ZF2 Access controller name/action from layout?

[cmple]

Hi,

How can I access the controller's name and action in the layout in ZF2?

Thanks!

[cmple]

I'm stuck

Anyone?

[Pierre Rambaud]

Hi,

In your controller test ;)

var_dump($this->getEvent()->
getRouteMatch());

Regards,

Thanks Pierre,
But this means that I'll have to assign(return) the controller/action variables to the view in every controller action, is there a way to directly get those from inside of the layout.phtml or possibly assign the variables in Module.php to the view?

here is a ZF1 example of what I need:
<?php
   // layout.phtml
   $controller =  Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance()->getRequest()->getControllerName();
   $action = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance()->getRequest()->getActionName();
?>

[cmple]

I finally solved it..

// Module.php
public function init(Manager $moduleManager) {
       
        $sharedEvents = $moduleManager->events()->getSharedManager();
        $sharedEvents->attach('bootstrap', 'bootstrap', array($this, 'initializeView'), 100);
       
        $sharedEvents->attach('Application', 'dispatch', function($e) {
                $controller = $e->getTarget();
                $route = $controller->getEvent()->getRouteMatch();
                $controller->getEvent()->getViewModel()->setVariables(array(
                        'controller' => $route->getParam('controller'),
                        'action' => $route->getParam('action'),
                ));
        },100);
}

// layout.phtml
<?php echo "{$controller}/{$action}; "; ?>

Careful, I would not just blindly overwrite them. Leave the ones that are currently set, or make that logic configurable :)

Not sure what you mean, can you give me a code example?

[Marco Pivetta]

I simply mean that you should check as following (pseudocode):

$viewModel = $controller->getEvent()->getViewModel();
if (!$viewModel->getVariable('controller')) {
    $viewModel->setVariable('controller', $route->getParam('controller'));
}

just replace the following function:

public function init(Manager $moduleManager) {
        $sharedEvents = $moduleManager->events()->getSharedManager();
        $sharedEvents->attach('bootstrap', 'bootstrap', array($this, 'initializeView'), 100);
        $sharedEvents->attach('Application', 'dispatch', function($e) {
                $controller = $e->getTarget();
                $route = $controller->getEvent()->getRouteMatch();
                $viewModel = $controller->getEvent()->getViewModel();
                $variables = $viewModel->getVariables();
                if ( false === isset($variables['controller'])) {
                        $viewModel->setVariable('controller', $route->getParam('controller'));
                }
                if ( false === isset($variables['action']) ) {
                        $viewModel->setVariable('action', $route->getParam('action'));
                }
        },100);
}

make sure your namespace is identical to the event
<?php
namespace Application;
...
$sharedEvents->attach('Application', 'dispatch'...

Do you have the initializeView($e) function in your Module.php?

[sina miandashti]

no

Hello Roman

I have asked myself the same question: How can I pass basic, standard
variables to the View that should be available on every section of the
module. I your case, you just want the names of controller and action
in the View. I also want some more standard variables (locale, uri
etc).

I have come up with a solution that involves a custom
\Zend\Mvc\Controller\ActionController that is then used by the
Controllers.

Please take a look at this solution:

https://gist.github.com/2792133

I am looking at your solution right now.

What are the advantages of these two approaches?

In your approach you always need to use $this->view for returning a view
object. If you use another module from someone else, s/he probably isn't
using your own action controller, so there you don't have those variables.

For very simple parameter injection I'd go with the Module.php listener
approach. It's independent from whatever you do with your controllers and
thus much safer. Keep in mind this can go wrong for perhaps CLI requests or
http requests which do not use the PhpRenderer but instead return a JSON
response.

If you have more complex variables required in your view script, you could
write a view helper for that. Your uri parameters is an excellent example
for that imho.

Hello Jurian

Thank you very much for your comments. At the moment, I am still
playing with (read: learning) ZF2 for dummy projects. I hope that by
the time the first RC comes our, I can start think about using it for
client work.

I agree, this is a significant disadvantage.

I will code the same functionality using this approach. And then
compare them side-by-side.

I agree with you here too.

There are many ways to skin a cat. At the moment, I trying to find
them, so I can make an informed decision about which one is most
suitable to my applications.

Again, thanks for your feedback.

To solve the uri issue, I have come up with this ViewHelper:

https://gist.github.com/2794307

Where it gets its Request via DI

    'di' => array (
        'instance' => array (
            'My\View\Helper\Uri' => array (
                'parameters' => array (
                    'request' => 'Zend\Http\PhpEnvironment\Request'
                )
            )
        )
    )

I prefer this solution too.

Thanks for your feedback.
