Class RedirectRoute
Redirect route will perform an immediate redirect. Redirect routes are useful when you want to have Routing layer redirects occur in your application, for when URLs move.
Redirection is signalled by an exception that halts route matching and defines the redirect URL and status code.

__construct() ¶ public
__construct(string $template, array $defaults = [], array $options = [])Constructor
Options
_ext- Defines the extensions used for this route._middleware- Define the middleware names for this route.pass- Copies the listed parameters into params['pass']._host- Define the host name pattern if you want this route to only match specific host names. You can use.*and to create wildcard subdomains/hosts e.g.*.example.commatches all subdomains onexample.com._method- Defines the HTTP method(s) the route applies to. It can be a string or array of valid HTTP method name.

bool_parseArgs() ¶ protected
_parseArgs(string $args, array $context): string[]Parse passed parameters into a list of passed args.
Return true if a given named $param's $val matches a given $rule depending on $context. Currently implemented rule types are controller, action and match that can be combined with each other.
Parameters
-
string$args A string with the passed params. eg. /1/foo

_persistParams() ¶ protected
_persistParams(array $url, array $params): arrayApply persistent parameters to a URL array. Persistent parameters are a special key used during route creation to force route parameters to persist when omitted from a URL array.

-
array$params An array of persistent values to replace persistent ones.
Returns
arrayAn array with persistent parameters applied.
_writeRoute() ¶ protected

Uses the template, defaults and options properties to compile a regular expression that can be used to parse request strings.
