In a few of my controllers I have the config do some routing. For example the users controller, usually you would view a user like 'users/view/1' to see user #1, I dont like having the action 'view' in all of the urls so I routed it like this

'users/(:segment)' => 'users/view/$1'

This works fine, but then if I have a method defined like

public function action_list($page){
//do something
}

if there isn't a page specified in the URL ie users/list it will get routed to 'users/view/' which I don't want. Is there a way to set up the routing config to say like if there is a single integer after /users/ then go to /users/view/ otherwise ignore.

It's run through preg_replace, thus this should work as long as your ids are numeric:

'users/([0-9]+)' => 'users/view/$1'

Actually I jumped the gun there, this is routing to the correct method but its not passing the integer id.

This should work fine:

'users/(:num)' => 'users/view/$1'
'users' => 'users/list'

I don't think the first rule will match if there is no numeric parameter present.
