In my IndexController, I currently have indexAction (homepage), loginAction and logoutAction. I'm trying to remove "/index/" from the URL to get domain.com/login instead of domain.com/index/login.
What is the cleanest way to achieve this? Is there a RegEx we can use? I don't ever want /index/ in the URL.
My current solution, which I believe can be improved upon, is below. Also, what does the first parameter in addRoute() do?
class Bootstrap extends Zend_Application_Bootstrap_Bootstrap
{
protected function _initViewHelpers()
{
$front = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance();
$router = $front->getRouter();
$router->addRoute('login',
new Zend_Controller_Router_Route('login/*', array(
'controller' => 'index',
'action' => 'login'
))
);
$router->addRoute('logout',
new Zend_Controller_Router_Route('logout/*', array(
'controller' => 'index',
'action' => 'logout'
))
);
}
}
There is nothing to impove, you have to create route for every action. This will allow you to change route defaults (module/controller/action) without modifying your code.
First parameter is the route name, which you have to use with url() helper in your views:
<a href="<?php echo $this->url(array(), 'login', true); ?>">Login</a>
Update. You can use such route, if you want only one route without "index" in url:
$router->addRoute('default',
new Zend_Controller_Router_Route(':action/*', array(
'controller' => 'index',
))
);
