Controller( $catalyst, @pathArguments )

This method handles a request.

controller_dispatch( @args )

controller_dispatch performs the standard RapidApp dispatch processing for a Module.

• If the first argument names an action, the action is executed.

• If the first argument names a sub-module, the processing is passed to the sub-module.

• If the first argument does not match anything, then the default action is called, if specified, otherwise a 404 is returned to the user.

• If there are no arguments, and the client was not requesting JSON, the viewport is executed.

• Else, content is called, and its return value is passed to render_data.

process_action( $actionName, [optional @args] )

This routine handles the execution of a selected action. The action must exist. For actions that map to coderefs, the coderef is executed. For actions that map to strings, a method of that name is called on $self.

render_data( $data )

This is a very DWIM sort of routine that takes its parameter (likely the return value of content or an action) and picks an appropriate view for it, possibly ignoring it altogether.

• If the action generated a body, no view is needed, and the parameter is ignored.

• If the action chose its own view, no further processing is done, and the parameter is returned.

• If the controller is configured to render json (the default) and the parameter isn't blacklisted in no_json_ref_types, and the parameter isn't a plain string, the RapidApp::JSON view is chosen. The parameter is returned (as-is) to get passed back to TopController who passes it to the view.

• Else, the data is treated as an explicit string for the body. The body is assigned, and returned.
