parameter just like I'm doing with the full URL now.
Nonetheless, I do appreciate you taking the time for this discussion.
Sign in is done through Shibboleth - before Phalcon even gets touched.
But there will be special pages - true - I imagine they'll be declared in later rules like you suggest.
That's a good idea.
