# Primalize::JSONAPI

This is a JSON-API adapter for the [`primalize` gem](https://github.com/jgaskins/primalize), which provides type-checked serializers for Ruby web APIs. It aims to provide some level of compatibility with the JSON-API spec while still allowing for the type checking of Primalize.

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

```ruby
gem 'primalize-jsonapi'
```

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install primalize-jsonapi

## Usage

```ruby
class OrderSerializer < Primalize::JSONAPI[Order]
# Notice we no longer need the `id` field. It is assumed.
attributes(
customer_name: string,
delivery_address: primalize(AddressSerializer),
delivery_instructions: optional(string),
shipping_carrier: enum(
'UPS',
'FedEx',
'USPS',
'Creepy white van',
),
subtotal_cents: integer,
shipping_fee_cents: integer,
tax_cents: integer,
total_cents: integer,
)

# Associations are similar to other serialization gems, but you need to
# specify the serializer. There is no runtime inference yet. We do it inside
# a block in case it has not been loaded yet.
has_many(:line_items) { LineItemSerializer }
has_one(:customer) { CustomerSerializer }
end
```

## Performance

Even with type checking, performance is still [over 12x](https://github.com/Netflix/fast_jsonapi/pull/42#issuecomment-364693269) that of `ActiveModel::Serializers`. Netflix's `fast_jsonapi` is faster, but doesn't provide type the type safety of Primalize.

## Development

After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run `rake spec` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run `bundle exec rake install`. To release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, and then run `bundle exec rake release`, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the `.gem` file to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org).
