I want to have a clean URL in CodeIgniter based application for User's Profile Information.
Please Take a look at URL formats below.
Actual URL : http://www.mydomain.com/index.php/users/profile/user1
I'm expecting users to have Personal URL's like
http://www.mydomain.com/user1
http://www.mydomain.com/user2
http://www.mydomain.com/user3
URL http://www.mydomain.com/user1 should process http://www.mydomain.com/index.php/users/profile/user1 in background execution.
I will be removing index.php from URL using Route library.
Thanks in advance for any sort of help.
Have a look at https://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/general/routing.html.
$route['user(:num)'] = "users/profile/user/$1";
If you mean you want /anyusername to route to the users controller, you would have to put:
$route['(:any)'] = "users/profile/$1";
At the bottom of routes.php and every non user-URL above it. Otherwise every URL would be routed there, obviously. You will need to implement some mechanism in the users-controller to throw 404-errors, since you are routing all requests not catched in the routing rules above.
IN config/routes.php
add this line
$route['user(:num)'] = "users/profile/$1";

I want to host a Netlify website where you can search for specific users. Currently its like this https://example.com/users?q=exampleuser . (its https://example.com/users.html but pretty url'ed)
But what I want is to make the URL query pretty. So the endresult should be https://example.com/users/exampleuser but it should still be a url query so the JavaScript can make calls based on the query.
e.g.:
https://example.com/users?q=test123 to
https://example.com/users/test123
https://example.com/users?q=example456 to
https://example.com/users/example456
The rewrite rule will work with:
/users q=:q /users/:q 200
When you navigate to https://example.com/users?q=exampleuser, you must have an existing endpoint at https://example.com/users/exampleuser/ or it will give a 404 status code, but will still rewrite the original path.
Note: If you have an existing endpoint at /users/ this method will not fallback if the rewrite path has an invalid endpoint. Meaning you can't fallback to /users/ endpoint if the query path is an invalid endpoint.
what is the proper way to redirect to a different page in Hybris?I have been the following approach quite a lot:
link
But some people emphasized that it is better to redirect using a separate method and using redirect:
What is the correct way?
Let me first tell you basic difference between request Redirect Vs Forward.
Redirect: Server sends a header (in response) back to the browser/client, which contain redirect URL, then browser initiates a new request to redirect URL.
When can we use Redirect?
Usually, when data is posted to the server, we should redirect to get method(URL) to prevent data resubmission on browser refreshed(F5).
return "redirect:/redirectToGeturl";
Forward: Within the server, control can be forwarded to target resource(URL). Which is done by container internally so browser/client is not aware of it.
When can we use forward?
Sometimes, we want to show different page/resource in response without changing original URL, then we forward request to other controller internally.
return "forward:/404";
What is the proper way to redirect to a different page in Hybris?
public static final String REDIRECT_PREFIX = "redirect:";
public static final String FORWARD_PREFIX = "forward:";
This class level constants are defined in AbstractController. You can use that by extending your controller to AbstractPageController or AbstractController.
return REDIRECT_PREFIX + "/redirecturl";
return FORWARD_PREFIX + "/404";
< a href="< c:url value="/path" />">link< /a >
This is the correct way to declare a link on client/browser side, which sends GET request to /path once the user clicks it.

Im trying to combine several tutorials about Codeigniter and bootstrap and understand per codes so i can integrate it in my project. What i am trying to do right now is create a login form using the two framework.
And i setup my View according to the turotial included in Codeigniter 'user_guide/tutorial/static_pages.html' which my landing page is named as 'home.php' is inside the folder 'pages' and header.php, and footer.php is inside the 'templates' folder. I created also a controller: Page.php.
I also use .htaccess to hide 'index.php'. Now i follow this tutorial how to create a login page:
http://learnjquerybootstrap.blogspot.com/2015/01/login-session-using-codeigniter-and-bootstrap.html?m=1
-the only difference is this since i use htaccess:
<?php echo form_open(clogin/index); ?>
But when I try to submit the page i receive a: 404 page not found.
My navbar links are working fine. I understand that the codeigniter works like this:
http://localhost/myfolder/index.php/class/function/
so when i submit my form the url that show up is:
http://localhost/myfolder/clogin/index
and gives me: 404 page not found.
Question:
What is wrong with it?
is there something wrong with the tutorial that i am using? i check other tutorials and the controller structure is just the same, like on this link:
http://www.kodingmadesimple.com/2014/08/how-to-create-login-form-codeigniter-mysql-twitter-bootstrap.html
do i need to include clogin.php in route.php?
or is it about the htaccess? my
uri_protocol
is configured as
'REQUEST_URI'
in config.php. i tried other options but still the same.
Don't need include to route.
I recommented ready auth library.
If you use DevTools in your browser maybe "Network" tab of devtools can help you to why you get 404 error.
i already firgured it out.The mistake was in the route.php, since i tried to combine two examples.. i realized that the wildcard route that i included from the Codeigniter user guide will not work with the Clogin.php.
Since it was set as
$route['(:any)']='pages/view/$1';
So the url works as
http://localhost/myfolder/pages/view/clogin
instead of
http://localhost/myfolder/clogin.
I removed it and now it is working.
I hate the codeigniter custom urls where it's: domain.com/controller/action/username
How can I have it like a normal website like: domain.com/username
Please give me a suggestion.
You try this in routes.php
$route['(:any)'] = "controller/action/$1";
Here is the routing documentation : routing
Please refer http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-guide/general/routing.html. You can do this by URL routing
I am trying to append few extra parameters to the url that user typed (before the page gets loaded). Is it possible to do?
For example, if user types www.google.com, I would like to append ?q=query to url (final: www.google.com?q=query.
Thanks
The webRequest API might be what you need. This code goes in your background page:
chrome.webRequest.onBeforeRequest.addListener(
function(details) {
if( details.url == "http://www.google.com/" )
return {redirectUrl: "http://www.google.com/?q=defaultquery" };
},
{urls: ["http://www.google.com/*"]},
["blocking"]);
This is an extremely specific rule that redirects visits to http://www.google.com/ with http://www.google.com/?q=defaultquery, but I think you can see how to expand it to include more functionality.
Note that this will reroute all attempts to reach http://www.google.com/, including Ajax requests and iframes.
Per the documentation, you will need to add the webRequest and webRequestBlocking permissions, along with host permissions for every host you plan to intercept:
"permissions": [
"webRequest",
"webRequestBlocking",
"*://*.google.com/",
...
],
This is an old question still I am answering it for future readers.
Modification of query parameters is a little tricky because you can endup in an infinite loop and Chrome/Firefox may detect it and process whatever is the current state of the request URL.
I have faced this situation in my chrome extension Requestly where Users used Replace Rule and replaced www.google.com with www.google.com?q=query or did something similar.
The problem with this approach is browsers intercept the request URL after adding query parameter so the parameter will be added multiple times and corrupt the URL. So you have to ensure either of the following:-
Do not intercept a request once it has been redirected.
Check if the parameter already exists, then do not redirect it.
As correctly pointed out by #apsillers in his answer, you have to use webRequest API to perform any modifications to the URL. Please have a look at his answer
and write your code accordingly.
Just in case, you are looking for an already available solution, consider trying Requestly's Query Parameter Rule. Here is a screenshot of how it looks like:-
For Firefox, you can download Requestly from its home page.
