How to pass array as parameter to controller action using Symfony 2? Could you please write an example how to define route, which contains unknown length array as a parameter. For instance url: http://localhost:8000/blog/post/?tags=[tag1,tag2,tag3] where number of tags varies from 0 to 100. Also example controller for this route, where action returns values of tags array.
Using the following coding (see routing.yml and controller.php below) i am getting the error:
Catchable Fatal Error: Argument 3 passed to Symfony\Component\Routing\Route::__construct() must be of the type array, string given, called in C:\Bitnami\wampstack-5.5.30-0\sym_prog\dctr\vendor\symfony\symfony\src\Symfony\Component\Routing\Loader\YamlFileLoader.php on line 147 and defined in C:\Bitnami\wampstack-5.5.30-0\sym_prog\dctr\app/config\routing.yml (which is being imported from "C:\Bitnami\wampstack-5.5.30-0\sym_prog\dctr\app/config/routing_dev.yml").
url:
http://localhost:8000/blog/post/tag1
http://localhost:8000/blog/post/tag1/tag2/tag3/tag4
http://localhost:8000/blog/post/?tags=[tag1,tag2]
Below are different combinations of routing and controller files i have tried so far:
//version r1, routing.yml
blog_post_tags:
path: blog/post/{tags}
defaults: { _controller: DefaultController:list_postsByTagActionQ }
requirements:
tags : "[a-zA-Z0-9,]+"
//version r2, routing.yml
blog_post_tags:
resource: "@BlogBundle/Controller/"
type: annotation
prefix: /blog/
defaults: { _controller: DefaultController:list_postsByTagActionQ }
//version r1,2-c1 , controller.php
//http://localhost:8000/blog/post/?tags=[tag1,tag2] .
/**
* @Route("/posts/{tags}")
* @Template()
*/
public function list_postsByTagAction($tags){
var_dump($tags);
return array('posts'=>['post1','post2']);
}
//version r1,2-c2 , controller.php
//url http://localhost:8000/blog/post/?tags=[tag1,tag2]
/**
* @Route("/posts/{tags}")
* @Method("GET")
* @Template()
*/
public function list_postsByTagActionQ1(Request $request){
$tags=$request->query->get('tags'); // get a $_GET parameter
var_dump($tags);
return array('posts'=>['post1','post2']);
}
//version r1,2-c3 , controller.php
//url http://localhost:8000/blog/post/?tags=[tag1,tag2]
/**
* @Route("/posts/{tags}")
* @Method("GET")
* @Template()
*/
public function list_postsByTagActionQ3(Request $request, $tags){
var_dump($tags);
return array('posts'=>['post1','post2']);
}
//version r3, routing.yml
blog_post_tags:
path: blog/post/{tags}
defaults: { _controller: DefaultController:list_postsByTagActionQ }
//version r3-c4 , controller.php
//url http://localhost:8000/blog/post/?tags=[tag1,tag2]
public function list_postsByTagActionQ(Request $request){
$tags=$request->query->get('tags'); // get a $_GET parameter
var_dump($tags);
}
