Transform underscore to dash in segment_array URI function - El Forum - 11-14-2010

Hi guys !
I work with CodeIgniter for a few months now and i come to think about how to change value with underscore in an array to dash ones.
Because i wrote my own function to create menu and I'm using dash into the URL instead of underscore as method arguments.
The thing is i was using the URI function segment_array() but in take controllers and methods and arguments as the really like : with underscore because the dash ones are only for view and be pretty.
so i create my own function to take segment array with dash instead of underscore and i wanted to give to people who maybe need it !
So i made the MY_Uri.php library :
Code:
<?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
class MY_Uri extends CI_URI {
var $dash_segments = array();
function MY_Uri()
{
parent::CI_URI();
}
function dash_segment_array()
{
$CI =& get_instance();
$uri_array = $CI->uri->segment_array();
foreach($uri_array as $key => $value) :
if(preg_match_all('/[_]+/', $value ,$matches, PREG_SET_ORDER)) {
$new_uriarray[$key] = preg_replace('/[_]+/', '-', $value);
} else {
$new_uriarray[$key] = $value;
}
endforeach;
if(!empty($new_uriarray)) {
return $new_uriarray;
}
}
}Put it into your library's application folder and use the function like the other uri function !
Code:
ex : $this->uri->dash_segment_array();So now the array will be like that :
Code:
Array
{
[1] => [series]
[2] => [view]
[3] => [infos]
[4] => [name-of-your-serie]
}Instead of like that :
Code:
Array
{
[1] => [series]
[2] => [view]
[3] => [infos]
[4] => [name_of_your_serie]
}I'm not a programmer and I'm learning by myself by passion so if someone can make a better code and a cleaner one, I will be interested !
Thank you ^^

str_replace is faster then preg_replace
You only need to use preg_replace if using regx
