Symfony 为 mydomain.com/parameter 创建路由

Question

I need to create a routing rule in Symfony to receive a parameter as the first value after the domain.

I mean, www.mydomain.com/myusername

Username is a variable to show the profile of an user.

Is it possible that in some cases, Symfony identify it needs to consider this as a variable (dynamically) and in other cases it needs to follow the normal case with /controller/action?

Answer 1

I'm not entirely sure what version you're referring to but it's possible to have such conflicting routing in Symfony 2. What you should do is add your route at the very bottom of app/config/routing.yml . The order is important, because in Symfony the first matched route always wins as stated in the docs

The Symfony router will always choose the first matching route it finds.

So, by having all of your other routes come before the matching route for domain.com/* everything else should be working.

I must say, though, this isn't considered a best practice because it's usually harder to maintain and debug. Furthermore, if you have a lot of routes it would take considerably longer time for your requests to complete, because it would go though all routes until it matches the last route.

Answer 2

Add your parameter as an optional one like:

public functionName($parameter = null)
{
    if($parameter = null)
    { //render regular view }
    else
    { //render user profile view}
}

Hope i got your question right Cheers
