### Defining routes

[](#defining-routes)

Add routes for HTTP method(s) and URL path (as mask). Callback can processing request and editing response.

```
// predefined HTTP method
$router->get('/', function (Request $request, Response $response) {
  $response->body = 'Hello world';
});

// predefined HTTP method
$router->post('/foo/bar', function(Request $request, Response $response) {
  $response->code = Response::S201_CREATED;
});

// own definition of valid HTTP methods (PUT and PATCH)
$router->add(Router::PUT | Router::PATCH, '/foo/bar', function (Request $request, Response $response) {
  $response->code = Response::S204_NO_CONTENT;
  $response->addHeader('X-Lipsum-Message', 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet');
});
```

### Parameters in mask

[](#parameters-in-mask)

For catching segments of URL use `{` and `}`.

Optional segments of URL is in between `[` and `]`.

Definition of regex validation for catching segment is after `:`.

All catching segments is in `Request::$params`.

```
$router->get('/foo/{bar:\d+}[/{baz:[a-z]+}]', function(Request $request, Response $response) {
  $response->contentType = 'application/json';
  $response->body = json_encode($request->params);
});
```
