Class ControllerFactoryFilter
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.

- $_config protected
array
Runtime config
- $_configInitialized protected
bool
Whether the config property has already been configured with defaults
- $_defaultConfig protected
array
Default config
- $_priority protected
int
Priority is set high to allow other filters to be called first.
Method Summary
- afterDispatch() public
Method called after the controller served a request and generated a response.
- beforeDispatch() public
Resolve the request parameters into a controller and attach the controller to the event object.
- configShallow() public

config()
which does a recursive merge for nested keys, this method does a simple merge.
Method Detail
__construct() public
__construct(mixed $config)
Constructor.
Parameters

array
$config optional Settings for the filter.
Throws
InvalidArgumentException
When 'when' conditions are not callable.
_configDelete() protected
_configDelete(mixed $key)

_configRead() protected
_configRead(mixed $key)
Reads a config key.
Parameters
-
string|null
$key Key to read.
Returns
mixed
_configWrite() protected
_configWrite(mixed $key, mixed $value, mixed $merge)
Writes a config key.
Parameters
-
string|array
$key Key to write to.
-
mixed

-
bool|string
$merge optional True to merge recursively, 'shallow' for simple merge, false to overwrite, defaults to false.

afterDispatch() public
afterDispatch(\Cake\Event\Event $event)
Method called after the controller served a request and generated a response.

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.

$event container object having the
request
andresponse
