PHP Router - Fast router for PHP

A lightweight and simple object oriented PHP Router with support of Controllers.

This library provides a fast implementation of a regular expression based router.

• Defining routes
• Regex Shortcuts
• Named Routes for Reverse Routing
• Prefix Groups

Easy to install with composer

Install via composer

composer require patrikmokry/router  

Usage

Example

// index.php

use PatrikMokry\Router;  

require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';  

Router::get('example', function() {  
    return 'This route responds to requests with the GET method at the path /example';  
});  
Router::get('example/{id}', function($id) {  
    return 'This route responds to requests with the GET method at the path /example/<anything>';  
});  
Router::get('example/{id}?', function() {  
    return 'This route responds to requests with the GET method at the path /example/[optional]';  
});  
Router::post('example', function() {  
    return 'This route responds to requests with the POST method at the path /example';  
});  
  
Router::execute(__DIR__);  

// .htaccess

RewriteEngine on  
  
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f  
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d  
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l  
  
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php [QSA,L]

Defining Routes

use PatrikMokry\Router;  
  
Router::get($route, $action);  
Router::post($route, $action);  
Router::put($route, $action);  
Router::delete($route, $action);  
Router::any($route, $action);  

These helper methods are wrappers around route($route, $action, $method = ["POST", "GET"])
Neither $_PUT nor $_DELETE does not exist so in your request you must define field with name _method

Regex Shortcuts

:i => (\d+)   # numbers only  
:s => (\w+)   # any word, character  
  
use in routes:  
  
'/user/{name::i}'  
'/user/{name::s}'  

Custom shortcuts

Router::addShortcut(name, regex)  
  
// create shortcut with default value
Router::addShortcut('locale', '(sk|en)->sk)')  

Named Routes for Reverse Routing

Router::get('example/{id}', function() {
	return 'example';
})->name('example');

echo Router::link('example', ['id' => 48]) // example/48

Prefix Groups

// If you need some prefix e.g. admin, api, locale, ...

Router::prefix('admin/', function() {
	Router::get('example/{id}', function() {
		return 'example';
	});
});
