Parable Routing

Parable Routing is a fast, intuitive url routing library.

Install

Php 8.0+ and composer are required.

$ composer require parable-php/routing

Usage

$router = new Router();
$route1 = new Route(
    ['GET'],
    'simple-route',
    'route/simple',
    [Controller::class, 'actionName']
);
$route2 = new Route(
    ['GET', 'POST'],
    'param-route',
    'route/{param}/hello',
    function (string $param) {
        echo 'Hello, ' . $username . '!';
    }
);
$router->addRoutes($route1, $route2);
$match = $router->match('GET', 'route/devvoh/hello');
echo $match->getName();

This would echo param-route.

Routing does not provide a direct way of executing a route, but it’s easy enough:

$callable = $match->getCallable();
$callable(...$match->getParameterValues()->getAll());

For more free-form metadata you want to attach to a Route, you can use metadata:

$route = new Route(
    ['GET'],
    'simple-route',
    'route/simple',
    [Controller::class, 'actionName'],
    [
        'metadata' => 'enabled'
    ]
);
$route->getMetadataValue('metadata'); // returns 'enabled'

You can use this to add template paths to a route, whether it should be visible to admins only, etc.
