Why is Request Object empty

Bill Lions

Why is the request object an giving me an empty array?
/blog/show/2

$httpRequest = $this->getHttpRequest();
$keys = array_keys( $httpRequest->query );

The route is fine, and if I manually set the response, it works, but I need to get the blog id from the query string.

Thanks, Bill

Why do you need to get the ID manually?

Usually it should be Router's job to parse it and pass it to your action/render method.

You'll need to show us a bigger piece of code…

read this and it should be clear after reading

this is the dump from tracy, not really seeing anything here either..

Tracy also reports


/bhajan/addplaylist[/<id>] 	presenter = Bhajan:Bhajan
action = addplaylist
id = null

Bhajan:Bhajan:addplaylist
id = 3

I can see initially, the request is null as a default, but then is 3 in the “Matched as” column, (as specified in the url).

Am I somehow trying to get the value before it is set? Is that even possible?

So, on further investigation I came up with a solution that did not require the use of the request object to gain the id parameter…


 public function actionAddPlaylist( $id )
 {
        if ($this->isAjax())
        {
                $result = $this->database->table('lyrics')->get( $id );
                $title = $result->title;

                $user = $this->getUser();

                // only logged in users may create playlists
                if( $user->isLoggedIn() )
                {
                        $data = ['id'=>$id, 'title' => $title];
                        $this->sendJson($data);
                }
        }
}

There is some else conditions for the if statements, but that is the gist of it.
Is this the ‘correct/nette’ way to do this?
Passing the parameter to the action?

You should dump $user->getIdentity()

I dont get why you use action for ajax, use handle methods https://doc.nette.org/…ication/ajax

Bill Lions

Thanks, I was previously unaware of these handle methods.
Only been using nette for a week :)
