RESTful and auto routing improved

I have a controller App/Controllers/Api/Orders.php

Code:

<?php

namespace App\Controllers\Api;

use CodeIgniter\RESTful\ResourceController;

class Orders extends ResourceController
{
    protected $modelName = 'App\Models\Order';
    protected $format    = 'json';

    public function getIndex()
    {
        return $this->respond($this->model->findAll());
    }

    public function delete($id = null)
    {
        return $this->respond(['test' => 123]);
    }
}

If I'm trying to access /api/orders/ with GET request it works fine (so auto routing is working).
I'm trying to send a DELETE request: /api/orders/15 however I'm getting error 404. What am I doing wrong?

PHP Code:

/api/orders/delete/15 


What did you Try? What did you Get? What did you Expect?

Sorry, you can't use parameters with *index() method.
DELETE /api/orders/15 is routed to Orders::delete15().

So basically Auto Router Improved doesn't support the example from the Docs and the way to go is to define routes for api manually?

Code:

$routes->resource('photos');

// Equivalent to the following:
$routes->get('photos/new', 'Photos::new');
$routes->post('photos', 'Photos::create');
$routes->get('photos', 'Photos::index');
$routes->get('photos/(:segment)', 'Photos::show/$1');
$routes->get('photos/(:segment)/edit', 'Photos::edit/$1');
$routes->put('photos/(:segment)', 'Photos::update/$1');
$routes->patch('photos/(:segment)', 'Photos::update/$1');
$routes->delete('photos/(:segment)', 'Photos::delete/$1');

No, Auto Router Improved does not support the same URIs that $routes->resource() provides.

I sent a PR to improve it.

How do you think?
