How can I use Panko::Response with a single object? about panko_serializer HOT 6 CLOSED

@bbay Hi!

The API I wrote above is planned for future versions of Panko, currently, it won't work - since Panko::Serializer constructor doesn't accept a model (in your case user).

I updated the docs, sorry for the inconvenience - e139348.

Hi @dkulchenko ,

Sorry for late response, the proper solution is to break Panko's API, so instead of what you wrote you could write:

render json: Panko::Response.new(
      status: 'active',
      user: UserSerializer.new(user)
)

This is something I am planning for a later version (probably 1.*), but not for now.

The current solution will be to use new Panko API (which I will add public documentation soon) is that response creator API.

render(
  json: Panko::Response.create do |r|
    {
      status: 'active',
      user: r.serializer(user, UserSerializer)
    }
  end
)

from panko_serializer.

hello @yosiat

What's the current preferred solution for this?

render(
  json: Panko::Response.create do |r|
    {
      status: 'active',
      user: r.serializer(user, UserSerializer)
    }
  end
)

This worked for me, but I don't see it anywhere in the docs, the first version you provided didn't work for me.

thanks!

hello again @yosiat
Following up from my last post where I needed serialization of a single object.
I need now to pass some options and I noticed it is not possible due to the implementation in ResponseCreator (response.rb)

wdyt about adding this change?

   # in lib/panko/response.rb
    def self.serializer(data, serializer, options = {})
      json serializer.new(options).serialize_to_json(data)
    end

So I can then do something like this:

render(
  json: Panko::Response.create do |r|
    {
      status: 'active',
      user: r.serializer(user, UserSerializer, context: {index: true})
    }
  end
)
