The ActiveModel::Serializer.type method now accepts symbol as paremeter:
class AuthorSerializer < ActiveModel::Serializer
type :profile
end
The test file for the type was also refactored.
Fix the "Calling deprecated ArraySerializer... Please use
CollectionSerializer" warning that appeared when running the specs. This
happened because on of the test called ArraySerializer instead of
CollectionSerializer.
When using the relationship link with a block, calling "meta" without "href", e.g.
has_one :bio do
link :related do
meta id: 1
end
end
results in in a nil "href", e.g.
{ links: { posts: { related: { href: nil, meta: { id: 1 } } } } }.
According to JSONAPI, we should be able to use meta without href
(http://jsonapi.org/format/#document-links).
When using the relationships DSL with a block e.g.
has_one :bio do
link :self, "some_link"
end
the "data" field would be rendered with a nil value even though the bio
is not nil. This happened because the block return value was set to nil
but used as a value for the "data" field.
PR #1454 was merged with some missing fixes. All these fixes are
addressed by this commit:
- Rename ActiveModel::Serializer::Adapter::JsonApi::Association to
ActiveModel::Serializer::Adapter::JsonApi::Relationship
- Move ActiveModel::Serializer::Adapter:: JsonApi::Relationship and
ActiveModel::Serializer::Adapter::JsonApi::ResourceIdentifier to
ActiveModel::Serializer::Adapter::JsonApi::ApiObjects module
- Add unit test for
ActiveModel::Serializer::Adapter::JsonApi::Relationship
- Add unit test for
ActiveModel::Serializer::Adapter::JsonApi::ResourceIdentifier
We were not previously cloning the type setting into the dynamically
generated cached/non-cached serializers for a given fragment-cached
serializer. This led to the type generated for JsonApi having the wrong
value when fragment caching is enabled by adding either :except or :only
options to cache.
This pulls the type setting from the fragment-cached serializer forward
onto the dynamic caching classes so it is preserved in the output.

fix failing tests
support for top-level links limited to jsonapi adapter
Move docs from README to docs/ dir
move links to json-api adapter & create Links class to hold links data
Also
- Add reference to config from ActiveModelSerializers.config
- correctly call super in FragmentCacheTest#setup
- rename test rails app from Foo to ActiveModelSerializers::RailsApplication
Breaking change:
- Adapters now inherit Adapter::Base
- 'Adapter' is now a module, no longer a class
Why?
- using a class as a namespace that you also inherit from is complicated and circular at time i.e.
buggy (see https://github.com/rails-api/active_model_serializers/pull/1177)
- The class methods on Adapter aren't necessarily related to the instance methods, they're more
Adapter functions
- named `Base` because it's a Rails-ism
- It helps to isolate and highlight what the Adapter interface actually is
Pagination links will be included in your response automatically as long
as the resource is paginated using Kaminari or WillPaginate
and if you are using a JSON-API adapter. The others adapters does not have this feature.
Comparing as a JSON string vs. as the Hash that is convert to JSON
works around the different Hash representations.
This likely has to do with the introduction of
config.action_dispatch.perform_deep_munge in Rails 4.1

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.)
When linked resource had has_many links, all of them would use the
association from the first resource, causing all of the items to build
`links` with the same associations.
This fixes it by iterating over the serializers, not just the
attributes array.
If type is `author` but the association is called `writer`, the linked
resource key should be called `authors`, e.g
{
...
linked: {
authors: [{
...
}]
}
...
}
