What is the difference between 'url' and 'path' in symfony2.3
symfony, twig
Solution
They are very similar.
path()
Generates a relative/absolute path :
`path('contact')` will generate `/contact`
url()
Generates a scheme-relative/absolute url, ie domain + path
`url('contact')` will generate `http://example.org/contact`
The url() style is useful when using cross-domain ajax or generating emails, because the hostname won't be the same.
Take a look at the code https://github.com/symfony/symfony/blob/master/src/Symfony/Bridge/Twig/Extension/RoutingExtension.php for more information
Problem
The document said ``` {# src/Acme/ArticleBundle/Resources/views/Article/recentList.html.twig #} {% for article in articles %} <a href="{{ path('article_show', {'slug': article.slug}) }}"> {{ article.title }} </a> {% endfor %} ``` also, can use 'url' like this: ``` <a href="{{ url('_welcome') }}">Home</a> ``` it confused me what is the difference between using 'url' and 'path'?
