Accept String Parameter in Yii2 Action

Question

In my config file I've set the url rule like this :

<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>/<id:\d+>' => '<controller>/<action>

And what happens is:-

controller/action/123 (work)
controller/action/hello (not work)

But it accepts only digit as the parameter.
What I want is that both digit and string should be accepted.

Please help!!!!

Do you meant the entire string after 123? You need to encode the string because the ' ' (spaces) will cause isses. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.httputility.urlencode%28v=vs.110%29.aspx — Murray Foxcroft, Jan 09 '15 at 08:34
I mean that If action parameter is the string it's not working. — Chhorn Soro, Jan 09 '15 at 08:37

The d+ pattern matches numbers 0-9, so it is working as expected. Change the regex pattern to match strings. Try w+.

Change:

<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>/<id:\d+>' => '<controller>/<action>

To:

<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>/<id:\w+>' => '<controller>/<action>

I have changed d+ to w+ , but some string not work. Ex: hello (work) hello world (not work) 2013-12-11 (not work) Sorry I'm not well in regex. – Chhorn Soro Jan 09 '15 at 08:42
You need to decide what pattern you want to match and build an appropriate Regex. – Murray Foxcroft Jan 09 '15 at 08:44
