Resource Pluralization as an option.

[stephpy]

Hi,

Actually, routing use pluralization automatically for resources. What do you think about an option to be able to deactivate that ? For sure, by default it'll be activated ...

It could be defined on config:

fos_rest:
   resource:
       pluralize_path: true

And even on RouteResource annotation ?

/**
*@RouteResource("User", false) 
*/

+1 Can be very handy in my situation where every resource has one name, not a plural and singular one. Just one singular name, like the name for an entity.

i think if at all pluralization needs to be disabled only on the resource level, since otherwise it can cause incompatibilities between Bundles expecting the option to be on or off.

@lsmith77 could you provide pointers to how this should be implemented as part of the RouteResource annotation?

[lsmith77]

look at the annotation class and add another property. this will result in having another attribute to set in the annotation

Ok, I tried that. I got quite far, but my unittests fail with the error:

Doctrine\Common\Annotations\AnnotationException: [Syntax Error] Expected Value, got 'r' at position 31 in class FOS\RestBundle\Tests\Fixtures\Controller\AnnotatedNonPlurlizedArticleController.

Here's the value I tried:

/**
 *  @Rest\RouteResource("Article", false)
 */
class AnnotatedNonPlurlizedArticleController extends FosRestController

And the Annotation definition:

/**
 * RouteResource annotation class.
 * @Annotation
 * @Target("CLASS")
 */
class RouteResource
{
    /**
     * @var string required
     */
    public $resource;

    /**
     * @var boolean
     */
    public $pluralize = false;


}

can you just open a PR with your work? makes reviewing easier.

[tarjei]

I'll do that tomorrow.

This issue/PR seems to be abandoned ... I will continue this work in a new PR.
