=head1 NAME

Reaction::UI::Controller

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Base Reaction Controller class. Inherits from:

=over 4

=item L<Catalyst::Controller>
=item L<Catalyst::Component::ACCEPT_CONTEXT>
=item L<Reaction::Object>

=back

=head1 METHODS

=head2 push_viewport $vp_class, %args

Creates a new instance of the L<Reaction::UI::ViewPort> class
($vp_class) using the rest of the arguments given (%args). Defaults of
the action can be overridden by using the C<ViewPort> key in the
controller configuration. For example to override the default number
of items in a CRUD list action:

__PACKAGE__->config(
                    action => { 
                        list => { ViewPort => { per_page => 50 } },
    }
  );

The ViewPort is added to the L<Reaction::UI::Window>'s FocusStack in
the stash, and also returned to the calling code.

=head2 pop_viewport

=head2 pop_viewport_to $vp

Call L<Reaction::UI::FocusStack/pop_viewport> or
L<Reaction::UI::FocusStack/pop_viewport_to> on 
the C<< $c->stash->{focus_stack} >>.

=head2 redirect_to $c, $to, $captures, $args, $attrs

Construct a URI and redirect to it.

$to can be:

=over

=item The name of an action in the current controller.

=item A L<Catalyst::Action> instance.

=item An arrayref of controller name and the name of an action in that
controller.

=back

$captures and $args default to the current requests $captures and
$args if not supplied.
