Slim PHP and GET Parameters

Question

I\'m playing with Slim PHP as a framework for a RESTful API, and so far it\'s great. Super easy to work with, but I do have one question I can\'t find the answer to. How do I gr

Answer 1

IF YOU WANT TO GET PARAMS WITH PARAM NAME

$value = $app->request->params('key');

The params() method will first search PUT variables, then POST variables, then GET variables. If no variables are found, null is returned. If you only want to search for a specific type of variable, you can use these methods instead:

//--- GET variable

$paramValue = $app->request->get('paramName');

//--- POST variable

$paramValue = $app->request->post('paramName');

//--- PUT variable

$paramValue = $app->request->put('paramName');

IF YOU WANT TO GET ALL PARAMETERS FROM REQUEST WITHOUT SPECIFYING PARAM NAME, YOU CAN GET ALL OF THEM INTO ARRAY IN FORMAT KEY => VALUE

$data = json_decode( $app->request->getBody() ) ?: $app->request->params();

$data will be an array that contains all fields from request as below

$data = array(
    'key' => 'value',
    'key' => 'value',
    //...
);

Hope it helps you!
