module ActionController
  # Wraps the parameters hash into a nested hash. This will allow clients to submit
  # POST requests without having to specify any root elements.
  #
  # This functionality is enabled in +config/initializers/wrap_parameters.rb+
  # and can be customized. If you are upgrading to \Rails 3.1, this file will
  # need to be created for the functionality to be enabled.
  #
  # You could also turn it on per controller by setting the format array to
  # a non-empty array:
  #
  #     class UsersController < ApplicationController
  #       wrap_parameters format: [:json, :xml]
  #     end
  #
  # If you enable +ParamsWrapper+ for +:json+ format, instead of having to
  # send JSON parameters like this:
  #
  #     {"user": {"name": "Konata"}}
  #
  # You can send parameters like this:
  #
  #     {"name": "Konata"}
  #
  # And it will be wrapped into a nested hash with the key name matching the
  # controller's name. For example, if you're posting to +UsersController+,
  # your new +params+ hash will look like this:
  #
  #     {"name" => "Konata", "user" => {"name" => "Konata"}}
  #
  # You can also specify the key in which the parameters should be wrapped to,
  # and also the list of attributes it should wrap by using either +:include+ or
  # +:exclude+ options like this:
  #
  #     class UsersController < ApplicationController
  #       wrap_parameters :person, include: [:username, :password]
  #     end
  #
  # On ActiveRecord models with no +:include+ or +:exclude+ option set,
  # it will only wrap the parameters returned by the class method
  # <tt>attribute_names</tt>.
  #
  # If you're going to pass the parameters to an +ActiveModel+ object (such as
  # <tt>User.new(params[:user])</tt>), you might consider passing the model class to
  # the method instead. The +ParamsWrapper+ will actually try to determine the
  # list of attribute names from the model and only wrap those attributes:
  #
  #     class UsersController < ApplicationController
  #       wrap_parameters Person
  #     end
  #
  # You still could pass +:include+ and +:exclude+ to set the list of attributes
  # you want to wrap.
  #
  # By default, if you don't specify the key in which the parameters would be
  # wrapped to, +ParamsWrapper+ will actually try to determine if there's
  # a model related to it or not. This controller, for example:
  #
  #     class Admin::UsersController < ApplicationController
  #     end
  #
  # will try to check if <tt>Admin::User</tt> or +User+ model exists, and use it to
  # determine the wrapper key respectively. If both models don't exist,
  # it will then fallback to use +user+ as the key.

      #
      #   wrap_parameters Person

      #     (+person+, in this case) and the list of attribute names
      #
      #   wrap_parameters :include => [:username, :title]
      #     # wraps only +:username+ and +:title+ attributes from parameters.

      #   will be enabled.
