Trying to work on a RESTfull API with yii (being the first project using yii)
Having problem with getting URLManager to properly route calls:
'urlManager' => array(
'urlFormat' => 'path',
'showScriptName' => false,
'caseSensitive' => false,
'rules' => array(
'api/<controller>' => array('api/<controller>/list', 'verb' => 'GET'),
'api/<controller>' => array('api/<controller>/create', 'verb' => 'POST'),
),
),
Tried working with this (this is not the full snippet, I had dispatchers for PUT/DELETE etc..
But it did not work... Being desperate, I tried even something as simple as that:
'urlManager' => array(
'urlFormat' => 'path',
'showScriptName' => false,
'caseSensitive' => false,
'rules' => array(
'tezt' => array('landing/beta', 'verb' => 'GET'),
'tezt' => array('landing', 'verb' => 'POST'),
),
),
whenever I remove one of the rules, it works, but when I put both the rules in, none of them works, I get exception
exception.CHttpException.404
exception 'CHttpException' with message 'Unable to resolve the request
"tezt".' in /yii-1.1.10/web/CWebApplication.php:280
Been banging my head agains this for 2 days now. Probably seen all the samples and tutorials on URLManager on the web (although could not find a straightforward and complete explanation of the rules). But, no joy.
Am I doing something wrong? Is it my box setup maybe?
I tried this and it worked:
'rules'=>array(
//API URLs
array('api/<controller>/index', 'pattern'=>'api/<controller:\w+>', 'verb'=>'GET'),
array('api/<controller>/create', 'pattern'=>'api/<controller:\w+>', 'verb'=>'POST'),
array('api/<controller>/view', 'pattern'=>'api/<controller:\w+>/<id:\d+>', 'verb'=>'GET'),
array('api/<controller>/update', 'pattern'=>'api/<controller:\w+>/<id:\d+>', 'verb'=>'PUT, POST'),
array('api/<controller>/delete', 'pattern'=>'api/<controller:\w+>/<id:\d+>', 'verb'=>'DELETE'),
//Other URLs
'<controller:\w+>/<id:\d+>'=>'<controller>/view',
'<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>/<id:\d+>'=>'<controller>/<action>',
'<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>'=>'<controller>/<action>',
),
"api" is a module configured in modules section as
'api'=>array('defaultController' => 'default',),
In REST client, you have to specify controller name, even for default controller.
I am using Yii 1.1.10 but I think Yii supports RESTful URLs since 1.1.7.
try this
'api/<controller:\w+>' => array('api/<controller>/list', 'verb' => 'GET'),
is api a module?
For anyone else who stumbles on this, it didn't work because the rules were declared using the same keys, so the latter rule overrode the former.
In the future, declare the pattern in the rule configuration array:
array(
'route',
'pattern' =>'somePattern',
'verb' =>'...',
),
array(
'another/route',
'pattern' =>'anotherPattern',
'verb' =>'...',
),

I use the Yii2 framework and want to remove site/index from my URLs.
Right now I have the following URL
example.com/site/index
but would like to change it to simple
example.com
I tried the following approach Yii2 How to remove site/index and page parameter from url but it doesn't work.
Could you please suggest how it can be done?
Looking at the question also asked at Yii2: Remove controller from URL
I ran into problems and I had to use the Yii2 resources as https://yii2-cookbook.readthedocs.io/enable-pretty-urls/
and this is what I got
'urlManager' => [
'enablePrettyUrl' => true,
'showScriptName' => false,
'rules' => [
'<action>'=>'site/<action>',
'<controller:[\w\-]+>/<id:\d+>' => '<controller>/view',
'<controller:[\w\-]+>/<action:[\w\-]+>/<id:\d+>' => '<controller>/<action>',
'<controller:[\w\-]+>/<action:[\w\-]+' => '<controller>/<action>',
],
],
You need to add rule for empty path at the beginning of your rules:
'urlManager' => [
'rules' => [
'' => 'site/index',
// rest of rules
],
],
I understand many variables outside what I can provide could be the problem, but I'm still asking if someone had this problem and could help.
Here's my UrlManager config in the components
'urlManager' => [
'class' => 'yii\web\UrlManager',
'enablePrettyUrl' => false,
'showScriptName' => true,
'rules' => [
'' => 'site/index',
'member' => 'site/login',
],
],
This url works:
http://exampler.com/web/index.php?r=site/login
This url returns a 404
http://example.com/web/index.php?r=member
**NOTE: ** I don't have any messy Nginx or Apache rules on my server like this guy had. My rules seem to be completely ignored, whatever I write in them.
