Create a simple module for Drupal 8 - Step 2 - Create Simple Page

1. Create a info.yml file

Here : test.info.yml

name: 'Test Module'

description: 'Test module for Drupal8.ovh'

type: module

core: 8.x

varsion: 0.1-dev

package: Test

   

2. Create a .routing.yml

Here : test.routing.yml

test.my_page:

  path: '/mypage'

  defaults:

    _controller: '\Drupal\test\Controller\TestController::home'

    _title: 'My First Drupal 8 Page'

  requirements:

    _permission: 'access content'

3. Then create the Controller and put into module_root_folder/src/Controller/

Here : test/src/Controller/

<?php

/**

 * @file

 * @author Your Name

 * Contains \Drupal\test\Controller\TestController.

 */

namespace Drupal\test\Controller;

/**

 * Provides route responses for the Test module.

 */

class TestController {

    /**

     * Returns a simple page.

     *

     * @return array

     *   A simple renderable array.

     */

    public function home() {

        $element = array(

            '#markup' => 'Hello. This is my First Page',

        );

        return $element;

    }

}

4. Now you can visit your programmatically created page from your.domain/mypage

Tips: Set page title

$request = \Drupal::request();

if ($route = $request->attributes->get(\Symfony\Cmf\Component\Routing\RouteObjectInterface::ROUTE_OBJECT)) {

    $route->setDefault('_title', "Access denied");

}
