Dispatching is the process of taking the request object, extracting the module name, controller name, action name, and optional parameters contained in it, and then instantiating a controller and calling an action of that controller.

$di = new \Phalcon\Di();

$dispatcher = new \Phalcon\Mvc\Dispatcher();

  $dispatcher->setDI($di);

$dispatcher->setControllerName('posts');
$dispatcher->setActionName('index');
$dispatcher->setParams(array());

$controller = $dispatcher->dispatch();
