Description Sometimes when generating URLs you have situations where you don’t want the default value in the URL. Syntax /** * @Route("/blog/{!page}", name="blog_list") */ public function list($page = 1) { // ... } $url = $router->generate('blog_list'); // $url = '/blog/1' $url = $router->generate('blog_list', ['page' => 1]); // $url = '/blog/1' $url = $router->generate('blog_list', ['page' => 7]); // $url = '/blog/7' /** * @Route("/blog/{page}.{!_format<html|json>?html}", name="blog_list") */ public function list($page = 1) { // ... }
