Symfony 3 - Route excluding beginning of specific path (url) - php

I'm creating an application with Symfony 3.2.9, and I would to do a Admin panel to manage application. Application works like CMS, so is creating new pages with URL, like domain.com/pagename1 and also domain.com/pagename1/subpagelevel2 ect. Problem is when I want to create URL for Admin panel, and URL should looks like: domain.com/admin, but also admin panel need some sub pages, like domain.com/admin/manage or domain.com/admin/manage/edit/1 ect.
I created DefaultController with routing like :
/**
* #Route("/", name="homepage")
*/
and AdminController with routing like :
/**
* #Route("/admin", name="admin")
*/
Problem is that when I want to dynamically create new sub page of application I need to create routing like:
/**
* #Route("/{page}")
*/
But this overwrite my Admin panel sub pages (eg. domain.com/admin/manage).
Is it way, to exclude or overwrite path from default DefaultController by AdminController? I want to have possibility to create all URL-s from DefaultController excepts paths beginning like domain.com/admin ... and so on.

From documention in https://symfony.com/doc/current/routing.html you can use the requirements parameter to specify a more strict match
I guess something like this whould work:
DefaultController:
/**
* #Route("/", name="homepage")
*/
AdminController:
/**
* #Route("/admin", name="admin")
*/
Other Controller:
/**
* we exclude page=admin from this controller
* #Route("/{page}", requirements={"page": "^(?!admin).+"}))
*/

Routes are searched in the order they are listed - so put the most generic at the end of the list, and it will find and use /admin before /{page}
For example, one of my last routes at the bottom of app/conf/routing.yml is
# http://symfony.com/doc/current/routing/redirect_trailing_slash.html
remove_trailing_slash:
path: /{url}
defaults:
_controller: AppBundle:Default:removeTrailingSlash
requirements:
url: .*/$
methods: [GET]

Cleanest on your use case:
Why not simply create a separate Bundle for Admin and put a prefix in AdminBundle routes?
Depend on routing orders and/or REGEX in routes is not recommended just to avoid a Bundle Creation. This is for what Bundles have been thought.
app/config/routing.yml
admin:
resource: "#AdminBundle/Controller/"
type: annotation
prefix: /admin
Then, all controllers/routes under AdminBundle will work under /admin prefix.
For example, IndexController/DefaultController/WhatEverController with this route inside AdminBundle:
/**
* #Route("/")
*/
public function indexAction()
{
//My code
}
Will match "/admin" instead of "/"
And:
/**
* #Route("/{page}")
*/
public function indexAction()
{
//My code
}
Will match "/admin/{page}" instead of "/{page}"

Since Symfony 5.1, you can define route priority :
/**
* #Route("/admin", name="admin", priority=10)
*/
/**
* #Route("/{slug}", name="pages", priority=99)
*/

Symfony 2 route with no custom controller code

I have my routes defined using annotations in my SF2 application, however there are a handful of pages which although they have a distinct route and Twig template they require no controller code whatsoever which leads to empty methods such as this:
/**
* #Route(
* "/courselimit",
* name = "course_limit"
* )
* #Template("CRMPiccoBundle:Course:Limit.html.twig")
*
* #param Request $request
*
* #throws \Exception
*/
public function courseLimitAction(Request $request)
{
}
This, to me, seems pointless and messy. Is there a way to avoid this in SF2 without converting all my routes to be managed in YAML files?
You would edit app/config/routing.yml like so:
# app/config/routing.yml
course_limit:
path: /courselimit
defaults:
_controller: FrameworkBundle:Template:template
template: path/Limit.html.twig
Examples are shown in the Render Template without a custom Controller:
http://symfony.com/doc/2.7/templating/render_without_controller.html

Symfony Routing not making sense

I'm teaching myself Symfony. And the routing doesn't make any sense.
I have a postController class with a few actions. Originally the crud generator from the command line gave me this;
/**
* Post controller.
*
* #Route("/post")
*/
class PostController extends Controller
{
/**
* Lists all Post entities.
*
* #Route("/", name="post_index")
* #Method("GET")
*/
public function indexAction()
{
//
}
//
}
What I want to achieve is to remove the #Route from the class itself. Thus I want my indexAction to be the the homepage, and all other actions in my class to still start with /post. For example, this is what I want;
class PostController extends Controller
{
/**
* Lists all Post entities.
*
* #Route("/", name="homepage")
* #Method("GET")
*/
public function indexAction()
{
//
}
/**
* Finds and displays a Post entity.
*
* #Route("post/{id}", name="post_show")
* #Method("GET")
*/
public function showAction(Post $post)
{
//
}
// what I want for the showAction should count for all other Actions as well
}
When I make the change I get an error;
No route found for "GET /post/"
Can somebody please explain to me what I'm doing wrong and how to fix this. I don't think it is something major, it's probably something small that I just don't see. I want to make that indexAction my main action, the action when the website opens after a user logged in. Thank you
Your route specification requires {id} parameter which is obligatory so there's no "GET /post/" route indeed. You need to do one of the following
Pass id value and access /post/1 for example
Remove {id} from route specification and then you can access /post/
Pass default value for id so you can access both /post/ and /post/1. To do that your route specification should look like #Route("post/{id}", name="post_show", defaults={"id" = 1})
No route found for "/post/" is correct
because there is no route "/post/"
in your example theres only "/" and "/post/{id}"
so it makes perfect sense, i prefer to use the yml notation and prefixes so its not bound to a class
check the "YAML" tabs in the DOCS

