You just have to write the code. Your url_factory can:
1. accept the query in the form " /type/product/name/ducted_fan_26_inch_radial"
and append it to the /circuit/action
("circuit/action/type/product/name/ducted_fan_26_inch_radial")
2. If query does not start with "/", parse the query into the "/" version
(replace ";" or "&" with "/", replace "?" with "/" or add slash)
In Active4D.a4l use modified form of parsing the factory url. You have to
account for the normal stuff (. in url, etc). then write something like:
$inQuery := a4d.web.collectionToQuery(_query)
// you should not have any for your scheme
if ($inurl[[-1]] = "/")
$inurl := substring($inurl;1;length($inurl)-1)
end if
$cnt := split string($inurl;"/";$chunks)
// if $cnt is > 2, it better be an even number!
case of
:($cnt = 0)
return ("/index.a4d")
:($cnt = 1) // controller only index.
$cir := $chunks{1}
$act := "index" // or whatever your main action is
:($cnt = 2) // circuit action only
$cir := $chunks{1}
$act := $chunks{2}
else
$cir := $chunks{1}
$act := $chunks{2}
for ($i; 3; $cnt;2 )
_query{$chunks{$i}} := $chunks{$i+1}
end for
end case
_query{fusebox.conf.fuseaction} := '$cir.$act'
return ("/index.a4d")
Not tested, but I've used techniques like this for years.
