NAME

Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole - Apply roles to action instances

SYNOPSIS

     package MyApp::Controller::Foo;
 
     use Moose;
     use namespace::autoclean;
 
     BEGIN { extends 'Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole' }
 
     sub bar : Local Does('Moo') { ... }
 
 

DESCRIPTION

This module allows to apply Moose::Roles to the "Catalyst::Action"s for different controller methods.

For that a "Does" attribute is provided. That attribute takes an argument, that determines the role, which is going to be applied. If that argument is prefixed with "+", it is assumed to be the full name of the role. If it's prefixed with "~", the name of your application followed by "::ActionRole::" is prepended. If it isn't prefixed with "+" or "~", the role name will be searched for in @INC according to the rules for role prefix searching.

It's possible to to apply roles to all actions of a controller without specifying the "Does" keyword in every action definition:

     package MyApp::Controller::Bar
 
     use Moose;
     use namespace::autoclean;
 
     BEGIN { extends 'Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole' }
 
     __PACKAGE__->config(
         action_roles => ['Foo', '~Bar'],
     );
 
     # Has Catalyst::ActionRole::Foo and MyApp::ActionRole::Bar applied.
     #
     # If MyApp::ActionRole::Foo exists and is loadable, it will take
     # precedence over Catalyst::ActionRole::Foo.
     #
     # If MyApp::ActionRole::Bar exists and is loadable, it will be loaded,
     # but even if it doesn't exist Catalyst::ActionRole::Bar will not be loaded.
     sub moo : Local { ... }
 
 

Additionally, roles can be applied to selected actions without specifying "Does" using ``action'' in Catalyst::Controller and configured with ``action_args'' in Catalyst::Controller:

     package MyApp::Controller::Baz;
 
     use Moose;
     use namespace::autoclean;
 
     BEGIN { extends 'Catalyst::Controller::ActionRole' }
 
     __PACKAGE__->config(
         action_roles => [qw( Foo )],
         action       => {
             some_action    => { Does => [qw( ~Bar )] },
             another_action => { Does => [qw( +MyActionRole::Baz )] },
         },
         action_args  => {
             another_action => { customarg => 'arg1' },
         }
     );
 
     # has Catalyst::ActionRole::Foo and MyApp::ActionRole::Bar applied
     sub some_action : Local { ... }
 
     # has Catalyst::ActionRole::Foo and MyActionRole::Baz applied
     # and associated action class would get additional arguments passed
     sub another_action : Local { ... }
 
 

ATTRIBUTES

_action_role_prefix

This class attribute stores an array reference of role prefixes to search for role names in if they aren't prefixed with "+" or "~". It defaults to "[ 'Catalyst::ActionRole::' ]". See ``role prefix searching''.

_action_roles

This attribute stores an array reference of role names that will be applied to every action of this controller. It can be set by passing a "action_roles" argument to the constructor. The same expansions as for "Does" will be performed.

METHODS

gather_action_roles(\%action_args)

Gathers the list of roles to apply to an action with the given %action_args.

ROLE PREFIX SEARCHING

Roles specified with no prefix are looked up under a set of role prefixes. The first prefix is always "MyApp::ActionRole::" (with "MyApp" replaced as appropriate for your application); the following prefixes are taken from the "_action_role_prefix" attribute.
