Hi Piotr, Thanks for this informational post on CakePHP with Symfony’s2 router I also would like to suggest a post that will help the readers to find an overview of which php framework is right for their application.

Hi,

If I had any choice I will choose Symfony because this is the main framework which I prefer to use. I know that’s the third version is released and as I think the problem and solution is the same, or isn’t? http://book.cakephp.org/3.0/en/development/routing.html

Why are you talking about cake2 when you should be looking at cake3?

Nice work on the plugin, seemed interesting (I added a question about caching to your issue tracker).

One question, unrelated to your plugin: Where is CakePHP lacking in tests? You mentioned in your post that we’re lacking in tests, yet the core tests are pretty comprehensive [1]. What gives you the idea that this is the case?

David,
your example is good. I cannot fight with that. My point was not to pass all parameters (as in your example) to every single link – ‘echo $this->Html->link(‘View post’, [‘controller’ => ‘blogs’, ‘action’ => ‘post’, ‘slug’ => $blog[‘Post’][‘id’]]);’ should be called without controller, action and template. I want to pass there really, really mandatory “slug”.

So if the CakePHP has an option to create an url and call it by echo `$this->Html->link(‘View post’, ‘blog_post’, [‘slug’=>$blog[‘Post’][‘slug’]]);` then I’m ok.

Great idea to bridge the two components. I’m confused by your example route though. What is it actually supposed to do? Why is slug defined if it’s a routing token?

If I assumed that it was to view a blog post I would create a route like:
`Router::connect(‘/blog/:slug’, [‘controller’ => ‘blogs’, ‘action’ => ‘post’], [‘slug’ => ‘[a-z0-9-]+’, ‘pass’ => [‘slug’]);`

Then in your `BlogsController::post($slug)` method you would get the slug as a passed parameter. To create a link to view this post I would create a link as `echo $this->Html->link(‘View post’, [‘controller’ => ‘blogs’, ‘action’ => ‘post’, ‘slug’ => $blog[‘Post’][‘id’]]);`
