Simple Routing#

Simple Routing describes a design pattern which uses direct interaction with \Parable\Framework\App to quickly define simple routes that use either a closure or a controller-action array (["ControllerName", "action"]). Since the routes are all defined in the same location, this is most useful for applications that don't require many routes.

If you expect your application to grow significantly, perhaps consider using Parable Framework instead.

How to use#

<?php
require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

$app = \Parable\DI\Container::create(\Parable\Framework\App::class);

$app->get('/hello/{name}', function ($name) use ($app) {
    return "Hello, {$name}!";
});

$app->run();

The idea behind quickroutes is the sometimes you don't need a whole MVC circus but you just want some simple routes that return some value. All methods that Parable supports have equivalent quick route methods on App: $app->get(...), $app->post(...), $app->put(...), $app->patch(...), $app->delete(...), $app->options(...) and can, through DI, access any component from Parable.

There are also two other methods:

• $app->any(...), which accepts any aforementioned request method.
• $app->multiple(...), which accepts only the methods passed to it.

Parameters#

The multiple() method accepts one additional parameter as its first parameter. The remaining parameters are the same as they are for all other methods.

The parameters for all but multiple() are as follows:
