I am re-building some features from a legacy website built in PERL into Laravel 5.2.
Eventually we will migrate entirely to Laravel, but in the meantime I need to figure out how to integrate Laravel into our new site.
Though symlinks and Apache rewrite rules I have managed to get Laravel responding to requests.
What I need though is to get Laravel to build the route based on the PATH_INFO instead of the REQUEST_URI.
[REQUEST_URI] => /1234/us-en/l/dummy
[SCRIPT_NAME] => /l/public/index.php
[PATH_INFO] => /1234/us-en/dummy
You could extend https://github.com/laravel/framework/blob/5.2/src/Illuminate/Routing/Router.php to modify some protected/public functions of it to suite in your case.
and create your own ServiceProvider, replacing https://github.com/laravel/framework/blob/5.2/src/Illuminate/Routing/RoutingServiceProvider.php#L39
Or extends that service provider, is possible.
Thank you @vvvphpdev. You got me in the right frame of mind to get the right file.
My solution is to add to the Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request prepareRequestUri() function the following code:
$this->server->remove('ORIG_PATH_INFO');
}
if ($requestUri !== $this->server->get('PATH_INFO')) {
$requestUri = '/' . $this->server->get('PATH_INFO');
}
// normalize the request URI to ease creating sub-requests from this request
$this->server->set('REQUEST_URI', $requestUri);
However I would like to update it so that can be an optional case.
Lol, you must check my answer instead of yours @nchristiansen
I told you, you could extends those classes and replace it inside your config/app.php under key providers, are you familiar with class wrapping design?
