+=head1 NAME
+
+Catalyst::Action::Serialize - Serialize Data in a Response
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ package Foo::Controller::Bar;
+
+ __PACKAGE__->config(
+ serialize => {
+ 'default' => 'text/x-yaml',
+ 'stash_key' => 'rest',
+ 'map' => {
+ 'text/html' => [ 'View', 'TT', ],
+ 'text/x-yaml' => 'YAML',
+ 'text/x-data-dumper' => [ 'Data::Serializer', 'Data::Dumper' ],
+ },
+ }
+ );
+
+ sub end :ActionClass('Serialize') {}
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This action will serialize the body of an HTTP Response. The serializer is
+selected by introspecting the HTTP Requests content-type header.
+
+It requires that your Catalyst controller have a "serialize" entry
+in it's configuration, which sets up the mapping between Content Type's
+and Serialization classes.
+
+The specifics of serializing each content-type is implemented as
+a plugin to L<Catalyst::Action::Serialize>.
+
+Typically, you would use this ActionClass on your C<end> method. However,
+nothing is stopping you from choosing specific methods to Serialize:
+
+ sub foo :Local :ActionClass('Serialize') {
+ .. populate stash with data ..
+ }
+
+When you use this module, the request class will be changed to
+L<Catalyst::Request::REST>.
+
+=head1 CONFIGURATION
+
+=over 4
+
+=item default
+
+The Content-Type of the default Serialization format. This must be a
+Content-Type associated with a plugin in the "map" section below.
+
+This is used if a requested content-type is not recognized.
+
+=item stash_key
+
+We will serialize the data that lives in this location in the stash. So
+if the value is "rest", we will serialize the data under:
+
+ $c->stash->{'rest'}
+
+=item map
+
+Takes a hashref, mapping Content-Types to a given plugin.
+

+
+=head1 HELPFUL PEOPLE
+
+Daisuke Maki pointed out that early versions of this Action did not play
+well with others, or generally behave in a way that was very consistent
+with the rest of Catalyst.
+
+=head1 SEE ALSO
+
+You likely want to look at L<Catalyst::Controller::REST>, which implements
+a sensible set of defaults for doing a REST controller.
