DESCRIPTION

NOTE This class used to be a Controller subclass. It is Role as of version 0.300.

Search::OpenSearch::Server::Catalyst is a consumable Role used by CatalystX::Controller::OpenSearch. If you just want a simple controller, you probably want CatalystX::Controller::OpenSearch.

METHODS

This class isa MooseX::MethodAttributes::Role. Only new or overridden methods are documented here.

default( ctx )

This method registers a URL action in the controller namespace.

The default() action passes the ctx and any other path args to process_request(). Override this method to control what your addressable URL(s) look like.

process_request( ctx, args )

Process the incoming request and create a response. The algorithm is, briefly:


            

              
              
GET -> do_search()
POST, PUT, DELETE -> do_rest_api()

args is an array joined with / to create an actionable path. If that path is the string search or is empty, then do_search() is triggered on GET requests. The path is ignored for all non-GET requests.

log( msg, level )

Passes msg on to the app $ctx->log method. level defaults to debug and will only be passed to $ctx->log if $ctx->debug is true.
