Detailed Description

This class represents a Cutelyst Action.

It encapsulates a Controller method that was defined with C_ATTR() macro, it’s usually automatically created by Controller using it’s introspection information. This class allows Cutelyst to call a Controller method.

You can access the object for the currently dispatched action via c->action(). See the Dispatcher for more information on how actions are dispatched.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Action() [1/2]

◆ ~Action()

virtual Cutelyst::Action::~Action ( )
overridevirtualdefault

Destroys the Action object.

References attribute(), attributes(), modifiers(), and Cutelyst::Component::name().

◆ Action() [2/2]

Action::Action ( ActionPrivate * ptr,
QObject * parent = nullptr )
explicitprotected

A derived class using pimpl should call this constructor, to reduce the number of memory allocations.

Definition at line 18 of file action.cpp.

References Cutelyst::Component::Component(), QObject::QObject(), and QObject::parent().

Member Function Documentation

◆ attribute()

QString Action::attribute ( const QString & name,
const QString & defaultValue = {} ) const
nodiscard

Returns the value attribute by it’s name, if not found defaultValue is returned.

Attributes can be defined using the C_ATTR macro on Controller’s method declaration.

◆ attributes()

ParamsMultiMap Action::attributes ( ) const
nodiscardnoexcept

◆ className()

QString Action::className ( ) const
nodiscardnoexcept

Returns the name of the component where this action is defined.

Definition at line 86 of file action.cpp.

References Action().

Referenced by Cutelyst::RenderView::RenderView().

◆ controller()

Controller * Action::controller ( ) const
nodiscardnoexcept

Returns the controller where this action is defined.

Definition at line 92 of file action.cpp.

References Action().

Referenced by Cutelyst::Dispatcher::dispatch(), and setController().

◆ dispatch()

bool Cutelyst::Action::dispatch ( Context * c)
inline

Dispatch this action against context c.

Definition at line 88 of file action.h.

References dispatch().

Referenced by Cutelyst::Controller::_DISPATCH(), dispatch(), Cutelyst::ActionChain::doExecute(), and Cutelyst::Dispatcher::forward().

◆ doExecute()

◆ match()

bool Action::match ( int numberOfArgs) const
nodiscardvirtualnoexcept

Check Args attribute, and makes sure number of args matches the setting. Always returns true if Args is omitted.

Definition at line 98 of file action.cpp.

References Action(), and numberOfArgs().

◆ matchCaptures()

bool Action::matchCaptures ( int numberOfCaptures) const
nodiscardvirtualnoexcept

Can be implemented by action class and action role authors. If the method exists, then it will be called with the request context and an array reference of the captures for this action.

Returning true from this method causes the chain match to continue, returning false makes the chain not match (and alternate, less preferred chains will be attempted).

Definition at line 108 of file action.cpp.

References Action(), and numberOfCaptures().

◆ modifiers()

Component::Modifiers Action::modifiers ( ) const
overridevirtual

Always returns Component::OnlyExecute.

Reimplemented from Cutelyst::Component.

Definition at line 23 of file action.cpp.

Referenced by ~Action().

◆ ns()

QString Action::ns ( ) const
nodiscardnoexcept

Returns the private namespace this action lives in.

Definition at line 118 of file action.cpp.

References Action().

◆ numberOfArgs()

qint8 Action::numberOfArgs ( ) const
nodiscardvirtual

Returns the number of args this action expects. This is 0 if the action doesn’t take any arguments and undef if it will take any number of arguments.

Definition at line 124 of file action.cpp.

References Action().

Referenced by Cutelyst::DispatchTypePath::list(), match(), and Cutelyst::DispatchTypePath::match().

◆ numberOfCaptures()

qint8 Action::numberOfCaptures ( ) const
nodiscardvirtual

Returns the number of captures this action expects for Chained actions.

Reimplemented in Cutelyst::ActionChain.
