Re: [fw-mvc] RE: Language in URL: always a particular case !

You should be able to satisfy all of those conditions with a single route. You can make trailing parameters optional by providing a default value.

The only problem is I don't know how to make the "module" parameter optional while still accepting controller/action parameters. For example, you probably want this to go to your admin module:

/en-us/admin/foo/bar

while this goes to your default module

/en-us/foo/bar

Unless I'm mistaken, the basic route can't handle this, so you may need to always provide the module in the URL:

/en-us/default/foo/bar

Also, the reason why your routes are not working is because they work in LIFO order (so from the bottom up). Once a route matches the request (that is, the url is in the expected format), then that route is used. The problem is you have two routes with the same parameter signature ":module/:controller" and ":controller/:action". The router does not know the difference between your named parameters, so as soon as the format looks right it will use that route.

Hello,

Thanks for your help, it's almost ok but there is still a problem.
I don't know exactly the order to define routes.

For example, i've created a very simple app with two modules, front and
admin. Front module has a IndexController with an index action and Admin
module has a ContactController with an index action.

According to the ZF documentation i should have  :
[code]
resources.router.routes.m.route = "/:locale/:module"
resources.router.routes.m.defaults.module = front
resources.router.routes.m.defaults.controller = index
resources.router.routes.m.defaults.action = index
resources.router.routes.m.reqs.locale = "^([a-z]{2}-[a-z]{2})$"
resources.router.routes.m.defaults.locale =

resources.router.routes.mc.route = "/:locale/:module/:controller"
resources.router.routes.mc.defaults.module = front
resources.router.routes.mc.defaults.controller = index
resources.router.routes.mc.defaults.action = index
resources.router.routes.mc.reqs.locale = "^([a-z]{2}-[a-z]{2})$"
resources.router.routes.mc.defaults.locale =

resources.router.routes.ca.route = "/:locale/:controller/:action"
resources.router.routes.ca.defaults.module = front
resources.router.routes.ca.defaults.controller = index
resources.router.routes.ca.defaults.action = index
resources.router.routes.ca.reqs.locale = "^([a-z]{2}-[a-z]{2})$"
resources.router.routes.ca.defaults.locale =

resources.router.routes.default.route =

"/:locale/:module/:controller/:action"
resources.router.routes.default.defaults.module = front

resources.router.routes.default.defaults.controller = index
resources.router.routes.default.defaults.action = index

resources.router.routes.default.reqs.locale = "^([a-z]{2}-[a-z]{2})$"
resources.router.routes.default.defaults.locale =
[/code]

But with the url : http://local.cosplay-it-teasing.com/en-us/dsqdqs
I don't get a Invalid controller exception and
http://local.cosplay-it-teasing.com/en-us/index or
http://local.cosplay-it-teasing.com/en-us/index/index don't work either.

If i change order of routes i can obtain it, but :
http://local.cosplay-it-teasing.com/en-us/admin/contact
Throws an Invalid Controller exception when the module/controller exist.

Any idea ?

Except that i think that's a better way to redirect earlier from bootstrap
or application plugin resource rather than from a controller plugin.


Thanks.

Cdt,
Benjamin.
