Usage

HttpRouter

<?php

require __DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php';

// $_SERVER => ['REQUEST_METHOD' => [ 'method' => 'POST' ]]
$router = new \Corpus\Router\HttpRouter('\\Corpus\\Controllers', $_SERVER);

$route = $router->match('test/controller:action');

// $route =
//	[
//		'controller' => '\\Corpus\\Controllers\\test\\controller',
//		'action'     => 'action',
//		'options'    => [],
//		'request'    => [ 'method' => 'POST' ],
//	]

// ----------------

$route = $router->match('test/controller?query=whatwhat');

// $route =
//	[
//		'controller' => '\\Corpus\\Controllers\\test\\controller',
//		'action'     => NULL,
//		'options'    => [ 'query'  => 'whatwhat' ],
//		'request'    => [ 'method' => 'POST' ],
//	]

// ----------------

$route = $router->match($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);

// $route = Current Request

// ----------------

$url = $router->generate('myNamespace\\admin', 'index');

// $url = '/myNamespace/admin:index'

// ----------------

$url = $router->generate('\\Corpus\\Controllers\\myNamespace\\admin', 'index');

// $url = '/myNamespace/admin:index'

// ----------------

try {
	$url = $router->generate('\\Invalid\\Absolute\\Controller', 'index');
}catch (\Corpus\Router\Exceptions\NonRoutableException $e) {
	$url = 'fail';
}

// $url = 'fail'

Class: \Corpus\Router\HttpRouter

<?php
namespace Corpus\Router;

class HttpRouter {
	public const ACTION = 'action';
	public const CONTROLLER = 'controller';
	public const OPTIONS = 'options';
}

Method: HttpRouter->__construct

function __construct(string $rootNamespace [, array $server = []])

Parameters:

• array $server - The $_SERVER array - optional

Method: HttpRouter->match

function match(string $path) : ?array

Match given path to a route array.

A non-null route is not guaranteed to exist - just to be well formed.
It is up the implementations dispatch mechanism to decide it the route exists

The returned route array the the a shape of

[  
    // The controller action. Definition varies by router.  
    RouterInterface:ACTION     => 'action',  
  
    // An expected class name based on given rules. Not guaranteed to exist.  
    RouterInterface:CONTROLLER => '\Controller\www\index',  
  
    // Router specific but akin to $_GET - may contain additional options  
    RouterInterface:OPTIONS    => ['key' => 'value'],  
]  

Match given path to a route array.

A non-null route is not guaranteed to exist - just to be well formed.
