Controllers

Create a class that inherits StandardPage to create a controller. Inside the controller, you have access to request paramaters, menus and context. Using a controller is a good options when selecting the render view (i.e. *.inc) dynamic at request time. 

<?php

use UUP\Site\Page\Web\StandardPage;

// 
// Use happy-new-year as request URI for this controller.
// 
class HappyNewYearPage extends StandardPage
{

        public function __construct()
        {
                parent::__construct("Happy new year!");         // Set page title
        }

        public function printContent()
        {
                printf("Happy new year %d, %s", date('Y'), $this->session->user);
        }

}

Mapping target script

When looking for a matching controller, the character immediate following a '-' in the request URI gets converted to upper case. Finally, the Page suffix is appended. Examples of request URI to class names:

URIClassFile
happy-new-year HappyNewYearPage happy-new-year.php
index IndexPage index.php
about AboutPage about.php

Name conflicts:

Using the same name for directory and script in the same location will cause a conflict when dispatching a route. Just avoid it is the simple solution.

Secure content

It's possible to protect content by creating a secure page. The same can be done by calling $this->authorize() in a standard page controller.

The markup can be hidden automatic from unauthenticated users (guest) by adding the custom attribute auth="true" on any element. Hiding content won't protect anyone from viewing it and need to be accompanied by validation in request handler (called from this page).
