52
234763d4 53 package MyApp::Controller::Search
a269e0c2 54 use base qw/Catalyst::Controller/;
234763d4 55

234763d4 59 } # Dispatches to /search/foo
5ee249f2 60
61=head1 DESCRIPTION
62
a269e0c2 63Controllers are where the actions in the Catalyst framework
64reside. Each action is represented by a function with an attribute to
65identify what kind of action it is. See the L<Catalyst::Dispatcher>
66for more info about how Catalyst dispatches to actions.

418=head1 CONFIGURATION
419
a269e0c2 420Like any other L<Catalyst::Component>, controllers have a config hash,
421accessible through $self->config from the controller actions. Some
422settings are in use by the Catalyst framework:
234763d4 423
424=head2 namespace
425
a269e0c2 426This specifies the internal namespace the controller should be bound
427to. By default the controller is bound to the URI version of the
428controller name. For instance controller 'MyApp::Controller::Foo::Bar'
429will be bound to 'foo/bar'. The default Root controller is an example
430of setting namespace to '' (the null string).
234763d4 431
27ae4114 432=head2 path
234763d4 433
434Sets 'path_prefix', as described below.
435
436=head1 METHODS
437
c4d02967 438=head2 BUILDARGS ($app, @args)
234763d4 439
c4d02967 440From L<Catalyst::Component::ApplicationAttribute>, stashes the application
441instance as $self->_application.
234763d4 442
443=head2 $self->action_for('name')
444
a269e0c2 445Returns the Catalyst::Action object (if any) for a given method name
446in this component.
234763d4 447
234763d4 448=head2 $self->action_namespace($c)
449
a269e0c2 450Returns the private namespace for actions in this component. Defaults
451to a value from the controller name (for
452e.g. MyApp::Controller::Foo::Bar becomes "foo/bar") or can be
453overridden from the "namespace" config key.
234763d4 454
455
456=head2 $self->path_prefix($c)
457
e5d2cfdb 458Returns the default path prefix for :PathPrefix, :Local, :LocalRegex and
459relative :Path actions in this component. Defaults to the action_namespace or
a269e0c2 460can be overridden from the "path" config key.
234763d4 461
c4d02967 462=head2 $self->register_actions($c)
463
464Finds all applicable actions for this component, creates
465Catalyst::Action objects (using $self->create_action) for them and
466registers them with $c->dispatcher.
467
468=head2 $self->get_action_methods()
469
470Returns a list of L<Moose::Meta::Method> objects, doing the
471L<MooseX::MethodAttributes::Role::Meta::Method> role, which are the set of
472action methods for this package.
473
474=head2 $self->register_action_methods($c, @methods)
475
476Creates action objects for a set of action methods using C< create_action >,
477and registers them with the dispatcher.
478
234763d4 479=head2 $self->create_action(%args)
480
a269e0c2 481Called with a hash of data to be use for construction of a new
482Catalyst::Action (or appropriate sub/alternative class) object.
234763d4 483
a269e0c2 484=head2 $self->_application
234763d4 485
486=head2 $self->_app
487
488Returns the application instance stored by C<new()>
