Symfony 4.1 i18n 路由前缀：排除路由

Question

I have a i18n project running on Symfony 4.1.

I want to achieve some routing like:

• / => a "Choose language" page route
• /fr/ or /en/ => the homepage route
• /fr/foo/, /en/bar, etc => the other routes

Following this article , I'm using annotations to handle routing and I set a global prefix to my annotations routing :

site:
    resource: '../src/Controller/'
    type: annotation
    prefix:
        en: '/en'
        fr: '/fr'

This way, all the routes defined in annotations from '../src/Controller/' are prefixed, which leads to a conflict between my "Choose language" page and the homepage.

I want to exclude the "Choose language" page from the i18n prefixing, so I'll be able to use "/" for this page, when the homepage could stay on /fr or /en.

Any ideas to achieve this?

Answer 1

Defining this route at top of annotations.yaml without prefix option:

_choose_language:
    path: /
    controller: App\Controller\ChooseLanguageController

site:
    resource: '../src/Controller/'
    type: annotation
    prefix:
        en: '/en'
        fr: '/fr'

and don't use route annotation for this special controller:

class ChooseLanguageController
{
    public function __invoke()
    {
        return new Response('Choose Language!');
    }
}

then this action is being excluded from i18n prefixing.