Symfony2 - Multiple slug in one route

In Symfony is it possible to access a controller through a route that potentially can contain indefinite number of slug, taking advantage from internal routing system?
e.g.
my_route:
pattern: /{slug_parent}/{slug_child}/{slug_nephew}/{slug_...}/...
as
www.mydomain.com/math/arithmetic/fractions
but also
www.mydomain.com/tech/android
It can be done, but instead of creating routes in config YML I would recommend to use #Route annotations. Add annotations in the controller class, like this:
/**
* #Route("/{slug_parent}/{slug_child}")
* #Route("/{slug_parent}/{slug_child}/{slug_nephew}/")
* #Route("/{slug_parent}/{slug_child}/{slug_nephew}/{slug_...}/")
*/
public function yourControllerAction()
{
...
}

why my symfony routing is not working?

hi i have a problem with my routing in symfony. my routing_dev looks like:
_test:
resource: "#MyBundle/Controller/DefaultController.php"
type: annotation
prefix: /test
then i have a controller:
/**
* #Route("/", name="_test")
* #Template()
*/
public function indexAction($name)
{
return array('name' => $name);
}
and when i try to run the /test i get the message:
No route found for "GET /test"
404 Not Found - NotFoundHttpException
1 linked Exception: ResourceNotFoundException ยป
i dont know where the error is. i need your help. how to find the problem?
EDIT: I'm working with the app_dev.php not app.php
First, you must be sure that routing.yml import the file routing_dev.yml.
Then, you must define the $name variable passed in argument in the route. If this argument is optional, you can give it a default value.
Moreover, note that you can put the prefix directly in the annotation.
/**
* #Route("/blog")
*/
class TheClassController extends Controller
{
/**
* #Route("/{name}", name="_test", defaults={"name" = "Jean"})
* #Template()
*/
public function indexAction($name)
{
return array('name'=>$name);
}
}
After, you can run run the command php app/console router:debug for test the route.
Maybe you have to use http://your.site/app_dev.php/test url. Or copy your routing information to routing.yml (not routing_dev.yml)
Are you actually typing into your url /test? Because your route is just "/", the name you have given is used to generate that route from a template. If you want the url to be /test you should change your route parameter to #Route("/test", name="test")
you explicit have to set the route for an action. not just for the whole controller.
your routing.yml should look like:
mybundle_controller:
resource: "#MyBundle/Controller"
type: annotation
prefix: /test
your controller like:
/**
* #Route("/") #Note you can omit this, since you set the prefix in the routing.yml
*
*/
public function indexAction($name)
{
/**
* #Route("/", name="_test"
* #Template()
*/
return array('name' => $name);
}
try to run php app/console router:debug
it should return you something like
_test ANY /test/
If you are using Symfony 4 you just need to install doctrine/annotations package. To download it, in your terminal run:
composer require annotations
The command will download the package into your vendor folder and add new annotations.yaml file under config/routes folder. Make sure annotations.yaml has following lines:
controllers:
resource: ../../src/Controller/
type: annotation
You do not need any additional route settings inside config/routes.yaml file.

symfony2 routing with annotations not working

I just downloaded symfony2 and am beginning to play with routing via annotations. I have my app/config/routing.yml set in the bundle I created to use annotations, and have deleted the Acme bundle and all routing references to it. That said, I've tried creating a couple different route annotations in my controller like #Route("/") and #Route("/hello/{name}") but I'm always greeted with a 404 error (using the dev environment). If I add the route in routing.yml it works just fine even though the routing is configured to use annotations. For whatever reason, my annotations are seemingly being ignored.
Here is my app/config/routing.yml:
DanDefaultBundle:
resource: "#DanDefaultBundle/Controller/"
type: annotation
prefix: /
And here is my controller method:
/**
* #Route("/")
* #Template()
*/
public function indexAction()
{
return array('name' => 123);
}
I've included the Sensio\Bundle\FrameworkExtraBundle\Configuration\Route namespace - everything as far as I can tell is correct with what I've seen in the documentation. What am I overlooking that's causing symfony2 to seemingly ignore my routing annotations? Again, if I add the routes to the routing yaml everything works so my bundle is working - but annotations seem to be ignored.
Thanks!
Dan
UPDATE:
It looks like I had to add the routes to routing_dev.yml in addition to routing.yml since I was operating in the dev environment. I suppose that's so you have have different routes in-between development and production? I suppose special care will have to be taken to make sure those routes stay in sync?
You accidentally removed the inclusion of routing.yml from routing_dev.yml.
if you use Route Prefix in your routing.yml
you must declare about your prefix above your class declaration like that :
/**
* #Route("/")
*/
class PostController extends Controller
{
/**
* #Route("/")
* #Template()
*/
public function indexAction()
{
}
/**
* #Route("{id}")
* #Template()
*/
public function showAction($id)
{
}
}
Like into Sensio FrameworkExtra Bundle Documentation
