=head1 NAME

Catalyst::Action::Deserialize - Deserialize Data in a Request

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    package Foo::Controller::Bar;

    __PACKAGE__->config(
        serialize => {
            'default'   => 'YAML',
            'stash_key' => 'rest',
            'map'       => {
                'text/x-yaml'        => 'YAML',
                'text/x-data-dumper' => [ 'Data::Serializer', 'Data::Dumper' ],
            },
        }
    );

    sub begin :ActionClass('Deserialize') {}

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This action will deserialize HTTP POST, PUT, and OPTIONS requests.
It assumes that the body of the HTTP Request is a serialized object.
The serializer is selected by introspecting the requests content-type
header.

It requires that your Catalyst controller have a "serialize" entry
in it's configuration.  See L<Catalyst::Action::Serialize> for the details.

The specifics of deserializing each content-type is implemented as
a plugin to L<Catalyst::Action::Deserialize>.  You can see a list
of currently implemented plugins in L<Catalyst::Controller::REST>.

The results of your Deserializing will wind up in $c->req->data.
This is done through the magic of L<Catalyst::Request::REST>.

While it is common for this Action to be called globally as a
C<begin> method, there is nothing stopping you from using it on a
single routine:

   sub foo :Local :Action('Deserialize') {}

Will work just fine.

=head1 SEE ALSO

You likely want to look at L<Catalyst::Controller::REST>, which implements
a sensible set of defaults for a controller doing REST.
