Add events for before/after a action of a controll

问题:

I have a controller in Magento as below:

#File: ./app/local/FilFact/Test/IndexController
class FilFact_Test_IndexController extends Mage_Core_Controller_Front_Action{
    public function indexAction(){
        $this->_testConfig();
    }
}

I need to add two events for:
before index action
after index action

How could I do that?

回答1:

This is simple as the Mage_Core_Controller_Varien_Action base class provides pre/post dispatch events.

If you open up the Mage_Core_Controller_Varien_Action class you find two methods: preDispatch() and postDispatch()

These method perform a few tasks and most importantly fire off three events.

controller_action_(pre|post)dispatch
controller_action_(pre|post)dispatch_{{routeName}}
controller_action_(pre|post)dispatch_{{fullActionName}}

The fullActionName is the route name, the controller name, and the action name separated by '_' and all lower case. (See Mage_Core_Controller_Varien_Action::getFullActionName for reference)
