# active-serializer

Rails active_model_serializer inspired nodejs object serializer

## Installation

  `npm install active-serializer --save`

## Usage

```

    const serialize = require('active-serializer');

    const object = { 

        id: 'some_id', 

        name: 'some_name', 

        unwanted: 'will not be shown',

        image_url: async (options) => { return await 'some_url' }

    };

    const attributes = ['id', 'name', 'image_url'];

    const options = {}

    const result = await serialize(object, attributes, options);

    console.log(result);

```

  Output should be: 

```

    { 

        id: 'some_id', 

        name: 'some_name', 

        image_url: 'some_url'

    }

```

### Nested Serialization

```

    const nestedObject = { 

        id: 'some_id', 

        name: 'some_name', 

        unwanted: 'will not be shown',

        image_url: async (options) => { return await 'some_url' },

        object2: {

            id: 'some_other_id',

            attr1: 'some_attr',

            attr2: 'will not be shown'

        }

    };

    

    const object2Serializer = async (object2, options) => {

        const attributes2 = ['id', 'attr1'];

        return await serialize(object2, attributes2, options);

    };

    const attributes1 = ['id', 'name', 'image_url', 'object2'];

    const options = { 

        'serializers': { 'object2': object2Serializer }

    }

    const result = await serialize(nestedObject, attributes1, options);

    console.log(result);

```

  Output should be: 

```

    { 

        id: 'some_id', 

        name: 'some_name', 

        image_url: 'some_url',

        object2: {

            id: 'some_other_id',

            attr1: 'some_attr'

        }

    }

```
