Router

Router defines how requests map to handlers in Quantum modules.

Use it when you need to:

• define routes and route groups
• attach middleware, cache, or rate-limit metadata
• read matched-route data during request handling

Quick example

return function ($route) {
    $route->get('/', 'HomeController', 'index')->name('home');

    $route->add('signin', 'GET|POST', 'AuthController', 'signin')
        ->middlewares(['Guest'])
        ->rateLimit(10, 60);
};

Pattern support

$route->get('posts/[id=:num]', 'PostController', 'show');
$route->get('invite/[code=:alpha:8]', 'InviteController', 'show');
$route->get('verify/[token=:any]?', 'AuthController', 'verify');

Supported parameter types:

• :alpha letters only
• :num digits only
• :any any characters except /

What matters operationally

• Route matching is first-match-wins.
• Group-wide config is best applied by chaining after group(...).
• Route handlers return Quantum\Http\Response.
• Short controller names resolve inside the current module; fully-qualified class names opt into an explicit target.
• Controllers are instantiated directly, so action parameters are the right place for DI-backed request values.
• Route names stay unique inside a module.