$rules is ignored if you set $enablePrettyUrl to false. From $rules documentation:
The rules for creating and parsing URLs when $enablePrettyUrl is true. This property is used only if $enablePrettyUrl is true.

On Yii 1.x
We found it quite difficult to implement a language selection option with Yii, so, we are using the following extension:
http://www.yiiframework.com/extension/langhandler/
Like so:
main.php URL Manager:
urlManager'=>array(
'class'=>'application.extensions.langhandler.ELangCUrlManager',
'urlFormat'=>'path',
'showScriptName'=>false,
'rules'=>array(
'<lang:(pt|en)>/<_c>/<_a>/' => '<_c>/<_a>',
),
'urlFormat'=>'path',
'rules'=>array(
'<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>/<id:\d+>' => '<controller>/<action>',
'<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>' => '<controller>/<action>',
'<controller:\w+>' => '<controller>/index',
),
When we click "en", instead of getting:
http://blabla.dev/experience/info/114?lang=en
We are getting:
http://blabla.dev/experience/info?lang=en
So the ID part of this url is being completely ignored.
Can anyone give us a hand here?
We have tried to change the rules to:
'<lang:(pt|en)>/<_c>/<_a>/<_i>/' => '<_c>/<_a>',
and a lot of other combinations, but that is just guessing.
I have following file structure
As default the url created for accessing the module content is for example
http://127.0.0.1/tmc/user/default/viewMessage
and for other controller it comes out to be
http://127.0.0.1/tmc/user/booking/index
The problem is I want to write a rule in my urlManager so that both controllers remain accessible AND i do not see default word in url as in first example.
However if i write following rules I am able to eliminate the default word but now other controllers in same module wont work. any help in this regard is appreciated
'<module:\w+>/<action:\w+>/<id:(.*?)>' => '<module>/default/<action>/<id>',
'<module:\w+>/<action:\w+>' => '<module>/default/<action>',
My current Url Manager is as follow
'urlManager' => array(
'urlFormat' => 'path',
'showScriptName' => false,
'rules' => array(
'/' => 'site/index',
'login' => 'site/login',
'user' => 'user/default/',
'<view:[a-zA-Z0-9-]+>/' => 'site/page',
),
),
Follow this Link for config settings
Refer this Link
//inside protected/modules/admin/AdminModule.php
class AdminModule extends CWebModule
{
//goes to TaskController instead of DefaultController
public $defaultController = 'Task';
...
Now your Yii application will routes to the “TaskController” if you request
index.php?r=admin
//same as requesting
index.php?r=admin/task
I am getting an HTTP 404 error when I try to rewrite my URL's in Yii with urlManager.
Here are two config formats I've tried in my main.php config file, one like 'pattern1'=>'route1' and the other in the new format array('route1', 'pattern'=>'pattern1'):
'urlManager' => array(
'urlFormat' => 'path',
'rules' => array(
'messageBulk'=>'message/apiBulk'
),
),
'urlManager' => array(
'urlFormat' => 'path',
'rules' => array(
array('message/apiBulk', 'pattern'=>'messageBulk')
),
),
What sort of urls are you looking to generate? Cos I'm a bit confused with the configurations you've got up there. At any rate, this is a template I use for my projects:
'urlManager'=>array(
'urlFormat'=>'path',
'rules'=>array(
// REST patterns
array('api/list', 'pattern'=>'api/v1/<model:\w+>', 'verb'=>'GET'),
array('api/view', 'pattern'=>'api/v1/<model:\w+>/check', 'verb'=>'GET'),
array('api/view', 'pattern'=>'api/v1/<model:\w+>/<id:\d+>', 'verb'=>'GET'),
array('api/create', 'pattern'=>'api/v1/<model:\w+>', 'verb'=>'POST'),
'<controller:\w+>/<id:\d+>/'=>'<controller>/view',
'<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>/<id:\d+>/*'=>'<controller>/<action>',
'<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>/*'=>'<controller>/<action>',
'<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>/'=>'<controller>/<action>',
'<module:\w+>/<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>/'=>'<module>/<controller>/<action>',
),
//'showScriptName'=>false,
),
I hope it helps you out.
Was writing the URL wrong, missing "index.php". Answer was in #ernie's comment.
What's the debug panel show? What URL are you trying to access with your rules? Does your yourwebsite.com/index.php/message/apiBulk work?
