Wildcard for routes

Question

How can I pass the complete path arguments to a route defined in a mymodule.routing.yml file?

example_archive.content_archiv:
  path: '/examplearchiv/{myvalue}'
  defaults:
  _controller: '\Drupal\example_archiv\Controller\exampleArchiveController::content_archiv'
   _title: 'example Archive'
requirements:
    _access: 'TRUE'
    myvalue: .+

For example:

• /examplearchiv/testvalue gives $myvalue = 'testvalue' to the controller

• /examplearchiv/testvalue/value1 causes a "page not found" error

• /examplearchiv/testvalue/value1/value2 causes a "page not found" error

According to http://symfony.com/doc/current/routing/slash_in_parameter.html myvalue: .+ should also return slashes for {myvalue}; $myvalue should be 'testvalue/test1'.

Drupal 8 doesn't support this natively. You can add a simple class in a custom module that implements the InboundPathProcessorInterface that will allow this.
