Router

class Router extends Router implements WarmableInterface

This Router creates the Loader only when the cache is empty.

Methods

setOptions(array $options)

Sets options.

from Router
setOption(string $key, mixed $value)

Sets an option.

from Router
mixed getOption(string $key)

Gets an option value.

from Router
RouteCollection getRouteCollection()

Gets the RouteCollection instance associated with this Router.

setContext(RequestContext $context)

Sets the request context.

from Router
RequestContext getContext()

Gets the request context.

from Router
setConfigCacheFactory(ConfigCacheFactoryInterface $configCacheFactory)

Sets the ConfigCache factory to use.

from Router
string generate(string $name, mixed $parameters = array(), int $referenceType = self::ABSOLUTE_PATH)

Generates a URL or path for a specific route based on the given parameters.

from Router
array match(string $pathinfo)

Tries to match a URL path with a set of routes.

Parameters

string $key The key
mixed $value The value

RouteCollection getRouteCollection()

Gets the RouteCollection instance associated with this Router.

Return Value

setContext(RequestContext $context)

Sets the request context.

Parameters

RequestContext $context

RequestContext getContext()

Gets the request context.

Return Value

setConfigCacheFactory(ConfigCacheFactoryInterface $configCacheFactory)

Sets the ConfigCache factory to use.

Parameters

ConfigCacheFactoryInterface $configCacheFactory

string generate(string $name, mixed $parameters = array(), int $referenceType = self::ABSOLUTE_PATH)

Generates a URL or path for a specific route based on the given parameters.

Parameters that reference placeholders in the route pattern will substitute them in the path or host. Extra params are added as query string to the URL.

When the passed reference type cannot be generated for the route because it requires a different host or scheme than the current one, the method will return a more comprehensive reference that includes the required params. For example, when you call this method with $referenceType = ABSOLUTEPATH but the route requires the https scheme whereas the current scheme is http, it will instead return an ABSOLUTEURL with the https scheme and the current host. This makes sure the generated URL matches the route in any case.

If there is no route with the given name, the generator must throw the RouteNotFoundException.

Parameters

string $name The name of the route
mixed $parameters An array of parameters
int $referenceType The type of reference to be generated (one of the constants)

Return Value

string The generated URL

Exceptions

RouteNotFoundException If the named route doesn't exist
MissingMandatoryParametersException When some parameters are missing that are mandatory for the route
InvalidParameterException When a parameter value for a placeholder is not correct because it does not match the requirement

array match(string $pathinfo)

Tries to match a URL path with a set of routes.

If the matcher can not find information, it must throw one of the exceptions documented below.

Parameters

string $pathinfo The path info to be parsed (raw format, i.e. not urldecoded)

Return Value

array An array of parameters

Exceptions

ResourceNotFoundException If the resource could not be found
MethodNotAllowedException If the resource was found but the request method is not allowed

array matchRequest(Request $request)

Tries to match a request with a set of routes.

If the matcher can not find information, it must throw one of the exceptions documented below.

Parameters

Request $request

Return Value

array An array of parameters

Exceptions

ResourceNotFoundException If no matching resource could be found
MethodNotAllowedException If a matching resource was found but the request method is not allowed
