Usage

Controller

Controller class

Create a new class in src/Controller that extends the base Controller class (src/Controller/Controller.php)

// src/Controller/ArticleController.php

namespace App\Controller;

class ArticleController extends Controller
{
}

Register in the container

// config/controllers.php

return [
    // ...
    'blog.article.controller' => 'App\Controller\ArticleController'
];

Add a controller action

Create a method in your controller class, with the Request as the first argument, the Response as the second argument, then the route placeholders as separate arguments (and not in an $args array)

// src/Controller/ArticleController.php

use Slim\Http\Request;
use Slim\Http\Response;

// ...

public function getArticle(Request $request, Response $response, $id)
{
}

If you want the default behavior, remove the following lines from config/handlers.php

$container['foundHandler'] = function () {
    // ...

    return new RequestResponseArgs();
};

Routing

You can add routes in config/routes.php directly or include an other routing file:

// config/routes.php

require $app->getConfigurationDir().'/routes/blog.php';

// src/Blog/Resources/config/routes.php
$app->group('/blog', function () {
    $this->get('/article/{id}', 'blog.article.controller:getArticle')->setName('get_blog_article');
});

Templating

Render from the controller

// src/Controller/ArticleController.php

use Slim\Http\Request;
use Slim\Http\Response;

// ...

public function getArticle(Request $request, Response $response, $id)
{
    $articles = Article::find($id);

    return $this->twig->render($response, 'blog/article/show_article.twig', [
        'article' => $article
    ]);
}

Create the template

{# templates/blog/article/show-article.twig #}

{# Extend the base layout from 'templates/layout.twig' #}
{% extends 'layout.twig' %}

{% block title %}{{ parent() }} - Blog article{% endblock %}

{% block body %}
    <div class="ui container">
        {# Display your articles here #}
    </div>
{% endblock %}
