Routes configuration for subdomains to modules

Communities ColdBox HMVC

Hi,

Apologies in advance if this questions has been asked, I couldn’t find it though in my searches.

I’m trying to set up my routes file so that subdomains for my URL point to custom modules in my modules_app folder. For example:

http://mysite.com/admin becomes http://admin.mysite.com

And handlers/actions are presented without the name of the module in the URL like:

http://mysite.com/dashboard/settings/edit becomes http://dashboard.mysite.com/settings/edit

Does anybody have some example code on how to achieve this?

Thanks in advance…

Jonah,

The easiest way to do this by customizing the PathInfoProvider( event ) method in your config/Routes.cfm.

Then you can detect the inbound subdomain and prepend the module assignment to the route string.

Example:

function PathInfoProvider(Event){

var pathArray = listToArray( CGI.PATH_INFO, “/” );

switch( CGI.SERVER_NAME ){

case “my.sub.domain.com”:{

arrayPrepend( pathArray, “myModuleEntryPoint” );

break;

}

}

return arrayToList( pathArray, “/” );

}

HTH,

Jon
