使用url重写访问$ _GET []数组

Question

I'm building a website for a hair saloon. I got all the time that i need so I i started to build my MVC framework just to better understand MVC. The core of MVC is url rewriting.

RewriteRule ^(.*)/?$ index.php?url=$1 [L]

That would result in this...

www.example.com/register
$_GET['url'] = 'register'

I decided to make the page post/redirect/get pattern. So when I redirect, the url should be something like this...

www.example.com/register/John/Doe/mail

or something similar. That value is entirely in the $_GET['url'] variable. Is there a way to make the url look like this...

www.example.com/register/?name=John&lastName=Doe&mail=[e-mail]

which would be accessabile with $_GET['name'], $_GET['lastName'] etc...?

I know that there is an entire uri in the $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] variable, but i was wondering is there a cleaner way to get the values?

Answer 1

You will need to do your own parsing. I'd strongly recommend you use $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] instead, that will also enable you to simply omit the url= part.

Alternatively you can setup more Rewrite Rules, but that has its downsides, like no dynamic handling without generating those rules on the fly (which is also impossible with Webservers other than Apache, like nginx)
