[SOLVED] Yii2 urlmanager rules for pretty urls fails

Yii2 urlmanager rules for pretty urls fails

I have the following url manager path

        'urlManager' => [
        'enablePrettyUrl' => true,
        'showScriptName' => false,
        'rules' => [
            '<controller:(\w|-)+>/' => 'site/index',
            '<module:api\w+>/<controller:\w+>/<action:(\w|-)+>' => '<module>/<controller>/<action>',
         ],
    ]

What am looking for is all urls not rendered via api module paths to run via site/index but all other paths having api/* to be executed via module paths.

The above works for urls like /login, /auth but when i run urls like

/administrative/uom

It fails

SO basically i want all urls to be redirrected via site/index but all urls having api as the prefix like api/auth/login to be run via their respective controllers. I have added an api module which should handle this.

What else do i need to add to make this work?

Solution

When adding rules always start from more detailed to less detailed. And you added general rule for controller only so no URL with action is matched. Do this

'rules' => [
    'api/<controller:\w+>/<action:[\w\-]+>' => 'api/<controller>/<action>',
    '<controller:[\w\-]+>/<action:[\w\-]+>' => 'site/index',
    '<controller:[\w\-]+>/' => 'site/index',
],
