/**
 * @classdesc
 * Interface representing an Action in AdminBro.
 * Look at {@tutorial actions} to see where you can use this interface.
 *
 * #### Example Action
 *
 * ```
 * const action = {
 *   actionType: 'record',
 *   icon: 'View',
 *   isVisible: true,
 *   handler: async () => {...},
 *   component: AdminBro.bundle('./my-action-component'),
 * }
 * ```
 *
 * There are 3 kinds of actions:
 *
 * 1. Resource action, which is performed for an entire resource.
 * 2. Record action, invoked for an record in a resource
 * 3. Bulk action, invoked for an set of records in a resource
 *
 * ...and there are 7 actions predefined in AdminBro
 *
 * 1. {@link module:NewAction new} (resource action) - create new records in a resource
 * 2. {@link module:ListAction list} (resource action) - list all records within a resource
 * 3. {@link module:SearchAction search} (resource action) - search by query string
 * 4. {@link module:EditAction edit} (record action) - update records in a resource
 * 5. {@link module:ShowAction show} (record action) - show details of given record
 * 6. {@link module:DeleteAction delete} (record action) - delete given record
 * 7. {@link module:BulkDeleteAction bulkDelete} (bulk action) - delete given records
 *
 * Users can also create their own actions or override those already existing by using
 * {@link ResourceOptions}
 *
 * ```javascript
 * const AdminBroOptions = {
 *   resources: [{
 *     resource: User,
 *     options: {
 *       actions: {
 *         // example of overriding existing 'new' action for
 *         // User resource.
 *         new: {
 *           icon: 'Add'
 *         },
 *         // Example of creating a new 'myNewAction' which will be
 *         // a resource action available for User model
 *         myNewAction: {
 *           actionType: 'resource',
 *           handler: async (request, response, context) => {...}
 *         }
 *       }
 *     }
 *   }]
 * }
 *
 * const { ACTIONS } = require('admin-bro')
 * // example of adding after filter for 'show' action for all resources
 * ACTIONS.show.after = async () => {...}
 * ```

   * indicates if action should be visible for given invocation context.
   * It also can be a simple boolean value.
   * `True` by default.
   * The most common example of usage is to hide resources from the UI.
   * So let say we have 2 resources __User__ and __Cars__:
   *
   * ```javascript
   * const User = mongoose.model('User', mongoose.Schema({
   *   email: String,
   *   encryptedPassword: String,

   * })
   * ```
   *
   * so if we want to hide Users collection, but allow people to pick user when
   * creating cars. We can do this like this:
   *
   * ```javascript
   * new AdminBro({ resources: [{
   *   resource: User,
   *   options: { actions: { list: { isVisible: false } } }
   * }]})
   * ```
   * In contrast - when we use {@link Action#isAccessible} instead - user wont be able to

   * @see {@link IsFunction}      exact type of the function

   *
   * ```javascript
