Question

I have a default module in Zend Framework 2:

namespace Application\Controller;

use Zend\Mvc\Controller\AbstractActionController;
use Zend\View\Model\ViewModel;

class IndexController extends AbstractActionController
{
    public function indexAction()
    {
        return new ViewModel();
    }
}

How can I get the name of the current controller or action name … and pass it to the view and/or layout?
Have to say that I am just starting with the ZF2 framework.

Answer 1

Try as below for ZF2

$this->getEvent()->getRouteMatch()->getParam('action', 'index'); 

$this->getEvent()->getRouteMatch()->getParam('controller', 'index');
