UrlRule extends BaseObject
in package
implements UrlRuleInterface

UrlRule represents a rule used by [[UrlManager]] for parsing and generating URLs.

To define your own URL parsing and creation logic you can extend from this class and add it to [[UrlManager::rules]] like this:

'rules' => [
    ['class' => 'MyUrlRule', 'pattern' => '...', 'route' => 'site/index', ...],
    // ...
]

public mixed PARSING_ONLY = 1

Properties

$createUrlStatus read-only

public int|null $createUrlStatus

Status of the URL creation after the last [[createUrl()]] call. null if rule does not provide info about create status.

$defaults

public array<string|int, mixed> $defaults = []

the default GET parameters (name => value) that this rule provides. When this rule is used to parse the incoming request, the values declared in this property will be injected into $_GET.

$encodeParams

public bool $encodeParams = true

a value indicating if parameters should be url encoded.

$host

public string|null $host

the pattern used to parse and create the host info part of a URL (e.g. https://example.com).

Tags
see
pattern

$mode

public int|null $mode

a value indicating if this rule should be used for both request parsing and URL creation, parsing only, or creation only. If not set or 0, it means the rule is both request parsing and URL creation. If it is [[PARSING_ONLY]], the rule is for request parsing only. If it is [[CREATION_ONLY]], the rule is for URL creation only.

$name

public string|null $name

the name of this rule. If not set, it will use [[pattern]] as the name.

$normalizer

public UrlNormalizer|array<string|int, mixed>|false|null $normalizer

the configuration for [[UrlNormalizer]] used by this rule. If null, [[UrlManager::normalizer]] will be used, if false, normalization will be skipped for this rule.

Tags
since
2.0.10

$pattern

On the rule initialization, the [[pattern]] matching parameters names will be replaced with [[placeholders]].

public string $pattern

the pattern used to parse and create the path info part of a URL.

Tags

placeholders

$route

public string $route

the route to the controller action

$suffix

public string|null $suffix

the URL suffix used for this rule. For example, ".html" can be used so that the URL looks like pointing to a static HTML page. If not set, the value of [[UrlManager::suffix]] will be used.

$verb

public string|array<string|int, mixed>|null $verb

the HTTP verb (e.g. GET, POST, DELETE) that this rule should match. Use array to represent multiple verbs that this rule may match. If this property is not set, the rule can match any verb. Note that this property is only used when parsing a request. It is ignored for URL creation.

protected int|null $createStatus

status of the URL creation after the last [[createUrl()]] call.

Tags
since
2.0.12

$placeholders

protected array<string|int, mixed> $placeholders = []

list of placeholders for matching parameters names. Used in [[parseRequest()]], [[createUrl()]]. On the rule initialization, the [[pattern]] parameters names will be replaced with placeholders. This array contains relations between the original parameters names and their placeholders. The array keys are the placeholders and the values are the original names.

Calls the named method which is not a class method.

public __call(string $name, array<string|int, mixed> $params) : mixed

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when an unknown method is being invoked.

Parameters

Tags
throws
UnknownMethodException

public __construct([array<string|int, mixed> $config = [] ]) : mixed

The default implementation does two things:

  • Initializes the object with the given configuration $config.
  • Call [[init()]].

If this method is overridden in a child class, it is recommended that

  • the last parameter of the constructor is a configuration array, like $config here.
  • call the parent implementation at the end of the constructor.
Parameters
$config : array<string|int, mixed> = []

name-value pairs that will be used to initialize the object properties

__get()

Returns the value of an object property.

public __get(string $name) : mixed

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing $value = $object->property;.

Parameters
$name : string

the property name

Tags
throws
UnknownPropertyException

if the property is not defined

throws
InvalidCallException

if the property is write-only

mixed

the property value

__isset()

Checks if a property is set, i.e. defined and not null.

public __isset(string $name) : bool

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing isset($object->property).

Note that if the property is not defined, false will be returned.
