Get all URL used by routes in Symfony 2

I'm working on a website using Symfony 2 in which each user will have a profile page reachable at domain.com/username (like many social websites offer).

To achieve this I need to check if the wanted URL is available when a user wants to pick one. I would like to know if there is a way in Symfony to get all URL used by routes defined in routing configuration to automatically forbid those routes as usernames.

Thank you

Now I know that I have system routers starting with application_frontend and application_backend.

app/config/routing.yml

application_frontend:
    resource: "@ApplicationFrontendBundle/Controller"
    prefix:   /
    type:     annotation

application_backend:
    resource: "@ApplicationBackendBundle/Controller"
    prefix:   /backend
    type:     annotation

I'm using my controllers as services but you don't have to.

controller.yml

services:
    application_frontend.controller.profile:
        class: Application\FrontendBundle\Controller\ProfileController
        arguments:
            - @router
            - @doctrine_common_inflector

    doctrine_common_inflector:
        class: Doctrine\Common\Inflector\Inflector

You should refactor explode bit and do some cleaning such as remove action from the route names. I left it little dirty for you to see what exactly I'm doing there. Based on your application, this code might change. It just gives you an idea how it can be done.

ProfileController

use Doctrine\Common\Inflector\Inflector;
use Symfony\Component\Routing\RouterInterface;
# .......

/**
 * @Route("profile", service="application_frontend.controller.profile")
 */
class ProfileController extends Controller
{
    private $router;
    private $inflector;

    public function __construct(
        RouterInterface $router,
        Inflector $inflector
    ) {
        $this->router = $router;
        $this->inflector = $inflector;
    }

    /**
     * @Method({"GET"})
     * @Route("/step_one")
     */
    public function stepOneAction()
    {
        $list = [];
        $myRoutes = ['application_frontend', 'application_backend'];
        $routeCollection = $this->router->getRouteCollection();

        foreach ($routeCollection->all() as $key => $value)
        {
            $data = $value->getDefaults();

            if (isset($data['_controller'])) {
                foreach ($myRoutes as $routePrefix) {
                    if (strstr($data['_controller'], $routePrefix) !== false) {
                        $routeParts = explode(':', $data['_controller']);
                        $routeParts2 = explode('.', $routeParts[0]);

                        $list[] = end($routeParts2). '/' . $this->inflector->tableize(end($routeParts));
                    }
                }
            }
        }


        echo '<pre>';
        print_r($list);
        exit;
    }
}

You can compare list against app/console debug:router command.

Result

Array
(
    [0] => country/index_action
    [1] => country/list_action
    [2] => default/index_action
    [3] => default/list_action
    [4] => profile/step_one_action
    [5] => profile/step_two_action
    [6] => profile/step_one_process_action
    [7] => profile/step_two_process_action
    [8] => security/index_action
    [9] => security/login_action
    [10] => security/logout_action
    [11] => api/json_action
    [12] => api/xml_action
    [13] => api/json_xml_action
    [14] => default/index_action
    [15] => default/list_action
    [16] => default/secret_action
    [17] => superadmin/index_action
    [18] => superadmin/list_action
    [19] => twitter/list_action
    [20] => twitter/create_tweet_action
    [21] => user/list_action
    [22] => user/create_action
