This is a cool feature of CakePHP. Using the generated URLs, we can easily change the structure of URL in the application without modifying the whole code.
url( string|array|null $url null , boolean $full false )
The above function will take two arguments −
  • The first argument is an array specifying any of the following − 'controller', 'action', 'plugin'. Additionally, you can provide routed elements or query string parameters. If string, it can be given the name of any valid url string.
  • If true, the full base URL will be prepended to the result. Default is false.

Example

Make Changes in the config/routes.php file as shown in the following program.
config/routes.php
<?php
   use Cake\Core\Plugin;
   use Cake\Routing\RouteBuilder;
   use Cake\Routing\Router;

   Router::defaultRouteClass('DashedRoute');
   Router::scope('/', function (RouteBuilder $routes){
      $routes->connect('/generate',['controller'=>'Generates','action'=>'index']);
   });

   Plugin::routes();
Create a GeneratesController.php file at src/Controller/GeneratesController.php. Copy the following code in the controller file.
src/Controller/GeneratesController.php
<?php
   namespace App\Controller;
   use App\Controller\AppController;
   use Cake\ORM\TableRegistry;
   use Cake\Datasource\ConnectionManager;

   class GeneratesController extends AppController{
      public function index(){
      }
   }
?>
Create a folder Generates at src/Template and under that folder create a View file called index.ctp. Copy the following code in that file.
src/Template/Generates/index.ctp

Execute the above example by visiting the following URL −

The above URL will produce the following output −
