Phalcon: why router's routes are not being called? - php

Question

I have the following index.php:
<?php
use Phalcon\Loader;
use Phalcon\Mvc\View;
use Phalcon\DI\FactoryDefault;
use Phalcon\Mvc\Url as UrlProvider;
use Phalcon\Db\Adapter\Pdo\Mysql as DbAdapter;
use Phalcon\Mvc\Micro;
try {
// Register an autoloader
$loader = new Loader();
$loader->registerDirs(array(
__DIR__ . '/controllers/',
__DIR__ . '/models/'
))->register();
// Create a DI
$app = new Micro();
$di = new FactoryDefault();
$app->setDI($di);
// Setup the view component
$di->set('view', function () {
$view = new View();
$view->setViewsDir('/views/');
return $view;
});
// Setup a base URI so that all generated URIs include the "legacy" folder
$di->set('url', function () {
$url = new UrlProvider();
$url->setBaseUri('/legacy/api/v1/');
return $url;
});
$di->set('router', function() {
// require __DIR__.'/config/routes.php';
// return $router;
$router = new Phalcon\Mvc\Router(false);
$router->add('/', array(
"controller" => "site",
"action" => "index"
));
$router->notFound(
[
"controller" => "site",
"action" => "ping"
]
);
var_dump($router);
return $router;
});
$app->handle();
} catch (\Exception $e) {
// Do Something I guess, return Server Error message
$app->response->setStatusCode(500, "Server Error");
$app->response->setContent($e->getMessage());
$app->response->send();
}
and the following structure:
--api
----v1
------config
-------- routes.php
------controllers
--------SiteController.php
------models
------views
The problem is that I think my application ignores the router, because I'm getting the following error: if I navigate to "/" - Matched route doesn't have an associated handler. While if I go to some random location like "/12321" it returns Not-Found handler is not callable or is not defined.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Remember that you're setting as base uri /legacy/api/v1/ so all your routes are intended to be appended to that.
$di->set('url', function () {
$url = new UrlProvider();
$url->setBaseUri('/legacy/api/v1/');
return $url;
});
You can't simply access: / but instead, you've to visit /legacy/api/v1/ or if you want to visit /user, you've to visit /legacy/api/v1/user.

I also had some problems with phalcon (1.3.x) routes too. Here's what I did to make them working the way I wanted. Took me a long time to figure that out:
/** #var \Phalcon\Mvc\Router $router */
$router = new Phalcon\Mvc\Router(FALSE); // does not create default routes
$router->removeExtraSlashes(TRUE);
$router->setDefaults(array(
'namespace' => 'Namespace\Controller',
'controller' => 'index',
'action' => 'index'
));
$router->notFound(array(
'controller' => 'index',
'action' => 'show404'
));
Hope it helps.
