Route66.php
-----------
PHP micro-router _(MIT Licensed)_

- Concise, simple syntax wrapping a full feature set
- Easy install; Composer or single file include (~200 SLOC)
- Low routing overhead (< 1ms)*

Route66 was written to add [some features](#added-feats) to the minimalist [Macaw](https://github.com/NoahBuscher/Macaw) router without bloating it.

#### Nginx config example

```nginx
server {
index index.html index.htm index.php;

location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?/$uri;
}

location ~ \.php$ {
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
include fastcgi_params;
}
}
```

#### Install (require or Composer)

```php
require 'Route66.php';
```

https://packagist.org/packages/leeoniya/route66

```json
{
"require": {
"leeoniya/route66": "dev-master"
}
}
```

#### Basic example

```php
// front controller (index.php)
require 'Route66.php';

use Route66 as R;

R::get('/', function() {
echo 'Hello world!';
});

R::dispatch();
```

#### HTTP methods

```php
// any HTTP method can be bound via static invocation using its name
R::post('/topics', function() {});

// multiple methods
R::match('post|put', '/comment', function() {});

// equivalent to R::match('get|post|put|patch|delete|head|options',..)
R::any('/', function() {};)
```

#### Named params & validation

```php
// basic param (all characters except '/')
R::get('/posts/@id', function($id) {});

// param validated by regex alias
R::get('/posts/@id:alpha', function($id) {});

// aliases and regexs can be broken out for readability
R::get('/posts/@id', function($id) {}, ['id' => ':alpha']);
R::get('/posts/@id', function($id) {}, ['id' => '\w{12}']);

// define a custom alias
R::alias(':date', '[0-9]{4}-[0-9]{2}-[0-9]{2}');
```

#### Optional segments & params

```php
// optional params with defaults (set in handler)
R::get('/posts(/@year(/@month(/@day)))', function($year = 2015, $month = 6, $day = 15) {});

// regex alias without a param (non-capturing)
R::get('/posts(/:slug)', function() {});

// optional trailing slash (though rtrim-ing it from REQUEST_URI before dispatch is faster)
R::get('/blog/?', function() {});
```

#### Un-named params
```php
// un-named params via regex capture groups
R::get('/posts/(\w{12})', function($id) {});
```

#### Route prefixing (base path)

```php
R::base('/blog');
R::get('/posts', function() {}); // maps to /blog/posts

R::base('/admin');
R::get('/login', function() {}); // maps to /admin/login
```

#### Before pre-filter (fall-through)

```php
// before all /admin* routes
R::get('/admin(/:all)', function() {
// verify valid session, etc...
return R::NOHALT; // fall through to additional routes
});

R::get('/admin/dashboard', function() {
// show dashboard...
});
```

#### Custom catch-all (no route found)

```php
R::nomatch(function($meth, $uri) {
header($_SERVER["SERVER_PROTOCOL"] . " 404 Not Found");
exit('404 Not Found.');
});
```

#### Custom dispatch (e.g. internal redirects)

```php
R::dispatch('get', '/blog');
```

#### Route caching

```php
// example of storing compiled routes in session
session_start();

if ($routes = @$_SESSION['routes'])
R::import($routes);

// define all routes here

R::dispatch();

if (!isset($_SESSION['routes']))
$_SESSION['routes'] = R::export();
```

#### Named routes & reverse routing

```php
// un-named
R::get('/users/@id', function($id) {}, ['id'=>':alpha']);

// named (the trailing 2 args can be passed in any order. all below are equivalent.)
R::get('/users/@id', function($id) {}, 'named1');
R::get('/users/@id', function($id) {}, ['id'=>':alpha'], 'named1');
R::get('/users/@id', function($id) {}, 'named1', ['id'=>':alpha']);

// dispatch a named route
R::dispatch('get', 'named1', ['id' => 'abc123']);
```

#### Util methods

```php
R::is_ajax();
R::is_https();
R::redirect($location, $code = 301);
```

#### New features (relative to Macaw)

- Named params (e.g. `@user:alpha`)
- Optional route segments and params, param defaults
- Route-group prefixing
- Param regex & aliases can be broken out for readability
- Short defs for multi-method routes
- Named routes and reverse routing, custom dispatch
- Per-route fall-through control (Macaw has only global)
- Route compilation cache, import/export
- Utility methods for `is_ajax`, `is_https` and `redirect`
- Modified and added regex aliases

\* As with any router, speed will depend on: route quantity & complexity, numbers of params, whether caching is used, server hardware, PHP version, opcode caching.
