I have an Action method in Foo Controller which requires parameters:
public function fooAction($one, $two) {
$a = one;
$b = $two;
}
And I need to forward to that method from the other method of some Boo Controller. And one of those parameters has to be by reference parameter. The only example that the manual has is this:
$result = $this->forward()->dispatch('Boo\Controller\Boo', array('action' => 'boo'));
No any additional parameters. But they write:
$params is an optional array of parameters with which to see a RouteMatch object for purposes of this specific request.
So, I tried:
$result = $this->forward()->dispatch('Boo\Controller\Boo', array(
'action' => 'boo',
'one' => &$one,
'two' => $two,
));
But it doesn't work.
Is there any way to pass additional parameters to forward controller?
UPD:
These do not work too:
$result = $this->forward()->dispatch('Boo\Controller\Boo', array(
'action' => 'boo',
'params' => array(
'one' => &$one,
'two' => $two,
)));
$result = $this->forward()->dispatch('Boo\Controller\Boo', array(
'action' => 'boo',
'options' => array(
'one' => &$one,
'two' => $two,
)));
UPD 2:
I still can't get the functionality I want (to pass parameters with the forward
plugin) but I found other solutions. Before calling the forward
plugin I set the variables to the Request
object and after the forward
I get them from the Request
in my boo Action of my Boo\Controller\BooController:
// in Foo::fooAction
$this->getRequest()->one = &$one;
$this->getRequest()->two = $two;
$result = $this->forward()->dispatch('Boo\Controller\Boo', array('action' => 'boo'));
// in Boo::booAction
$a = $this->getRequest()->one;
$b = $this->getRequest()->two;
Stupid solution, it will not work with Ajax requests. Still interested how to pass parameters with the forward plugin. OR MAYBE how to get them in the booAction. Because there in no anything in the Request
if I pass them with the forward
.
UPD 3 and Final:
I finally found where they've decided to hide parameters I pass with the forward
plugin. They put them in the RouteMatch
object.
- Tryyyy to guess where we've hidden your params... Oh yeeah, they are in the RouteMatch
, of course they are there, didn't you think smth else?
And NO ANY info in the forward
plugin section of the manual!
To get params, I have to do this in my BooController::booAction
:
$param = $this->getEvent()->getRouteMatch()->getParam('nameOfParam');
Boo
a valid Controller-Alias? As pointed out by the documentationBoo
needs to be either a fully qualified ClassName (e.g.Mymodule\Controller\BooController
) or it should be an alias to this controller which you define inside your configuration – Sam'Boo\Controller\Boo'
I have. I wrote like this in the question to make it shorter. Change now to avoid obscurity. – GreenBoo\Controller\Boo
=>Boo\Controller\BooController
? Other than that your first approach is the right one. How do you test if the params are present? Are they defined in route-configuration, too? Tihs blogpost uses the functionality you're looking for a lot: michaelgallego.fr/blog/2012/10/06/… – Sam
