'/' . $id; }; +Using HTTP verbs in routes +========================== + +It is possible to use HTTP verbs (request method) to define your routing rules. +This is particularly useful when building RESTful applications. You can use standard HTTP +verbs (GET, PUT, POST, DELETE, PATCH) or a custom one such (e.g. PURGE). HTTP verb rules +are case-insensitive. All you need to do is to add the verb as an array key to your route. +Example:: + + $route['products']['put'] = 'product/insert'; + +In the above example, a PUT request to URI "products" would call the ``Product::insert()`` +controller method. + +:: + + $route['products/(:num)']['DELETE'] = 'product/delete/$1'; + +A DELETE request to URL with "products" as first the segment and a number in the second will be +mapped to the ``Product::delete()`` method, passing the numeric value as the first parameter. + +Using HTTP verbs is of course, optional. + Reserved Routes =============== diff --git a/user_guide_src/source/general/styleguide.rst b/user_guide_src/source/general/styleguide.rst index 5613eabec..6718bc342 100644 --- a/user_guide_src/source/general/styleguide.rst +++ b/user_guide_src/source/general/styleguide.rst @@ -565,7 +565,7 @@ the ability to change this in the php.ini, you can often enable it with:: ini_set('display_errors', 1); .. note:: Setting the `display_errors - <http://php.net/manual/en/ref.errorfunc.php#ini.display-errors>`_ + <http://php.net/manual/en/errorfunc.configuration.php#ini.display-errors>`_ setting with ``ini_set()`` at runtime is not identical to having it enabled in the PHP environment.
