# fast_serializer

`fast_serializer_ruby` is a lightweight ruby object to hash transformer.
This library intends to solve such a typical and on the other hand important problem as efficient ruby object to hash transformation.

## Performance πŸš€
- running on ruby 2.7 is **at least 6 times faster** than AMS (benchmarks was borrowed from fast_jsonapi repository)
- running on ruby 2.7 it consumes **6 times less RAM**
- running on jruby 9.2.7.0 **is at least 4 times faster** than AMS after warming up

## Compatibility πŸ‘Œ
I tried to keep the API as close as possible to active_model_serializer implementation because we all got used to it.

## Features
- conditional rendering
- inheritence
- included/excluded associations

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

```ruby
gem 'fast_serializer_ruby'
```

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install fast_serializer_ruby

## Usage

`fast_serializer` supports default schema definition using class methods

```ruby
class ResourceSerializer
include FastSerializer::Schema::Mixin

root :resource

attributes :id, :email, :phone

attribute(:string_id, if: -> { params[:stringify] }) { resource.id.to_s }
attribute(:float_id, unless: :stringify?) { object.id.to_f }
attribute(:full_name) { params[:only_first_name] ? resource.first_name : "#{resource.first_name} #{resource.last_name}" }

has_one :has_one_relationship, serializer: ResourceSerializer
has_many :has_many_relationship, serializer: ResourceSerializer

def stringify?
params[:stringify]
end
end

ResourceSerializer.new(resource, meta: {foo: "bar"}, only_first_name: false, stringify: true, exclude: [:has_many_relationship]).serializable_hash
=> {
:resource => {
:id => 7873392581,
:email => "[email protected]",
:full_name => "Jamar Graham",
:phone => "627.051.6039 x1475",
:has_one_relationship => {
:id => 6218322696,
:email=>"[email protected]",
:full_name => "Clay Kuphal",
:phone => "1-604-682-0732 x882"
}
},
meta: { foo: "bar" }
}

```

Also fast_serializer supports runtime schema definition

```ruby
schema = FastSerializer::Schema.new(resource)
schema.attribute(:id)
schema.attribute(:email)
schema.attribute(:full_name) { |resource| "#{resource.first_name} #{resource.last_name}"}
schema.attribute(:phone)
schema.has_one(:has_one_relationship, schema: schema)

schema.serializable_hash
=> {
:id => 7873392581,
:email => "[email protected]",
:full_name => "Jamar Graham",
:phone => "627.051.6039 x1475",
:has_one_relationship => {
:id => 6218322696,
:email=>"[email protected]",
:full_name => "Clay Kuphal",
:phone => "1-604-682-0732 x882"
}
}

```
