interface LocalActionManagerInterface implements PluginManagerInterface (View source)

Manages discovery and instantiation of menu local action plugins.

Menu local actions are links that lead to actions like "add new". The plugin format allows them (if needed) to dynamically generate a title or the path they link to. The annotation on the plugin provides the default title, and the list of routes where the action should be rendered.
