=head1 NAME

Catalyst::Controller - Catalyst Controller base class

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  package MyApp::Controller::Search
  use base qw/Catalyst::Controller/;

  sub foo : Local {
    my ($self,$c,@args) = @_;
    ...
  } # Dispatches to /search/foo

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Controllers are where the actions in the Catalyst framework
reside. Each action is represented by a function with an attribute to
identify what kind of action it is. See the L<Catalyst::Dispatcher>
for more info about how Catalyst dispatches to actions.

=head1 CONFIGURATION

Like any other L<Catalyst::Component>, controllers have a config hash,
accessible through $self->config from the controller actions.  Some
settings are in use by the Catalyst framework:

=head2 namespace

This specifies the internal namespace the controller should be bound
to. By default the controller is bound to the URI version of the
controller name. For instance controller 'MyApp::Controller::Foo::Bar'
will be bound to 'foo/bar'. The default Root controller is an example
of setting namespace to '' (the null string).

=head2 path

Sets 'path_prefix', as described below.

=head2 action

Allows you to set the attributes that the dispatcher creates actions out of.
This allows you to do 'rails style routes', or override some of the
attribute defintions of actions composed from Roles.
You can set arguments globally (for all actions of the controller) and
specifically (for a single action).

    __PACKAGE__->config(
        action => {
            '*' => { Chained => 'base', Args => 0  },
            base => { Chained => '/', PathPart => '', CaptureArgs => 0 },
        },
     );

In the case above every sub in the package would be made into a Chain
endpoint with a URI the same as the sub name for each sub, chained
to the sub named C<base>. Ergo dispatch to C</example> would call the
C<base> method, then the C<example> method.

=head2 action_args

Allows you to set constructor arguments on your actions. You can set arguments
globally and specifically (as above).
This is particularly useful when using C<ActionRole>s
(L<Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole>) and custom C<ActionClass>es.

    __PACKAGE__->config(
        action_args => {
            '*' => { globalarg1 => 'hello', globalarg2 => 'goodbye' },
            'specific_action' => { customarg => 'arg1' },
        },
     );

In the case above the action class associated with C<specific_action> would get
passed the following arguments, in addition to the normal action constructor
arguments, when it is instantiated:

  (globalarg1 => 'hello', globalarg2 => 'goodbye', customarg => 'arg1')

=head1 METHODS

=head2 BUILDARGS ($app, @args)

From L<Catalyst::Component::ApplicationAttribute>, stashes the application
instance as $self->_application.

=head2 $self->action_for('name')

Returns the Catalyst::Action object (if any) for a given method name
in this component.

=head2 $self->action_namespace($c)

Returns the private namespace for actions in this component. Defaults
to a value from the controller name (for
e.g. MyApp::Controller::Foo::Bar becomes "foo/bar") or can be
overridden from the "namespace" config key.


=head2 $self->path_prefix($c)

Returns the default path prefix for :PathPrefix, :Local, :LocalRegex and
relative :Path actions in this component. Defaults to the action_namespace or
can be overridden from the "path" config key.

=head2 $self->register_actions($c)

Finds all applicable actions for this component, creates
Catalyst::Action objects (using $self->create_action) for them and
registers them with $c->dispatcher.

=head2 $self->get_action_methods()

Returns a list of L<Moose::Meta::Method> objects, doing the
L<MooseX::MethodAttributes::Role::Meta::Method> role, which are the set of
action methods for this package.

=head2 $self->register_action_methods($c, @methods)

Creates action objects for a set of action methods using C< create_action >,
and registers them with the dispatcher.

=head2 $self->create_action(%args)

Called with a hash of data to be use for construction of a new
Catalyst::Action (or appropriate sub/alternative class) object.

=head2 $self->_application

=head2 $self->_app

Returns the application instance stored by C<new()>
