Split configuration in more files in Silex - php

Question

I am using Silex PHP framework.
I have two files, the first is app.php:
<?php
require_once __DIR__.'/../vendor/autoload.php';
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Response;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\ParameterBag;
use Silex\ControllerProviderInterface;
$app = new Silex\Application();
$app['debug'] = true;
$app->register(new Silex\Provider\DoctrineServiceProvider(), array(
'db.options' => array(
'driver' => 'pdo_mysql',
'host' => 'localhost',
'dbname' => 'testapp',
'user' => 'root',
'password' => 'turoke55u',
),
));
$app->before(function (Request $request) {
if (0 === strpos($request->headers->get('Content-Type'), 'application/json')) {
$data = json_decode($request->getContent(), true);
$request->request->replace(is_array($data) ? $data : array());
}
});
$app->mount('/', include 'login.php');
$app->run();
And the second is login.php:
<?php
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request;
$login = $app['controllers_factory'];
$login->post('/apiv1/user/login', function (Request $request) use ($login) {
$userinfo = array(
'email' => $request->request->get('email'),
'mode' => $request->request->get('mode'),
'password' => $request->request->get('password'),
);
$passwordcoding = sha1($userinfo['email']."66643asd");
$emailverification = "SELECT email,password FROM user WHERE email='".$userinfo['email']."'";
$selectemail = $login['db']->$fetchAll('SELECT * FROM user');
var_dump($emailverification);
});
return $login;
When I run the select on db I get this error:
Cannot use object of type Silex\ControllerCollection as array in /mnt/hgfs/Share_Folder/frontend/src/login.php on line 13
Does someone know a solution for that issue?
I have a second question, why if I change in app.php this:
$app->mount('/', include 'login.php');
To this:
$app->mount('/apiv1/user/login', include 'login.php');
And in login.php:
$login->post('/',
Like in the Silex documentation, the framework doesn't work?

Answer 1

You have a silly error in your function signature:
<?php
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request;
$login = $app['controllers_factory'];
$login->post('/apiv1/user/login', function (Request $request) use ($login) {
// ^^^^^^^^
// this should be $app, not $login as this function is using the container
$userinfo = array(
'email' => $request->request->get('email'),
'mode' => $request->request->get('mode'),
'password' => $request->request->get('password'),
);
$passwordcoding = sha1($userinfo['email']."66643asd");
$emailverification = "SELECT email,password FROM user WHERE email='".$userinfo['email']."'";
// here you're using the $login as the container and it's a controller collection, so in the signature use the container not the $login
// vvvvvvvvvvvv
$selectemail = $login['db']->$fetchAll('SELECT * FROM user');
var_dump($emailverification);
});
return $login;
As for the second doubt you should elaborate more on "the framework doesn't work", explain the symptoms and the output (if error which error?)
