Hi, I'm writing a blog application, which allows me to create new blog post and have them listed on a page.
In database, I have a table called "articles" which contains some field (id, title, content_text,...). For now, the URL to access to a specific blog post has the following structure : https://domain.com/blog/readArticle?articleId=23. Where : - Blog is the controller - readArticle() is the function that retrieves the blog article data - 23 is the ID of the article in the DB This is easy to implement, but no user/SEO friendly. I would like to improve the URL structure to something like: https://domain.com/blog/readArticle?article=this-is-an-article or https://domain.com/blog/this-is-an-article ... and I'm looking for the best way to do this. Should I modify my backend so that it will search the article based on its title (or 'slug'). Or should I use the 'router' in some advanced ways? I'm sure a lot of people has already done that. Any ideas or suggestions?
