Array Values After Key

[ShoeLace1291]

I'm trying to split a url into segments so that a url would be stored in an array. 

 

Example:

A url like this http://localhost/application/blog/view/Test-Blog-Entry/1

 

Would look like this in an array:

array('blog', 'post', 'Test-Blog-Entry', '1');

 

It's an MVC url so 'blog' would be controller, 'post', would be method and the last two would be variables.  I want to display the variable values of the array.

 

Is there an easy way to do this?

You can break this down to something more specific to your needs as a function.

 

like this:

<?php
$url = "http://localhost/application/blog/view/Test-Blog-Entry/1";

function explodePaths($new_parse_url) {        
            $get_path_parse_url = parse_url($new_parse_url, PHP_URL_PATH);                     
            $path_parts = explode("/",$get_path_parse_url);

            RETURN $path_parts;
}                   

echo "url: $url<br />";
$paths = explodePaths($url);          
print_r($paths);

?>

this returns:

Array ( [0] => [1] => application [2] => blog [3] => view [4] => Test-Blog-Entry [5] => 1 )

 

 

or since I have the complete you can have this too if need it:

<?php
$url = "http://localhost/application/blog/view/Test-Blog-Entry/1";

function getparsedHost($new_parse_url) {
                $parsedUrl = parse_url(trim($new_parse_url));
                return trim($parsedUrl[host] ? $parsedUrl[host] : array_shift(explode('/', $parsedUrl[path], 2)));
} 
$new_parse_url = $url;            
            $get_parse_url = parse_url($new_parse_url, PHP_URL_HOST);
            $host_parse_url .= str_replace(array('Www.','WWW.'), '', $get_parse_url);
            $host_parse_url = strtolower($host_parse_url);
            $port_parse_url = parse_url($new_parse_url, PHP_URL_PORT);
            $user_parse_url = parse_url($new_parse_url, PHP_URL_USER);
            $pass_parse_url = parse_url($new_parse_url, PHP_URL_PASS);
            $get_path_parse_url = parse_url($new_parse_url, PHP_URL_PATH);                     
            $path_parts = explode("/",$get_path_parse_url);
            $extract_path_1 = $path_parts[1];
            $extract_path_2 = $path_parts[2];
            $extract_path_3 = $path_parts[3];
            $extract_path_4 = $path_parts[4];
            $extract_path_5 = $path_parts[5];
            $path_parse_url .= str_replace(array('Www.','WWW.'), '', $get_path_parse_url);
            $query_parse_url = parse_url($new_parse_url, PHP_URL_QUERY);
            $query_parse_url = "?$query_parse_url";
            $query_parse_url = rtrim($query_parse_url, '#');
            $fragment_parse_url = parse_url($new_parse_url, PHP_URL_FRAGMENT);
            $fragment_parse_url = "#$fragment_parse_url";
            $hostpath_url = "$host_parse_url$path_parse_url";
            $hostpath_url = rtrim($hostpath_url, '?');
            $query_parse_url = rtrim($query_parse_url, '?');

            $hostpathquery_url = "$host_parse_url$path_parse_url$query_parse_url";

            $complete_url = "$host_parse_url$port_parse_url$user_parse_url$pass_parse_url$path_parse_url$query_parse_url$fragment_parse_url";
            $complete_url = rtrim($complete_url, '#');
//adding http back to front, can do substr checks in url to suit your needs
$complete_url = "http://$complete_url";        

$parsed = getparsedHost($new_parse_url);          
echo "url: $url<br />";
echo "parsed: $parsed <br />";
echo "host parse: $host_parse_url<br />";
echo "path parse: $path_parse_url<br />";
echo "extract path 1: $extract_path_1<br />";
echo "extract path 2: $extract_path_2<br />";
echo "extract path 3: $extract_path_3<br />";
echo "extract path 4: $extract_path_4<br />";
echo "extract path 5: $extract_path_5<br />";
echo "host and path: $hostpath_url<br />";
echo "complete: $complete_url<br />";

?>

Hmm ok maybe I wasn't clear enough, but how would I get an array like that to print an array like this:

 

array('blog', 'view', 1);

 

How wouold I get that to return as an array like this:

array(1)

you could just remove the first two variables, or grab them off the front of the array

 

// (continuing from QuickOldCar's post)
$paths = explodePaths($url);

$controller = array_shift($paths); // Pull off the first value
$method = array_shift($paths); // Pull off the next value

print_r($paths); // should only have the remaining array items.
