Documentation

The Router is automatically loaded by the Core module.

Usage

The Router is used to define routes for your application. You can define routes in the 'config/routes.json' file.

Example

{
  "routes": [
    {
      "request": "GET",
      "path": "/",
      "controller": "HomeController",
      "method": "index"
    },
    {
      "request": "GET",
      "path": "/user/{id}",
      "controller": "UserController",
      "method": "show"
    },
    {
      "request": "POST",
      "path": "/user",
      "controller": "UserController",
      "method": "store"
    }
  ]
}

Route Parameters

You can define route parameters by using curly braces {} in the path. The parameters will be passed to the controller method as an array of arguments.

Example

{
  "routes": [
    {
      "request": "GET",
      "path": "/user/{id}",
      "controller": "UserController",
      "method": "show"
    }
  ]
}

In the above example, the id parameter will be passed to the show method of the UserController as an argument. In the controller you can access the parameter like this:

public function show($args) {
  // $args->id will contain the value of the 'id' parameter
}

Route Request Methods

You can define the request method for the route by using the request key in the route definition. The request method can be 'GET', 'POST', 'PUT', 'PATCH', 'DELETE' or 'OPTIONS'.

Route Controller

You can define the controller and method to be called for the route by using the controller and method keys in the route definition.
