Yii check if homepage

Is there a buildin method or property in Yii to check if page is homepage?

I know i can use something like this:

$controller = Yii::app()->getController();
$isHome = $controller->getAction()->getId() === 'index' ? true : false;

Or put it in a method in main controller, but i am looking for something cleaner.

Thanks.

Solution

  • If You want to check the current page, ie action is the default of the current controller..

    $controller = Yii::app()->getController();
$isHome = $controller->action->id === $controller->defaultAction->id ? true : false;

    dafeultaction may not always be 'index', it can be changed, so you need to compare it with defaultAction instead..

    And by homepage if you mean the defult page of site, then you need to compare your controller also with defaultController..

    $controller = Yii::app()->getController();
$default_controller = Yii::app()->defaultController;
$isHome = (($controller->id === $default_controller->id) && ($controller->action->id === $controller->defaultAction->id)) ? true : false;

    In Yii2:

    $controller = Yii::$app->controller;
$default_controller = Yii::$app->defaultRoute;
$isHome = (($controller->id === $default_controller) && ($controller->action->id === $controller->defaultAction)) ? true : false;
