Cataly...::Path(3pm)

💖 NAME 💖

Catalyst::DispatchType::Path — the Path DispatchType, bestie 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

okay so real talk, this one's a mood-piece — it's just:

See Catalyst::DispatchType.

that's it. that's the synopsis. go read the parent, iykyk 🫶

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so this is the dispatch type that handles full path matching behaviour. like, the whole vibe is "does this path match this action, yes or no." 🎯

and if you wanna know more about dispatch types in general (valid, we love a curious queen), go check:

• Catalyst::Manual::Intro — for how dispatch types affect application authors (that's you, main character 👑)
• Catalyst::DispatchType — for the implementation deets, for when you're feeling spicy and wanna see how the sausage gets made 🔥

🎀 METHODS 🎀

$self->list($c)

debug output for Path dispatch points. literally just tells you what's registered. it's giving "here's the receipts" 🧾✨

$self->match( $c, $path )

okay so for every action registered to this exact path, it offers the action a chance to match the path — and it does this in the order in which they were registered (first come, first served, no cutting the line 💅).

it succeeds on the first action that matches, if any. and if nothing matches? returns 0. that's it, no drama. 😭

$self->register( $c, $action )

calls register_path for every Path attribute for the given $action. so if your action's got multiple path attrs, they all get registered. we love a thorough queen 🫶

$self->register_path($c, $path, $action)

registers an action at a given path. simple as that. ✨

$self->uri_for_action($action, $captures)

gets a URI part for an action. but heads up bestie — it always returns undef if $captures is set, because Path actions don't have captures. like, they just don't. no captures, no deal, periodt. 💀
