Property Details

$checkAccess public property

A PHP callable that will be called when running an action to determine if the current user has the permission to execute the action. If not set, the access check will not be performed. The signature of the callable should be as follows,

function ($action, $model = null) {
    // $model is the requested model instance.
    // If null, it means no specific model (e.g. IndexAction)
}

public callable $checkAccess = null

$findModel public property

A PHP callable that will be called to return the model corresponding to the specified primary key value. If not set, findModel() will be used instead. The signature of the callable should be:

function ($id, $action) {
    // $id is the primary key value. If composite primary key, the key values
    // will be separated by comma.
    // $action is the action object currently running
}

The callable should return the model found, or throw an exception if not found.

public callable $findModel = null

$modelClass public property

Class name of the model which will be handled by this action. The model class must implement yii\db\ActiveRecordInterface. This property must be set.

public string $modelClass = null
