Route regexp requirements: exclude specific words

I am building an application with Symfony 2.3.5 to control my music. I'm having trouble setting up routes.

I want to create 3 routes:

  • Show artist: /music/mickael_jackson
  • Edit Artist: /music/mickael_jackson/edit
  • Show album: /music/mickael_jackson/thriller

As you can show, there will be a conflict between the routes for "Edit Artist" and "Show Album": "Edit Artist" is set to "Show Album Route" and give me 404 not found.

I'm trying to use regular expressions to exclude keywords editand deletefrom the route "Gallery".

I found here: Regular expression to exclude a word / line (accepted answer with a little change), but it does not work, I have an error because my "Show album" route does not match the regular expression.

An exception:

An exception has been thrown during the rendering of a template ("Parameter "nameCanonical" for route "corum_music_album_show" must match "/(?!edit|delete)" ("beneath_the_encasing_of_ashes" given) to generate a corresponding URL.") in CorumMusicBundle:Artist:show.html.twig at line 36.

My route:

* @Route(
*         "{artistNameCanonical}/{nameCanonical}",
*         name = "corum_music_album_show",
*         requirements={"nameCanonical" = "^/(?!edit|delete)$"},
*         options = {"expose"=true}
* )

I can not find what is wrong in the configuration.

Thanks for the help.

use this template ^(?!.*(edit|delete)$).* I also don’t know the symphony

Remove the slash

*         requirements={"nameCanonical" = "^(?!edit|delete)$"},

as it is already included in your full path.

Just move the "Edit Artist" route to the "Show Album" route. Of course, you cannot use “edit” as the name of the album, but I suppose you can live with it.
