module ActiveModel
  # == Active \Model \Serialization
  #
  # Provides a basic serialization to a serializable_hash for your objects.
  #
  # A minimal implementation could be:
  #
  #   class Person
  #     include ActiveModel::Serialization
  #
  #     attr_accessor :name
  #
  #     def attributes
  #       {'name' => nil}
  #     end
  #   end
  #
  # Which would provide you with:
  #
  #   person = Person.new
  #   person.serializable_hash   # => {"name"=>nil}
  #   person.name = "Bob"
  #   person.serializable_hash   # => {"name"=>"Bob"}
  #
  # An +attributes+ hash must be defined and should contain any attributes you
  # need to be serialized. Attributes must be strings, not symbols.
  # When called, serializable hash will use instance methods that match the name
  # of the attributes hash's keys. In order to override this behavior, take a look
  # at the private method +read_attribute_for_serialization+.
  #
  # ActiveModel::Serializers::JSON module automatically includes
  # the <tt>ActiveModel::Serialization</tt> module, so there is no need to
  # explicitly include <tt>ActiveModel::Serialization</tt>.
  #
  # A minimal implementation including JSON would be:
  #
  #   class Person
  #     include ActiveModel::Serializers::JSON
  #
  #     attr_accessor :name
  #
  #     def attributes
  #       {'name' => nil}
  #     end
  #   end
  #
  # Which would provide you with:
  #
  #   person = Person.new
  #   person.serializable_hash   # => {"name"=>nil}
  #   person.as_json             # => {"name"=>nil}
  #   person.to_json             # => "{\"name\":null}"
  #
  #   person.name = "Bob"
  #   person.serializable_hash   # => {"name"=>"Bob"}
  #   person.as_json             # => {"name"=>"Bob"}
  #   person.to_json             # => "{\"name\":\"Bob\"}"
  #
  # Valid options are <tt>:only</tt>, <tt>:except</tt>, <tt>:methods</tt> and
  # <tt>:include</tt>. The following are all valid examples:
  #
  #   person.serializable_hash(only: 'name')
  #   person.serializable_hash(include: :address)
  #   person.serializable_hash(include: { address: { only: 'city' }})
  module Serialization
    # Returns a serialized hash of your object.
    #
    #   class Person
    #     include ActiveModel::Serialization
    #
    #     attr_accessor :name, :age
    #
    #     def attributes
    #       {'name' => nil, 'age' => nil}
    #     end
    #
    #     def capitalized_name
    #       name.capitalize
    #     end
    #   end
    #
    #   person = Person.new
    #   person.name = 'bob'
    #   person.age  = 22
    #   person.serializable_hash                # => {"name"=>"bob", "age"=>22}
    #   person.serializable_hash(only: :name)   # => {"name"=>"bob"}
    #   person.serializable_hash(except: :name) # => {"age"=>22}
    #   person.serializable_hash(methods: :capitalized_name)
    #   # => {"name"=>"bob", "age"=>22, "capitalized_name"=>"Bob"}
    #
    # Example with <tt>:include</tt> option
    #
    #   class User
    #     include ActiveModel::Serializers::JSON
    #     attr_accessor :name, :notes # Emulate has_many :notes
