Problem with Zend and addRoute() - zend-framework

With this code:
$frontController = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance();
$router = $frontController->getRouter();
$router->addRoute(
'test',
new Zend_Controller_Router_Route(
'/test/:action/:type/:id',
array(
'controller' => 'admin'
)
)
);
http://app/test/param1/param2/param3 -> OK
http://app/test/param1/param2/ -> FAIL
In the second case the application don't recognize param2.
It seems that the application needs the param3 in order to read the param2...
How can I do it?
Thanks!
Test with the code from #RageZ
$frontController = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance();
$router = $frontController->getRouter();
$router->addRoute(
'test',
new Zend_Controller_Router_Route(
'/test/:action/:type/:id',
array(
'controller' => 'admin',
'id' => 0
),
array(
'id' => '\d+'
)
)
);
http://app/test/ -> OK
http://app/test/some -> OK
http://app/test/some/more -> FAIL
http://app/test/some/more/andmore -> OK
Ideas?

try giving a default value to everything
$frontController = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance();
$router = $frontController->getRouter();
$router->addRoute(
'test',
new Zend_Controller_Router_Route(
'/test/:action/:type/:id',
array(
'controller' => 'admin',
'action' => 'index',
'type' => 'sometype',
'id' => 0
),
array(
'id' => '\d+'
)
)
);
Just tried your code in some test project and this fixed it hope it works for you!

You have to provide a default value if the parameter is optional.
$frontController = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance();
$router = $frontController->getRouter();
$router->addRoute(
'test',
new Zend_Controller_Router_Route(
'/test/:action/:type/:id',
array(
'controller' => 'admin',
'id' => 0
),
array(
'id' => '\d+'
)
)
);
Nothing to do with your question but it's a good practice to use the third param of addRoute. Zend Framework would verify that the parameters value match the format you have specified, in that case I suppose id is an integer.

Zend framework 1.12 pass optional parameter in Routing

My Routing is this.
$route = new Zend_Controller_Router_Route(
'car-insurance/*',
array(
'controller' => 'car',
'action' => 'moreinfo',
'module' => 'insurance',
)
);
$router->addRoute('car-insurance', $route);
This is working fine if user hit domain_name/car-insurance
But I want to redirect user to the single page if he hit on
domain_name/car-insurance/slug
$route = new Zend_Controller_Router_Route(
'car-insurance/:slug/*',
array(
'controller' => 'car',
'action' => 'moreinfo',
'module' => 'insurance',
'slug' =>''
)
);
$router->addRoute('car-insurance', $route);
Because $router->addRoute('car-insurance', $route); can initialize one time only.

Zend Router URL array merge

I have a problem with custom zend router.
this is my cat router
$frontController = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance();
$router = $frontController->getRouter();
$router->addRoute('categories', new Zend_Controller_Router_Route(
'video/k/:id/:title',array(
'controller' => 'video',
'module' => 'default' ,
'action' => 'k',
'id' => '',
'title' =>''
)
));
$params = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance()->getRequest()->getParams();
when i try htttp://dev.dummy.com/video/k/1/foo works fine but
$this->url(array_merge($params, array('order' => 'title'))) or
$this->url(array_merge($params, array('order' => 'title')),'categories')
$this->url(array_merge($params, array('order' => 'title')),'categories', true)
doesnt return htttp://dev.dummy.com/video/k/1/foo/order/title
still returning htttp://dev.dummy.com/video/k/1/foo.
Hope this help.
Thanks.
Try setting the third parameter $reset of the url-helper to true:
$this->url(array_merge($params, array('order' => 'title')), 'categories', true)
This will reset the default parameters.
(Documentation at http://framework.zend.com/manual/1.12/en/zend.view.helpers.html#zend.view.helpers.initial)
When doing the array_merge, the integer keys will be reset to start from beginning. Just append your array instead of the array_merge:
$router->addRoute('categories', new Zend_Controller_Router_Route(
'index/test/:id/:title',array(
'controller' => 'index',
'module' => 'default' ,
'action' => 'test',
'id' => '',
'title' => ''
)
));
echo $this->url(array('order' => 'title'));
Tried it with http://dev.dummy.com/video/k/1/foo and http://dev.dummy.chom/video/k/1/foo/order/title/. In both cases, the url helper output was - htttp://dev.dummy.com/video/k/1/foo/order/title

