Slim php framework 3 passing email in argument not working

Question

I am having an error with slim PHP framework 3.

"The requested resource /try/foo@bar.com/secret was not found on this server."

I am new to slim PHP framework. When I enter email address " foo@bar " and password " secret " it yields a blank error (ie "" ). When I enter email address " baz " and password " secret2 " then it yields no error message.

I am basically making web service for Android, where the user will enter an email address and password and the required query will be returned in JSON format.

$app - > get('/try/{email}/{password}', function($request, $response, $args) {
    include_once('db.php');




    $email = $request - > getAttribute('email');
    echo $email;
    $password = $request - > getAttribute('password');
    echo $password;

    $sql = "select * from user where email='$email' and password='$password'";
    echo $sql;
    $result = mysqli_query($con, $sql);

    if (mysqli_num_rows($result) > 0) {
        // output data of each row
        $data[] = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result);
        header('Content-Type:application/json');
        echo json_encode($data);

    } else {
        echo "0 results";
    }

    mysqli_close($con);

});

Answer 1

@ is not a valid character inside an url: (see https://stackoverflow.com/a/1856809/1172363 )

You must create your link with urlencoded email value...

$app->urlFor("your_route_name", array("email" => urlencode($mail), "password" => urlencode($password));

In your case it would be (for example):

http://yourserver/try/foo%40bar/your_pass

Actually I solved this problem by encoding the parameter with Base64 logic.

btoa(criteria)

In the endpoint (mine is PHP) I did a base64decode operation.
