All Known Implementing Classes:

ApiControllerMethodAction
```
public interface ApiControllerAction
```
The core of the framework. ApiServlet and ApiHandler finds an action to perform based on matches(org.actioncontroller.ApiControllerAction) and invoke(org.actioncontroller.UserContext, org.actioncontroller.ApiHttpExchange) this action.

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`Method`	`getAction()`	Returns the method that implements this action
`Object`	`getController()`	Returns the controller that this action belongs to
`String`	`getHttpMethod()`	Returns the request HTTP Method used to match this action
`String`	`getMethodName()`
`Pattern[]`	`getParamRegexp()`	Returns an sparse array with the element of the path specification that are parameterized
`String`	`getPattern()`	Returns the request URL pattern used to match this action
`String[]`	`getPatternParts()`	Returns an array with each element of the path specification
`void`	`invoke(UserContext userContext, ApiHttpExchange exchange)`	Invokes this action on the given `ApiHttpExchange` by converting the exchange to method invocation arguments, invoking the method and converting the return value.
`boolean`	`matches(ApiControllerAction action)`	Returns true if the actions respond to the same routes
`boolean`	`matchesRequiredParameters(ApiHttpExchange exchange)`	Returns true if the exchange has all the required query parameters specified in this action, or if there are no required query parameters in the action
`boolean`	`requiresParameter()`	Returns true if the action requires a request parameter, such as `@Get("/test?error")`.

- Method Detail
  - getPatternParts
```
String[] getPatternParts()
```
    Returns an array with each element of the path specification
  - getParamRegexp
```
Pattern[] getParamRegexp()
```
    Returns an sparse array with the element of the path specification that are parameterized
  - invoke
```
void invoke(UserContext userContext,
            ApiHttpExchange exchange)
     throws IOException
```
    Invokes this action on the given ApiHttpExchange by converting the exchange to method invocation arguments, invoking the method and converting the return value.
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException
  - getController
```
Object getController()
```
    Returns the controller that this action belongs to
  - getAction
```
Method getAction()
```
    Returns the method that implements this action
  - getPattern
```
String getPattern()
```
    Returns the request URL pattern used to match this action
  - getHttpMethod
```
String getHttpMethod()
```
    Returns the request HTTP Method used to match this action
  - matchesRequiredParameters
```
boolean matchesRequiredParameters(ApiHttpExchange exchange)
```
    Returns true if the exchange has all the required query parameters specified in this action, or if there are no required query parameters in the action
  - requiresParameter
```
boolean requiresParameter()
```
    Returns true if the action requires a request parameter, such as @Get("/test?error"). When more than one action returns true from matches(org.actioncontroller.ApiControllerAction) and exactly one action returns true from requiresParameter, that action is invokes. Otherwise action-controller throws an exception
  - matches
```
boolean matches(ApiControllerAction action)
```
    Returns true if the actions respond to the same routes
  - getMethodName
```
String getMethodName()
```