ZF Frontend and backend routing

I want something that sounds fairly simple to me but appears not to be.
My problem is that I need 2 routes voor my application:
Whenever the module is admin apply the following route:
$router->addRoute(
'backend',
new Zend_Controller_Router_Route('/:module/:controller/:action/:id/:value', array('module' => 'admin', 'controller' => 'dashboard', 'action' => 'index', 'id' => ':id', 'value' => ':value'))
);
Which works great. An example url could be: http://localhost/server/domains/demo/admin/images/album/3 where admin is the module, images the controller and so on.
All I want is that when a user goes to http://localhost/server/domains/demo he is redirected to the default module, index controller and index action. Everything after demo/ should be considered a single parameter (with unknown / possible).
I tried several things, from using Route_Regex, trying (.*) or (\d+), things I found all around online. Tried switching values, making them static, turning on/off removeDefaultRouter, but nothing worked. Below you can see my current bootstrap. Any ideas?
$router = $this->frontController->getRouter();
$router->removeDefaultRoutes();
$router->addRoute(
'backend',
new Zend_Controller_Router_Route('/admin/:controller/:action/:id/:value', array('module' => 'admin', 'controller' => 'dashboard', 'action' => 'index', 'id' => ':id', 'value' => ':value'))
);
$router->addRoute(
'frontend',
new Zend_Controller_Router_Route('/default/:controller/:action/(.*)', array('module' => 'default', 'controller' => 'index', 'action' => 'index'))
);
Backend works fine, but whenon the http://localhost/server/domains/demo/ I get the following error: No route matched the request
When given an answer, please explain why, because Zend_Route has always been a little vague for me. Thanks in advance!
Temp fix
Below the temporary fix that I use. It works exactly how I want, but I still believe that the same is achievable with Zend_Route without checking if the module is admin.
$router = $this->frontController->getRouter();
$uri = explode('demo/', $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
$uri = (isset($uri[1])) ? explode('/', $uri[1]) : $uri[0];
if($uri[0] == 'admin')
{
$route = new Zend_Controller_Router_Route('/:module/:controller/:action/:id/:value', array('module' => 'admin', 'controller' => 'dashboard', 'action' => 'index', 'id' => null, 'value' => null));
$router->addRoute('router', $route);
}
else
{
$route = new Zend_Controller_Router_Route('/*', array('module' => 'default', 'controller' => 'index', 'action' => 'index'));
$router->addRoute('router', $route);
}
It is worth doing if you really have to use this routes. For normal usage you can just generate links by
Zend_Layout::getMvcInstance()->getView()->Url(array('module' => 'admin'));
Zend_Layout::getMvcInstance()->getView()->Url(array('module' => 'default'));
and so on.
If you are not ok with this, try routes chaining:
$router = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance()->getRouter();
$dispatcher = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance()->getDispatcher();
$request = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance()->getRequest();
$frontRoute = new Zend_Controller_Router_Route_Module(array(), $dispatcher, $request);
$backRoute = new Zend_Controller_Router_Route_Module(array('module' => 'admin'), $dispatcher, $request);
$route = new Zend_Controller_Router_Route('admin');
$router->addRoute('backend', $route->chain($backRoute));
$route = new Zend_Controller_Router_Route('default');
$router->addRoute('frontend', $route->chain($frontRoute));
Explenation:
Zend_Controller_Router_Route_Module is for definining modules routes for the application. By chaining it to normal route like new Zend_Controller_Router_Route('admin') you made links like /admin/[your_module_route] where [your_module_route] have defined defaults array('module' => 'admin') and can take other parameters too.
new Zend_Controller_Router_Route_Module(array(), $dispatcher, $request); is defined as an default route on the standard router.

How do add a route in Zend with a module name

I want to add a route in my Zend Framework application.
I want a route like this:
example.com/modulename/titleofthearticle-12
who redirect to:
example.com/modulename/article/index/id/12
I made this code, but I don't know how to add the module name in the route:
$router = $front_controller->getRouter();
$route = new Zend_Controller_Router_Route_Regex(
'modulename/[a-z\-]*-([0-9]*)',
array('controller' => 'article', 'action' => 'index'),
array(1 => 'id')
);
$router->addRoute('article', $route);
How to add this module name in the route ?
Thanks !
Try:
$router = $front_controller->getRouter();
$route = new Zend_Controller_Router_Route_Regex(
'modulename/[a-z\-]*-([0-9]*)',
array(
'module' => 'modulename',
'controller' => 'article',
'action' => 'index'),
array(
1 => 'id'
)
);
$router->addRoute('article', $route);

problem with Zend URL helper $this->url

I have situation with Zend route & $this->url method
IN my bootstrap.php I have few routes as
$route = new Zend_Controller_Router_Route(
'dashboard',
array(
'action' => 'index',
'controller' => 'index',
'module' => 'dashboard',
'isAdmin' => true
)
);
$router->addRoute('dashboard', $route);
$route = new Zend_Controller_Router_Route(
'logout',
array(
'action' => 'logout',
'controller' => 'index',
'module' => 'main',
'isAdmin' => true
)
);
$router->addRoute('logout', $route);
$route = new Zend_Controller_Router_Route(
'manage-users',
array(
'action' => 'list',
'controller' => 'index',
'module' => 'main',
'isAdmin' => true
)
);
$router->addRoute('manage-users', $route);
$route = new Zend_Controller_Router_Route(
'edit-user/:id',
array(
'action' => 'edit',
'controller' => 'index',
'module' => 'main',
),
array('id' => '[0-9]+')
);
$router->addRoute('edit-user', $route);
$route = new Zend_Controller_Router_Route(
'/manage-subcat/:ident',
array(
'action' => 'index',
'controller' => 'subcategory',
'module' => 'category',
'ident' => '',
array(
'ident' => '[a-zA-Z-_0-9]+',
)
)
);
$router->addRoute('manage-subcat', $route);
take a case of last route
in my view when I write
<?php echo $cat->CategoryName ?>
I get url as http://127.0.0.10/manage-subcat
& when I disable the last route in bootstrap & then I write in my view file
<?php echo $cat->CategoryName ?>
I get Url as same http://127.0.0.10/category/subcategory
Ideally I should get http://127.0.0.10/category/subcategory/ident/some-category for this one
& for previous one it should be http://127.0.0.10/manage-subcat/ident/some-category
This code sample is not working with custom routes as well as traditional routes, and I am trying to determine why this sample is not working correctly.
Besides the route declaration formatting error noted by zerocrates, could it be simply a typo in your code?
I notice you use $cat->CategoryName (singular $cat) in one place and $cats->catident (plural $cats) in another.
If passed a null parameter value, the router will omit that parameter from the generated URL.
