Laminas-diactoros modify uri path?

Hi all,
trying to make php-proxy do something a bit different in that I would like to be able to change both the target (no problems there) and the path (not working so far)

It appears that the request object has the Uri as a private object and I don’t seem to be able to modify it… is this correct?

Thanks

Hello and welcome to our forums! :smiley:

You can change the URI. Here a short example of the usage:

$request = Laminas\Diactoros\ServerRequestFactory::fromGlobals();
var_dump((string) $request->getUri()); // https://getlaminas.org

$request = $request->withUri(new Laminas\Diactoros\Uri('http://localhost'));
var_dump((string) $request->getUri()); // http://localhost

I hope it helps to find a solution to your problem.

Thanks for that
This code did what I was looking for:

//to change the host and replace '/api/db' from the path

$request = ServerRequestFactory::fromGlobals();
$uri = $request->getUri();
$uri = $uri->withHost('192.168.1.161:5984');
$path = $uri->__toString();
$pattern = '/\/api\/db(.*?)\?/';
preg_match($pattern,$path,$match);
$path = $match[1];
$uri = $uri->withPath($path);

// show fixed uri
print_r($uri->__toString());

//push new uri into request - this is inside a class thus '$this->' also needed a leading '\' on the Laminas class
$this->request = $this->request->withUri(new \Laminas\Diactoros\Uri($uri));

Here is the reference to the related PSR standard (PSR-7) with the explanation for RequestInterface::withUri():
