sheershoff/yii2-module-urlrules

Extension to support module url rules for Yii2.

Yii2 Module Url Rules

This extension allows declaring url rules for a module inside a module, making it easy to manage module url rules, e.g. for API modules., _(*1)

This module is distributed under the MIT License (MIT)., _(*2)

Requirements

Yii >=2.0.0, _(*3)

Installation

The preferred way to install this extension is through composer., _(*4)

Either run, _(*5)

php composer.phar require --prefer-dist sheershoff/yii2-module-urlrules

or add, _(*6)

"sheershoff/yii2-module-urlrules": "~1.0.0"

to the require section of your composer.json., _(*7)

Configuration

To use this extension, you have to configure the components section in your application configuration and add getUrlRules or urlRules to your modules., _(*8)

In your main.php for the desired app add the moduleUrlRules component:, _(*9)

'components' => [
        // ...
        'moduleUrlRules' => [
            'class' => '\sheershoff\ModuleUrlRules\ModuleUrlRules',
            // allowed modules lists the modules that affect the url rules
            'allowedModules' => ['v1'],
        ],
        // ...

Check that modules are declared and see the urlManager settings for your API app or at least enable the enablePrettyUrl option. E.g.:, _(*10)

return [
    'modules' => [
        'v1' => [
            'basePath' => '@api/modules/v1',
            'class' => 'api\modules\v1\Module'
        ]
    ],
    'components' => [
        // ...
        // this config is suitable for an API app
        'urlManager' => [
            'enablePrettyUrl' => true,
            'enableStrictParsing' => true,
            'showScriptName' => false,
            'rules' => [],
        ],
    ],
];

In your Module.php for the module add the getUrlRules like the following:, _(*11)

<?php
namespace api\modules\v1;
class Module extends \yii\base\Module
{
    public $controllerNamespace = 'api\modules\v1\controllers';

    public function getUrlRules()
    {
        return [
            [
                'class' => 'yii\rest\UrlRule',
                'controller' => [self::getUniqueId().'/city'],
            ],
        ];
    }
}

Enjoy :-), _(*12)

TODO

1. Make tests with different php and yii versions.
2. See if bootstrapping process can be optimized in a way that it doesn't bind in apps that do not have moduleUrlRules component.
3. Check if the aliases map works to move the module to another slug or implement one in the extension.
