b2ddf6d7 13=head1 DESCRIPTION
14
43c58153 15This class represents a Catalyst Action. You can access the object for the
b2ddf6d7 16currently dispatched action via $c->action. See the L<Catalyst::Dispatcher>
17for more information on how actions are dispatched. Actions are defined in
18L<Catalyst::Controller> subclasses.

4ab87e27 362
fbcc39ad 363=head1 METHODS
364
b5ecfcf0 365=head2 attributes
fbcc39ad 366
4ab87e27 367The sub attributes that are set for this action, like Local, Path, Private
b2ddf6d7 368and so on. This determines how the action is dispatched to.
4ab87e27 369
b5ecfcf0 370=head2 class
b96f127f 371
4d38cb07 372Returns the name of the component where this action is defined.
f9818250 373Derived by calling the L<catalyst_component_name|Catalyst::Component/catalyst_component_name>
fb0c5b21 374method on each component.
4ab87e27 375
b5ecfcf0 376=head2 code
11bd4e3e 377
b2ddf6d7 378Returns a code reference to this action.
4ab87e27 379
b8f669f3 380=head2 dispatch( $c )
4ab87e27 381
18a9655c 382Dispatch this action against a context.
fbcc39ad 383
b8f669f3 384=head2 execute( $controller, $c, @args )
385
386Execute this action's coderef against a given controller with a given
387context and arguments
388
649fd1fa 389=head2 match( $c )
4ab87e27 390
649fd1fa 391Check Args attribute, and makes sure number of args matches the setting.
b2ddf6d7 392Always returns true if Args is omitted.
4082e678 393
760d121e 394=head2 match_captures ($c, $captures)
395
396Can be implemented by action class and action role authors. If the method
397exists, then it will be called with the request context and an array reference
398of the captures for this action.
399
400Returning true from this method causes the chain match to continue, returning
401makes the chain not match (and alternate, less preferred chains will be attempted).
402
6f0b85d2 403=head2 resolve_type_constraint
404
405Trys to find a type constraint if you have on on a type constrained method.
760d121e 406
91955398 407=head2 compare
408
cbe555e8 409Compares 2 actions based on the value of the C<Args> attribute, with no C<Args>
410having the highest precedence.
91955398 411
b5ecfcf0 412=head2 namespace
fbcc39ad 413
4ab87e27 414Returns the private namespace this action lives in.
415
b5ecfcf0 416=head2 reverse
6b239949 417
4ab87e27 418Returns the private path for this action.
419
009b5b23 420=head2 private_path
421
422Returns absolute private path for this action. Unlike C<reverse>, the
423C<private_path> of an action is always suitable for passing to C<forward>.
424
b5ecfcf0 425=head2 name
fbcc39ad 426
18a9655c 427Returns the sub name of this action.
4ab87e27 428
0cff119a 429=head2 number_of_args
430
d4e8996f 431Returns the number of args this action expects. This is 0 if the action doesn't
432take any arguments and undef if it will take any number of arguments.
433
434=head2 normalized_arg_number
435
436For the purposes of comparison we normalize 'number_of_args' so that if it is
437undef we mean ~0 (as many args are we can think of).
0cff119a 438
439=head2 number_of_captures
440
441Returns the number of captures this action expects for L<Chained|Catalyst::DispatchType::Chained> actions.
442
3c0da3ec 443=head2 list_extra_info
444
ffca3e96 445A HashRef of key-values that an action can provide to a debugging screen
3c0da3ec 446
342d2169 447=head2 scheme
448
449Any defined scheme for the action
