Rewrite Rules

[nomadicjosh]

I am very weak in the department of rewrite rules. So, if my current rewrite rule is this:

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l

RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]

and all pages are in the form of http://example.com/controller/action/params/, how should I update the rewrite rules for db-to-api or is it best just to run it along side of the application instead of trying to integrate with? Thanks.

@waldoj, @benbalter, or @philipashlock - any thoughts?

I use rewrite rules and had to get around the same problem. I found it easiest to add an "api" directory to the root of my application and have the rewrite rules ignore that directory completely. That way the db-to-api can use its own rewrite rules separate from my own application. The rule looks like this:

RewriteRule ^(api) - [L]

Hope I'm understanding the question correctly and that this helps.

Thanks,
