+/**
+ * VerbFilter is an action filter that filters by HTTP request methods.
+ *
+ * It allows to define allowed HTTP request methods for each action and will throw
+ * an HTTP 405 error when the method is not allowed.
+ *
+ * To use VerbFilter, declare it in the `behaviors()` method of your controller class.
+ * For example, the following declarations will define a typical set of allowed
+ * request methods for REST CRUD actions.
+ *
+ * ~~~
+ * public function behaviors()
+ * {
+ *     return array(
+ *         'verbs' => array(
+ *             'class' => \yii\web\VerbFilter::className(),
+ *             'actions' => array(
+ *                 'index'  => array('get'),
+ *                 'view'   => array('get'),
+ *                 'create' => array('get', 'post'),
+ *                 'update' => array('get', 'put', 'post'),
+ *                 'delete' => array('post', 'delete'),
+ *             ),
