How Generating URLs from a template correctly in Symfony2/Twig

Question

I'm working with Symfony2 and:

I have this in the routing.yml

_welcome:     resource: "@AcmeBundle/Controller/"     type:     annotation 

I this method within a controller:

/**  * @Route("/{page}")  */ public function staticAction($page) {     return $this->render('AcmeBundle:Static:'.$page.'.html.twig'); } 

To generate common pages:

/home /contact  /privacy 

But when I make the url on the menu:

<a href="{{ path('_welcome', {'page': 'home'}) }}">Home</a> <a href="{{ path('_welcome', {'page': 'contact'}) }}">Contact</a> <a href="{{ path('_welcome', {'page': 'privacy'}) }}">Privacy</a> 

And I Symfony generates these urls:

…./?page=home …./?page=contact …./?page=privacy 

And the right would be:

/home /contact /privacy 

What must I do?

You've to add a route name in your controller route annotations as follow,

/**  * @Route("/{page}", name="static")  */ public function staticAction($page) {     // ...  } 

You could then call the twig path helper using that name,

<a href="{{ path('static', {'page': 'home'}) }}">Home</a>
