How to evaluate dynamic values in URL by using regular expression?

I have a route "/api/books/{id}/status" and I am wondering how can I evaluate a dynamic value ("{id}") by using regular expression, so I could restrict this route in my .htaccess file?

Solution

  • I'm sure what you're up to. But to evaluate dynamic values in URL you have to use regular expressions. This has nothing to do with symfony. Apache mod_rewrite Introduction 

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} api/books/[\d]+/status

    If you want to restrict access to routes, you should use the security component of symfony.
