By convention CakePHP renders a view with an inflected version of the action name. Returning to our online bakery example, our RecipesController might contain the view(), share(), and search() actions. The controller would be found in /app/Controller/RecipesController.php and contain:

# /app/Controller/RecipesController.php

class RecipesController extends AppController {
    public function view($id) {
        //action logic goes here..
    }

    public function share($customerId, $recipeId) {
        //action logic goes here..
    }

    public function search($query) {
        //action logic goes here..
    }
}
