module Serialization
include ActiveModel::Serializers::Xml
# Builds an XML document to represent the model. Some configuration is
# available through +options+. However more complicated cases should
# override ActiveRecord::Base#to_xml.
#
# By default the generated XML document will include the processing
# instruction and all the object's attributes. For example:
#
# <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
# <topic>
# <title>The First Topic</title>
# <author-name>David</author-name>
# <id type="integer">1</id>
# <approved type="boolean">false</approved>
# <replies-count type="integer">0</replies-count>
# <bonus-time type="dateTime">2000-01-01T08:28:00+12:00</bonus-time>
# <written-on type="dateTime">2003-07-16T09:28:00+1200</written-on>
# <content>Have a nice day</content>
# <author-email-address>david@loudthinking.com</author-email-address>
# <parent-id></parent-id>
# <last-read type="date">2004-04-15</last-read>
# </topic>
#
# This behavior can be controlled with <tt>:only</tt>, <tt>:except</tt>,
# <tt>:skip_instruct</tt>, <tt>:skip_types</tt>, <tt>:dasherize</tt> and <tt>:camelize</tt> .
# The <tt>:only</tt> and <tt>:except</tt> options are the same as for the
# +attributes+ method. The default is to dasherize all column names, but you
# can disable this setting <tt>:dasherize</tt> to +false+. Setting <tt>:camelize</tt>
# to +true+ will camelize all column names - this also overrides <tt>:dasherize</tt>.
# To not have the column type included in the XML output set <tt>:skip_types</tt> to +true+.
#
# For instance:
#
# topic.to_xml(:skip_instruct => true, :except => [ :id, :bonus_time, :written_on, :replies_count ])
#
# <topic>
# <title>The First Topic</title>
# <author-name>David</author-name>
# <approved type="boolean">false</approved>
# <content>Have a nice day</content>

#
# To include first level associations use <tt>:include</tt>:
#
# firm.to_xml :include => [ :account, :clients ]
#
# <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
# <firm>
# <id type="integer">1</id>
# <rating type="integer">1</rating>
# <name>37signals</name>
# <clients type="array">
# <client>
# <rating type="integer">1</rating>
# <name>Summit</name>
# </client>
# <client>
# <rating type="integer">1</rating>
# <name>Microsoft</name>
# </client>
# </clients>
# <account>
# <id type="integer">1</id>
# <credit-limit type="integer">50</credit-limit>
# </account>
# </firm>
#
# Additionally, the record being serialized will be passed to a Proc's second
# parameter. This allows for ad hoc additions to the resultant document that
# incorporate the context of the record being serialized. And by leveraging the
# closure created by a Proc, to_xml can be used to add elements that normally fall
# outside of the scope of the model -- for example, generating and appending URLs
# associated with models.
#
# proc = Proc.new { |options, record| options[:builder].tag!('name-reverse', record.name.reverse) }
# firm.to_xml :procs => [ proc ]
#
# <firm>
# # ... normal attributes as shown above ...
# <name-reverse>slangis73</name-reverse>
# </firm>
#
# To include deeper levels of associations pass a hash like this:
#
# firm.to_xml :include => {:account => {}, :clients => {:include => :address}}
# <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
# <firm>
# <id type="integer">1</id>
# <rating type="integer">1</rating>
# <name>37signals</name>
# <clients type="array">
# <client>
# <rating type="integer">1</rating>
# <name>Summit</name>
# <address>
# ...
# </address>
# </client>
# <client>
# <rating type="integer">1</rating>
# <name>Microsoft</name>
# <address>
# ...
# </address>
# </client>
# </clients>
# <account>
# <id type="integer">1</id>
# <credit-limit type="integer">50</credit-limit>
# </account>
# </firm>
#
# To include any methods on the model being called use <tt>:methods</tt>:
#
# firm.to_xml :methods => [ :calculated_earnings, :real_earnings ]
#
# <firm>
# # ... normal attributes as shown above ...
# <calculated-earnings>100000000000000000</calculated-earnings>
# <real-earnings>5</real-earnings>
# </firm>
#
# To call any additional Procs use <tt>:procs</tt>. The Procs are passed a
# modified version of the options hash that was given to +to_xml+:
#
# proc = Proc.new { |options| options[:builder].tag!('abc', 'def') }
# firm.to_xml :procs => [ proc ]
#
# <firm>
# # ... normal attributes as shown above ...
# <abc>def</abc>
# </firm>
#
# Alternatively, you can yield the builder object as part of the +to_xml+ call:
#
# firm.to_xml do |xml|
# xml.creator do
# xml.first_name "David"
# xml.last_name "Heinemeier Hansson"
# end
# end
#
# <firm>
# # ... normal attributes as shown above ...
# <creator>
# <first_name>David</first_name>
# <last_name>Heinemeier Hansson</last_name>
# </creator>
# </firm>
#
# As noted above, you may override +to_xml+ in your ActiveRecord::Base
# subclasses to have complete control about what's generated. The general
# form of doing this is:
#
# class IHaveMyOwnXML < ActiveRecord::Base
# def to_xml(options = {})
# require 'builder'
# options[:indent] ||= 2
# xml = options[:builder] ||= ::Builder::XmlMarkup.new(:indent => options[:indent])
# xml.instruct! unless options[:skip_instruct]
# xml.level_one do
# xml.tag!(:second_level, 'content')
# end
# end
# end
def to_xml(options = {}, &block)
XmlSerializer.new(self, options).serialize(&block)
end
end
