A dispatcher filter that builds the controller to dispatch in the request.

This filter resolves the request parameters into a controller instance and attaches it to the event object.

Gets controller to use, either plugin or application controller.

Parameters

Cake\Network\Request $request
Request object
Cake\Network\Response $response
Response for the controller.

Returns

Cake\Controller\Controller|false
Object if loaded, boolean false otherwise.

beforeDispatch()source public

beforeDispatch( Cake\Event\Event $event )

Resolve the request parameters into a controller and attach the controller to the event object.

Parameters

Overrides

Cake\Routing\DispatcherFilter::beforeDispatch()

Methods inherited from Cake\Routing\DispatcherFilter

__construct()source public

__construct( array $config [] )

Constructor.

Parameters

array $config optional []
Settings for the filter.

Throws

InvalidArgumentException
When 'when' conditions are not callable.

afterDispatch()source public

afterDispatch( Cake\Event\Event $event )

Method called after the controller served a request and generated a response. It is possible to alter the response object at this point as it is not sent to the client yet.

If false is returned, the event will be stopped and no more listeners will be notified. Alternatively you can call $event->stopPropagation() to achieve the same result.

Parameters

Cake\Event\Event $event

container object having the request and response keys in the data property.

handle()source public

handle( Cake\Event\Event $event )

Handler method that applies conditions and resolves the correct method to call.

Parameters

Cake\Event\Event $event
The event instance.

Returns

mixed

implementedEvents()source public

implementedEvents( )

Returns the list of events this filter listens to. Dispatcher notifies 2 different events Dispatcher.before and Dispatcher.after. By default this class will attach preDispatch and postDispatch method respectively.

Override this method at will to only listen to the events you are interested in.

Returns

array

Implementation of

Cake\Event\EventListenerInterface::implementedEvents()

matches()source public

matches( Cake\Event\Event $event )

Check to see if the incoming request matches this filter's criteria.

Parameters

Cake\Event\Event $event
The event to match.

Returns

boolean

Throws

Cake\Core\Exception\Exception
if attempting to clobber existing config

_configRead()source protected

_configRead( string|null $key )

config()source public

config( string|array|null $key null , mixed|null $value null , boolean $merge true )

Usage

Reading the whole config:

$this->config();

Reading a specific value:

$this->config('key');

Reading a nested value:

$this->config('some.nested.key');

Setting a specific value:

$this->config('key', $value);

Setting a nested value:

$this->config('some.nested.key', $value);

Updating multiple config settings at the same time:

$this->config(['one' => 'value', 'another' => 'value']);

Parameters

string|array|null $key optional null
The key to get/set, or a complete array of configs.
mixed|null $value optional null
The value to set.
boolean $merge optional true
Whether to recursively merge or overwrite existing config, defaults to true.

Returns

mixed
Config value being read, or the object itself on write operations.

Throws

Cake\Core\Exception\Exception
When trying to set a key that is invalid.

configShallow()source public

configShallow( string|array $key , mixed|null $value null )

Merge provided config with existing config. Unlike config() which does a recursive merge for nested keys, this method does a simple merge.

Setting a specific value:

$this->config('key', $value);

Setting a nested value:

$this->config('some.nested.key', $value);

Updating multiple config settings at the same time:

$this->config(['one' => 'value', 'another' => 'value']);
