Proper way yo deal with uri segments? - dgvirtual - 10-11-2021

I have my development environment at the web server root (accessible through http://localhost:8080/), but my production installation is in a subdirectory of the web server root (https://site.lt/my_subdir/).

For some reason, the uri helper on the production environment returns the subdirectory name as the first element in the segment array. So I have to use funny workarounds to get the same segment in both installs, see code below. I do have proper base url settings in the .env files in each environment (app.baseURL variable points to the above-mentioned addresses)...

So, my question is: is there a better way to use the CI4 uri helper? Is there a bug in the code?

PHP Code:
$uri current_url(true);
if (
$uri->getSegment(1) == 'my_subdir'$sgm 5//bug in uri?
else $sgm 4;
if (
$uri->getSegment($sgm) == 'pdf'$variant 'pdf';
else 
$variant 'regular'

I think it’s a bug. I set up a subdomain instead of a subdirectory to avoid this problem.

I think it will be fun https://site.lt/my_subdir/.env

I did not use the real website name Smile, but yeh, next time I will use a non-existent domain in my examples.  And in  my server only the public folder is in the public subdirectory, the application itself, with the .env file, is two levels up in the file tree (instead of the usual 1 level), not publically accessible.

Thanks for confirming that... subdomains are harder because we can only have one SSL certificate for the site, but yeh, that would be a workaround.

Try displaying the following Server details and write your own:

PHP Code:
echo <pre>// add line feeds
  
print _r($_SERVER);
echo 
</pre>

I used to have the one SSL certificate issue (and numerous outages) with my previous hosting supplier.
Then I moved to a cheaper provider (with far less issues) using CPANEL, and Let's Encrypt subdomains are automatically added.  Smile

Compare the variables on localhost and remote that have a PATH in the name. Find the localhost path to the helper path, then modify the remote path.
