使用Slim框架和MAMP管理路由

Question

It seems that there is a conflict between MAMP and Slim framework on my environment.
I am trying to learn Slim, and I have this weird situation where I can create a route for '/', but impossible to do it for '/contact'.

$app->get('/', \App\Controllers\PagesController::class . ':home');
$app->get('/contact', \App\Controllers\PagesController::class . ':getContact');

Slim seems to catch the / route, but when I type http://localhost:8888/contact/ in my browser Slim doesn't catch the request, I have a 404...

I tried to create a real "contact" folder with an index.html file inside, and of course then it works... it displays the index.html

You need to route all requests to the index.php file. Mamp is looking for a directory structure that does not exist until you create it, as you did.

Create a .htaccess file in the your app's root folder. and insert the following:

RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?path=$1 [NC,L,QSA]

if you are just learning php and slim then I recommend ditching MAMP and just using the integrated PHP server. From your project's folder, Kick off the server with the following CLI command: PHP -S localhost:3000
