Run controller/action in two ways

If the controller method name has the suffix Action(), you can run at the browser, by calling the controller-action on sending the GET parameters to your request:

/index.php?controller=blog&action=showentry

If the controller method name has the suffix CliAction(), you can easy run at the command line interface by executing the command:

php pimf blog:insert

Here you can see how they are defined at the blog-controller:

 class MyFirstBlog\Controller\Blog
 extends Pimf\Controller\Base
 {
   public function showentryAction()
   {
     // ...
   }

   public function insertCliAction()
   {
    // ...
   }
 }

Maybe you wonder about that - but that is the easiest way to make some possibility for scaffolding or manipulating data without implementing a backend interface. All methods at the controller who have the suffix Action() can be accessed only from the browser and methods who have the suffix CliAction() can be accessed only on the command line interface. If you want to send message to you interface than throw Pimf\Controller\Exception. This will be printed out at the view.
