Requirements

This library is supported by PHP versions 5.6 or higher and is compatible with HHVM versions 3.0 or higher.

Installation

The preferred way to install this extension is through Composer.

To install PHP Url library, simply:

$ composer require Josantonius/Url

The previous command will only install the necessary files, if you prefer to download the entire source code you can use:

$ composer require Josantonius/Url --prefer-source

You can also clone the complete repository with Git:

$ git clone https://github.com/Josantonius/PHP-Url.git

Or install it manually:

Download Url.php:

$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Josantonius/PHP-Url/master/src/Url.php

Available Methods

Available methods in this library:

- Get URL from the current page:

Url::getCurrentPage();

# Return (string) → current URL

- Get base URL of the site:

Url::getBaseUrl();

- Get protocol from current or passed URL:

Url::getProtocol($url);

# Return (string) → http or https

- Check if it is a secure site (SSL):

Url::isSSL($url);

# Return (boolean)

- Get the server name:

Url::getDomain($url);

# Return (string|false) → server name or false

- Get URI:

Url::getUri();

# Return (string) → path/URL

- Remove subdirectories from uri if they exist:

Url::getUriMethods();

# Return (string) → method1/method2/method3

- Set parameters from the url and return url without them:

If a url is received as: http://www.web.com/&key=value&key-2=value params will be saved as GET values and return: http://www.web.com/.

If a url is received as: http://www.web.com/?key=value&key-2=value GET parameters are maintained and return: http://www.web.com/.

Url::setUrlParams($url);

# Return (string|false) → URL without parameters

- Get the server port:

Url::getPort();

# Return (int) → server port

- Add back slash if it does not exist at the end of the route:

Url::addBackSlash($uri, $position);

This method will remove all slashes that are in the indicated position before adding them. E. g. addBackSlash('sample///',' both'); will return /sample/.

# Return (string|false) → path/url/ | /path/url | /path/url/ or false if a correct type is not entered.

- Go to the previous url:

Url::previous();

# Return (void)

- Redirect to chosen url:

Url::redirect($url);

# Return (void)

- Converts plain text urls into HTML links:

Second argument will be used as the url label <a href=''>$custom</a>.

Url::autoLink($url, $custom);

# Return (string) → returns the data with links created around urls

- This function converts and url segment to an safe one:

For example: test name @132 will be converted to test-name--123.

It will also return all letters in lowercase.

Url::generateSafeSlug($slug);

# Return (string) → slug

- Get all url parts based on a / seperator:

Url::segmentUri($uri);

# Return (string) → segments

- Get first item segment:

Url::getFirstSegment($segments);

# Return (string) → segment

- Get last item segment:

Url::getLastSegment($segments);

# Return (string) → segment
