CakePHP 3 - How do I generate a link in a view which will combine the current URL param?

Hello CakePHP friends.

May I have your suggestion that how can I generate a link in a view, which is having "?" => [] but will not clear the original param in the URL that the user is browsing?

For example,

<?= $this->Html->link("Blue", ["?" => ["color" => "blue"]]) ?>

generates a link for passing param in URL like ?color=blue

Let say, the user clicked this link, and I want to provide him another link to add 1 or more conditions.

<?= $this->Html->link("Circle", ["?" => ["shape" => "circle"]]) ?>

generates a link like ?shape=circle.

But I hope it will be: ?color=blue&shape=circle.

Please help. Thank you. You can just write in answer if you have one.

Solution

  • you can find your query params in 

    $this->request->query

    so you can use array_merge

    $query = array_merge($this->request->query, ["shape" => "circle"]);
echo $this->Html->link("Circle", $query)
