This is a PHP library that enables route handling in web applications.

Then, you can use the library's features in your code.

Defining routes

To define routes, you can use the Router class to register your routes.

A very simple example would be:

This registers a route that responds to GET requests at the root URL (/) and serves the index.php file, which is expected to handle the request. The index.php file must be located in the directory specified by setPagesDirectory.

You can also define routes with parameters:

This registers a route that responds to GET requests at /user/{i:userId}, where {i:userId} is a placeholder for an integer parameter named userId. The request will be handled by the users/details.php file, so the details.php file is now located in the subdirectory users/ within the directory specified by setPagesDirectory.

A route can have multiple placeholders, all of them are denoted by curly braces with the data type and name of the placeholder inside. The variable is then available in the $_GET superglobal array, so you can access it like this:

The available data types for placeholders are:

Finally, it is also possible to define routes that respond to multiple HTTP methods:

In this case, the route will respond to both GET and POST requests at the /user URL, and the handling user.php script could serve an HTML form to create or update a user upon a GET request, and process the form submission upon a POST request. However, this use-case is not recommended, as it is better to separate the handling of different HTTP methods into different routes for clarity and maintainability.

Defining error routes

After defining your routes, you have to define error routes. When stumbling upon a routing error, the users have to be redirected accordingly. You can do this as follows:

This will redirect the users to the existing routes named 400 and 404 to handle the respective errors.

Starting the router

When you have followed the above steps, you can simply start the router in your application:

Generate routes

You can generate URLs for your defined routes using the generate method of the Router class:

This searches for the route named user_details and replaces the {i:userId} placeholder with the value 42, resulting in a URL like /user/42. You can pass an additional parameter withHostUrl as boolean to include the host URL in the generated output, resulting in a full URL like https://yourdomain.com/user/42.

Get paths for static files

You can also get the paths for static files using the getStaticFilePath method:
