It's an upgrade based on the new Cache implementation #693.
It allows to use the Rails conventions to cache
specific attributes or associations.
It's based on the Cache Composition implementation.
It's a new implementation of cache based on ActiveSupport::Cache.
The implementation abstracts the cache in Adapter class on a
private method called cached_object, this method is intended
to be used on Adapters inside serializable_hash method in order
to cache each instance of the object that will be returned by
the serializer.
Some of its features are:
- A different syntax. (no longer need the cache_key method).
- An options argument that have the same arguments of ActiveSupport::Cache::Store, plus a key option that will be the prefix of the object cache on a pattern "#{key}-#{object.id}".
- It cache the objects individually and not the whole Serializer return, re-using it in different requests (as a show and a index method for example.)
Currently, 0.10.0.pre doesn't support `meta` option in `render`. This
way, there's no way to support features such as pagination. `0.9` had
this feature in place.
This adds support for it, as well as fixes small things in README.md.
This won't support `meta` in array responses because arrays don't have
keys, obviously. Also, the response should have a `root` key, otherwise
no `meta` will be included.
In some cases, for example using JsonApi, ArraySerializer will result in
a response with a `root`. In that case, `meta` will be included.
