How to get param without using "?" from url in cakephp 3.x

Question

In this project, I have to get param from url in cakephp 3.x as the project documentation.

But it's strange given url in doc, it's like that (New param passing url)

www.example.com/param_name/param_value

I can get param value in old method parameter passing url like that below.

www.example.com?param_name=param_value

But in newer method using "/" instead of "?" and "=", I don't know how to get that param value.

in your routes.php

$routes->connect('/param_name/:param_value',['controller' => 'YourController','action' => 'view'])-> setPass(['param_value']);

in src/Controller/YourController.php

public function view($param_value)
{
   echo $param_value;
}
