NAME
Catalyst::Dispatcher - The Catalyst Dispatcher
SYNOPSIS
See Catalyst.
DESCRIPTION
This is the class that maps public urls to actions in your Catalyst application based on the attributes you set.
METHODS
new
Construct a new dispatcher.
$self->preload_dispatch_types
An arrayref of pre-loaded dispatchtype classes
Entries are considered to be available as Catalyst::DispatchType::CLASS To use a custom class outside the regular Catalyst namespace, prefix it with a +, like so:
+My::Dispatch::Type$self->postload_dispatch_types
An arrayref of post-loaded dispatchtype classes
Entries are considered to be available as Catalyst::DispatchType::CLASS To use a custom class outside the regular Catalyst namespace, prefix it with a +, like so:
+My::Dispatch::Type$self->detach( $c, $command [, \@arguments ] )
Documented in Catalyst
$self->dispatch($c)
Delegate the dispatch to the action that matched the url, or return a message about unknown resource
$self->forward( $c, $command [, \@arguments ] )
Documented in Catalyst
$self->prepare_action($c)
Find an dispatch type that matches $c->req->path, and set args from it.
$self->get_action( $action, $namespace )
returns a named action from a given namespace.
$self->get_action_by_path( $path );
Returns the named action by its full path.
$self->get_actions( $c, $action, $namespace )
$self->get_containers( $namespace )
Return all the action containers for a given namespace, inclusive
$self->uri_for_action($action, \@captures)
Takes a Catalyst::Action object and action parameters and returns a URI part such that if $c->req->path were this URI part, this action would be dispatched to with $c->req->captures set to the supplied arrayref.
If the action object is not available for external dispatch or the dispatcher cannot determine an appropriate URI, this method will return undef.
$self->register( $c, $action )
Make sure all required dispatch types for this action are loaded, then pass the action to our dispatch types so they can register it if required. Also, set up the tree with the action containers.
$self->setup_actions( $class, $context )
