Extensions

Just like with Module and Control Panel routing, you have to extend your ExpressionEngine Addon file to use the cooresponding Add-on Controller Base route. In this case, that’ll be ExpressionEngine\Service\Addon\Extension.

You’ll also have to add a new property to your Extension called $route_namespace which is the namespace for route objects.

Update Extension File

use ExpressionEngine\Service\Addon\Extension;

class Your_addon_ext extends Extension
{
    protected $route_namespace = 'Namespace\For\Your\Controllers';
}

About $route_namespace

Note that $route_namespace isn’t directly one to one. The Add-on Controller does some magic to keep things compartmentalized. Using the below example, the namespace used to locate your Route objects would be Namespace\For\Your\Controllers\Extensions\Routes.

Create Route

Note that your process method’s signature should match up with the ExpressionEngine hooks passed parameters.

namespace YourAddon\Addon\Controllers\Extension\Routes;

use ExpressionEngine\Service\Addon\Extension\AbstractRoute;

class TemplatePostParse extends AbstractRoute
{
    public function process(string $final_template, bool $is_partial, int $site_id, array $currentTemplateInfo): string
    {
        return $final_template;
    }
}
