69 Reaction::UI::ViewPort::Role::Actions
73 A role to ease attaching actions to L<Reaction::InterfaceModel::Object>s
79 Read-only, lazy-building ArrayRef of URI objects pointing to actions.
81 =head2 action_prototypes
83 A HashRef of prototypes for building the Action links. The prototypes should be
86 my %action_prototypes = (
87 example_action => { label => 'Example Action', uri => $uri_obj },
90 #or you can get fancy and do something like what is below:
92 my($im, $ctx) = @_; #InterfaceModel::Object/Collection, Catalyst Context
96 my($im, $ctx) = @_; #InterfaceModel::Object/Collection, Catalyst Context
97 return return $ctx->uri_for('some_action');
99 my %action_prototypes = (
100 example_action => { label => \&make_label, uri => \&make_uri },
105 User-provided ArrayRef with how the actions should be ordered eg
107 action_order => [qw/view edit delete/]
109 =head2 computed_action_order
111 Read-only lazy-building ARRAY ref. The final computed action order. This may
112 differ from the C<action_order> provided if you any actions were not included
117 =head2 _build_actions
119 Cycle through the C<computed_action_order> and create a new
120 L<ViewPort::URI|Reaction::UI::ViewPort::URI> object for each action using the
123 =head2 _build_computed_action_order
125 Compute the final action ordering by using the provided C<action_order> as a
126 spec to order all the present actions (the keys of C<action_prototypes>)
128 =head1 ACTION PROTOTYPES
130 Action prototypes are simply hashrefs that must contain a C<uri> key and may
131 contain a C<label> key. The label can be anything that the display attribute of
132 L<ViewPort::URI|Reaction::UI::ViewPort::URI> will accept, usually a scalar or a
133 ViewPort. The value for C<uri> may be either a scalar, a L<URI> object (or
134 anything that C<ISA URI>).
136 Additionally, both C<label> and C<uri> can be CODE refs. In this case, the code
137 will be executed at C<_build_actions> time and will recieve two arguments, the
138 value returned by C<model> and the value returned by C<ctx> in that order. Both
139 of these methods should be implemented in the consuming class. By convention,
140 model refers to the target of the action, an C<InterfaceModel::Object> in the
141 case of a member action and an C<InterfaceModel::Collection> in the case of a
142 Collection action. C<ctx> should be the current Catalyst context.
