In Kohana, can you trigger a 404 error?

I have a controller called articles, which creates the articles model which gets the relevant data from the database.

I want to, if the method I call returns false, to trigger a 404 error. This is what I have so far.

 $articleName =  $this->uri->segment('articles');

 $article = new Articles_Model();

 $data = $article->getArticleUsingSlug($articleName);

 if (!$data) {
    Kohana::show_404; // This doesn't work.
 }

I just added my own custom hook which redirects the user to an actual 404 (/articles/page-not-found/) as triggered by Kohana, but is there a way I can invoke its internal 404 method to make Kohana give up processing my controller and use my new hook ?

Solution

  • This works for me:

    Event::run('system.404');

    What version of Kohana are you using?
