url encode - donpwinston - 09-28-2022
I've a controller below. When I redirect the parameter is getting decoded and CodeIgniter can't match the URL and I get a 404. What's going on here?
My route is:
PHP Code:
$routes->get('/operations/path-item/(:segment)', 'Operations::path_item/$1');
PHP Code:
public function data()
{
$path = $this->request->getGet('path');
if ($path)
return redirect()->to(base_url("/operations/path-item/' . urlencode($path")));
$download = $this->request->getGet('download');
if ($download)
return redirect()->to(base_url('/operations/download-item/' . urlencode($download)));
print view('header', [
'title' => 'Data Directory',
'meta_desc' => self::META_DESC,
]);
print view('Operations/data', [
'env' => getenv('BNCENV'),
'today' => date('md'),
]);
print view('footer');
}

Why do you use urlencode() for $path?

Because path will equal something like '/data/reports/some_file.txt'
so <a href="/operations/path-item/<?= $path ?>">click me</a>
will result in <a href="/operations/path-item//data/reports/some_file.txt">click me</a>
(It appears in some cases that CodeIgniter url decodes and url encodes html form data for you. I'm not sure if I like that.)

Sorry, I don't get what you say.
In my opinion, the code should be:
Code:
base_url("/operations/path-item/$path")RE: url encode - donpwinston - 09-29-2022

Code:base_url("/operations/path-item/$path")
The $path var = '/data/reports/some_file.txt' therefore the url will = '/operations/path-item//data/reports/some_file.txt' and the url will not work.
Need to encode $path so url will = '/operations/path-item/%2Fdata%2Freports...' then this will work.
RE: url encode - kenjis - 09-29-2022
%2F equals /
/operations/path-item//data/reports/some_file.txt and /operations/path-item/%2Fdata%2Freports%2Fsome_file.txt
are the same.
If you want to capture a part of a URI that has slashes, you need to use (:any):

No.
:any allows an arbitrary number of segments. That's not what I want. I need '/data/report/some_file.txt' to be one segment. To do so I need to url encode it. CodeIgniter is decoding it for some reason.

'/data/report/some_file.txt' is not a segment, but three segments.
The solutions I can come up with are:
1. Use query string, not URI segment
2. Use another encoding method that is safe as URI, not URL encoding
CI4 probably encodes/decodes URI string for normalizing the URI.

Just try
PHP Code:
redirect()->to("/operations/path-item/' . $path);
