How do I create pretty URLs? | Can You Explain It? Knowledge Bite
Your client on Magento 2 wants a feature that allows customers to view a list of physical stores. To fulfill this requirement, you've developed a "StoreLocator" module. You have built the store detail page, which is visible at https://{website-url}/stores/view/index/id/1. However, the requirements state that stores should have user-friendly urls, like https:{{website-url}/stores/kansas-city-ks-oak-park-mall.
❓Given the focus on best practices and maintainability, what would be the most suitable method to implement these user-friendly URLs?
ℹ️ How do I create pretty URLs?
Implement Routerinterface and add it to the RouterList array.
Examples:
vendor/magento/module-robots/etc/frontend/di.xml
Magento\Robots\Controller\Router
Create a URL generator and interpreter. Ensure that caching works as expected (don't forget IdentityInterface on the model).
