URI Routing: (:any) or (:segment)? |
Hi there,
I don't really understand the difference between (:any) and (:segment). The docs say that the placeholder (:any) "will match all characters from that point to the end of the URI. This may include multiple URI segments." and that the placeholder (:segment) "will match any character except for a forward slash (/) restricting the result to a single segment." PHP Code: URI = <baseurl>/part1/part2/part3 What I understand from the docs: a. (:placeholder) == (:any) --> $1 = 'part2/part3' b. (:placeholder) == (:segment) --> $1 = 'part2' What happens: c. (:placeholder) == (:any) --> $1 = 'part2', $2= 'part3', and so on... d. (:placeholder) == (:segment) --> $1 = 'part3' and tries to find Method 'part2' in a controller called 'part1'. (This I am not sure as I could not reproduce it) I also noticed that the behaviour of (:any) and (.+) is the same, although the docs explicitly say that "With regular expressions, you can also catch a segment containing a forward slash (‘/’), which would usually represent the delimiter between multiple segments." How can I make a. happen? I want to return everything what is stored in another folder (like ./css/pretty.css, ./index.html, /js/somefolder/some.js).
Hi, there are code examples here to get all parameters as an array or complete segment.
