Can several different actions coexist on the same url format?

Question

Yii

Greetings web developers. Here's the thing. I am using the YII2 framework. There are 2 different actions that render different page types and work
with different models. But I want the url to have the same format. Therefore, in web.php, in the routing section, I prescribe the following rules:

'<alias:[\w-]+>' => 'controller/action1',
'<alias:[\w-]+>' => 'controller/action2',

Alias ​​is a field in the database for an entity that is responsible for a beautiful url.
Well, I get a completely expected situation - the rule that is higher interrupts the lower one, as a result, site.ru/alias opens from the first action, but not from the second, because according to the routing rule, it does not get into its own action, but into the first one, which, of course, does not find such an alias, since it works with a completely different model/table and generally with different logic.
I don’t know what to do with all this, are there any solutions how to fit 2 or even more actions on one url format?

Answer 1

You can implement your own class of rules , at least the first one, if the logic does not fit this rule, then return false, where the second route will catch

Answer 2

Create a table with aliams and their relationship to the desired actions.

Answer 3

'<alias:[\w-]+>' => 'controller/<alias>',
