I want to get a parameter from a link in Symfony.
When I visit the URL, I should be forwarded to the index page. I want to get the value of the token parameter. The link looks like this:
http://www.myapp.com/?token=khdfhgkdfjghjdfgd354dfgdfg454dfg
In my controller, I should get the value of the token.
But how do I do this using the GET method?
This is a simple task, simply type hint the Request object in your controller method like so...
use Sensio\Bundle\FrameworkExtraBundle\Configuration\Route;
class MyController extends Controller
{
/**
* @Route("/", name="index")
*/
public function indexAction(Request $request)
{
$token = $request->query->get('token');
// ...
}
/**
* @Route("/{token}", name="index_with_token")
*/
public function indexWithTokenAction(Request $request, $token)
{
// ...
}
}
You can do like this :
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request;
use Sensio\Bundle\FrameworkExtraBundle\Configuration\Route;
/**
* @Route("/your-url/{token}",
* defaults={"token"="...."}, name="url_token")
*/
public function yourAction(Request $request) {
// $_GET parameters
$request->query->get('name'); // in your case name is token
// $_POST parameters
$request->request->get('name');
}
Request before the parameter $request mean?
Request something that only Symphony uses? Because on the PHP documentation I couldn't find Request as a valid type.
