Easily add sub domains to your CakePHP application using route prefixes. Based on code created by chinpei215.

Requirements

  • CakePHP 3.3+
  • PHP 5.5.9+

Installation

You can install this plugin into your CakePHP application using composer.

The recommended way to install composer packages is:

composer require --prefer-dist multidimensional/cakephp-subdomains

Setup

Load the plugin by running following command in terminal:

bin/cake plugin load Multidimensional/Subdomains -b -r

Or by manually adding following line to your app's config/bootstrap.php:

Plugin::load('Multidimensional/Subdomains', ['bootstrap' => true, 'routes' => true]);

In order to get the most out of the HTML link generator in CakePHP, we recommend installing our custom Subdomain HTML helper into your master AppView.php.

// src/View/AppView.php
class AppView extends View
{
    public function initialize()
    {
        parent::initialize();
        $this->loadHelper('Html', [
            'className' => 'Multidimensional/Subdomains.SubdomainHtml'
        ]);
    }
}

Configuration

Run the installation script command in termainl:

bin/cake SubdomainsInstall

This command will allow you to automatically create a configuration file with the list of your subdomains for the plugin to use. You can also run this command to add or delete additional subdomains.

Alternatively, you can create a config/subdomains.php file in your main CakePHP config folder:

return [
    'Multidimensional/Subdomains' => 
        ['Subdomains' =>
            ['{SUBDOMAIN_1}', '{SUBDOMAIN_2}', /*...*/ '{SUBDOMAIN_N}']
        ]
    ];

Usage

The plugin will automatically add the subdomains you specify as CakePHP prefixes.

When generating links, include the subdomain prefix you want to use and the Router will automatically create the link using the subdomain URL.

//Link to http://admin.example.com/articles/
$this->Html->link(['prefix'=>'admin', 'controller'=>'Articles', 'action'=>'index']);

Advanced options when the custom HTML helper is installed.

//Link to http://example.com/articles/
$this->Html->link(['prefix'=>false, 'controller'=>'Articles', 'action'=>'index']);

//Link to http://www.example.com/articles/
$this->Html->link(['prefix'=>'www', 'controller'=>'Articles', 'action'=>'index']);

Note: The www prefix should be used sparingly. If you require the www to be prepended to your domain, we would recommend installing a middleware plugin that forces the www to be added to the domain. In any case, setting 'prefix' = false is the best practice.
