Description
Suppose we have a Post class with has_many :comments, along with a PostSerializer. If we forget to define a CommentSerializer, rendering a Post with the JSONAPI adapter leads to the confusing following result (the comments are actually embedded in the relationship, which breaks JSONAPI spec):
{
data: {
type: 'posts',
id: 1,
attributes: { title: 'Title', body: 'Body' }
relationships: {
comments: {
{
data: [{ id: 1, contents: 'Contents', author_id: 1, post_id: 1 },
{ id: 2, contents: 'Contents', author_id: 2, post_id: 1 }]
}
}
}
}
}It might be helpful to either have a way to warn the user that a given model does not have a corresponding serializer defined (as suggested in #1068), or have a default behavior of serializing stuff as Resource Identifiers.
