.htaccess rewrite rules issue - apache

I am trying to rewrite some urls using mod_rewrite.
I want to rewrite
localhost/exotica/pet/somePet/
to
`localhost/exotica/index.php/types/get/somePet/`
I have managed to remove index.php by using
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|resources|uploads|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /exotica/index.php/$1 [L]
so now localhost/exotica/types/get/somePet works
i have tried adding as first rule
RewriteRule ^pet/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/?$ type/get/$1 [N]
but it simply doesnt work so please help me i have no idea how to enable it
I managed to solve it by adding a route $route['pet/(:any)'] = "type/get/$1";, but I would prefer to do it using .htacess file


Try your rules like this in reverse order:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /exotica/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^pet/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/?$ types/get/$1 [L]
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|resources|uploads|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]

url rewriting synthax with .htaccess

I am on apache 2 and I would know if my htacces is correct
my url are for example :
localhost/test/boutique/index.php
localhost/test/boutique/index.php/language,en
localhost/test/boutique/index.php/Products/Description/products_id,1
localhost/test/boutique/index.php/Products/Description/products_id,2/language,fr
What is the best approach for a good url like above
In suppose index.php must deseapear to hav someting like that
localhost/test/boutique/Products/Description/products_id,1
I try this but it does'nt work
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://localhost/test/boutique/index.php/$1 [PT,L]

Assuming /test/boutique/ is a real directory, you can use these rules inside /test/boutique/.htaccess:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /test/boutique/
# remove index.php if entered directly by clients
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /index\.php/(\S*)\s [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [L,R=301,NE]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(?!index\.php$).* index.php/$0 [L,NC]

Apache Redirect from a folder to a index.php file

I want to redirect from http://www.domain.com/customer1 to /app/index.php?c=customer1 and http://www.domain.com/customer2 to /app/index.php?c=customer2
I tried the below rule but not works well...
RewriteRule ^customer1(.*)$ /app/index.php?c=customer1

I am assuming you are talking about rewriting,
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([\w-]+)$ /app/index.php?c=$1 [QSA,L]
This will internally rewrite your urls if not rewriting then try it like this,
RewriteEngine on
RerwiteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([\w-]+)$ /app/index.php?c=$1 [R=301,QSA,L]

RewriteRule to redirect whole domain to get parameter

I want to redirect a whole url to a query parameter with a RewriteRule in .htaccess
for example: http://server.com/http://google.com should be redirected to
http://server.com/index.php?url=http://google.com
so far i'm just able to make this work: http://server.com/google.com but when a : or / is contained, it doesn't work..
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule ^([a-z0-9_.-]+)$ index.php?url=$1 [L,NC,QSA]
thanks for help!

RewriteRule patter strips multiple / into one, better use RewriteCond here:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/(.+)$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule . index.php?url=%1 [L,NC,QSA]

Why not just do the TLD and then add the http:// in the rule. This is how I would do it.
This is the way I would use it so it doesn't "look" invalid. http://server.com/google.com
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule ^([a-z0-9_.-]+)$ index.php?url=http://$1 [L,NC,QSA]

Pretty URLs .htaccess

I always get in a tangle with .htaccess so was hoping someone could help me write one.
I have found stuff online similar to what I want, but I'm not confident enough
to rewrite their rewrites :P
I want this:
/foo/ = index.php?a=foo
/foo/bar/ = index.php?a=foo&b=bar
etc. up to /foo/bar/baz/cat/dog/ (&e=dog)
I also want the index.php to be invisible so that /index.php rewrites to /.
Another thing, I would like there to always be a trailing slash and therefore the ability
to do...
/foo/bar/baz/?another=whatever
I have directories such as /images/ that I don't want this to apply to,
so would I have to make a white list for this or are there certain redirects I can use?
Cheers!

You don't need to whitelist directories. That's what RewriteConds are for.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
It checks to make sure it's not a real file or real directory then performs the RewriteRule.
Try these rules below in your .htaccess file to get what you want.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} /+[^\.]+$
RewriteRule ^(.+[^/])$ %{REQUEST_URI}/ [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/([^/]+) index.php?a=$1&b=$2&c=$3&d=$4&e=$5&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/([^/]+) index.php?a=$1&b=$2&c=$3&d=$4&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)/([^/]+) index.php?a=$1&b=$2&c=$3&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+) index.php?a=$1&b=$2&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^/]+) index.php?a=$1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]

Rewrite rule to handle url exception

I have an app that serves many sites and I am using Apache mod-rewrite to map the
url's like this
http://site1.net/controller
http://site2.net/controller2/another_view
http://site3.net/
http://special_case.net/
maps to:
index.php?url=http://site1.net/controller
index.php?url=http://site2.net/controller2/another_view
index.php?url=http://site3.net/
index.php?url=http://special_case.net/hub
My rewrite rules are:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]
Which handles all the cases except the special last case, where I need to force
the use of a controller called "hub" when handling a specific domain. I collaborate with others on this project which means I can't do anything about the routing once the index file is called.
Can someone fix my rules so that all the above cases resolve?

You current rules don't seem to add the hostname to the url get-parameter. So I added that to to the following:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(special_case\.net)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=http://%1/hub/$1 [QSA,L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(.*)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=http://%1/$1 [QSA,L]

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^http://special_case.net index.php?url=http://special_case.net/hub [QSA,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]
