Question

I currently have an htaccess file on my root dir. I created a NEW htaccess file inside of callbacks/api and entered this:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /callbacks/api
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.(json|xml|csv|txt|printr)$ ./endpoint.php?api_request=$1&api_response_type=$2

I am following the same rewrite rules that I have in my other htaccess (that work just fine). However in this instance I pass the following URL:

domain.com/callbacks/api/v1/test_rest.xml

Inside of my endpoint.php file I have:

<?
//just making sure the 500 is not due to php
//so lets just dump the GET's
var_dump($_GET);
?>

Am i missing a flag required at the end of my rewrite rule?

Answer 1

Try this:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /callbacks/api
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.(json|xml|csv|txt|printr)$ ./endpoint.php?api_request=$1& api_response_type=$2   [L]

I did not test the rule, just added 2 lines to prevent loops.
