I have a web service on third party system that return property of doctor and I have a content type named "doctor". I want when user go to a url like doctor/23 drupal create a node of type doctor based on url arg and show this node to user. for that and with @zaporylie help i create a custom controller like bellow
create a Routing:
showdoctor.load_doctor_controller_load: path: 'doctor/{doctor_id}' defaults: _controller: '\Drupal\showdoctor\Controller\LoadDoctorController::load' _title: 'load' requirements: _permission: 'access content' and my controller like this:
class LoadDoctorController extends ControllerBase { public function load($doctor_id) { $result = RestCurl::post("http://myrest_server.com", [ 'filter' => ['doctor.id' => $doctor_id], ]); $fullname = $result['data']->message->data[0]->firstName; $fullname = $fullname . ' ' . $result['data']->message->data[0]->lastName; // Fetch doctor node with EFQ $query = \Drupal::entityQuery('node'); $query->condition('type', 'doctor'); $query->condition('field_doctor_id', $doctor_id); $nids = $query->execute(); if (!$nids) { $node = Node::create([ 'type' => 'doctor', 'title' => $fullname, 'uid' => 1, ]); $node->set('field_doctor_id', $doctor_id); $node->save(); $element = array( '#markup' => $node, ); return $element; } else { $element = array( '#markup' => $node, ); return $element; } } } Now for example when in go to doctor/23 page i see a page with load title. and if i refresh this page i see doctor page correctly. i think my problem is return value.
