I think a good start could be to write a Controller Plugin, something like:
<?php
class Controllers_Plugin_Maproutes extends Zend_Controller_Plugin_Abstract
{
public function preDispatch(Zend_Controller_Request_Abstract $request)
{
Zend_Registry::set('zfRequestController', $request->getControllerName());
Zend_Registry::set('zfRequestAction', $request->getActionName());
$oYourMappingTable = new MappingTable();
if($oYourMappingTable->isMappable($request->getControllerName(), $request->getActionName())) {
$request->setControllerName($oYourMappingTable->getMappedControllerName());
$request->setActionName($oYourMappingTable->setMappedActionName());
} else {
// route to error (or pass the request to a next route...)
$request->setControllerName('error');
$request->setActionName('error');
}
}
}
