-module ActionController
-  # Action Controller Serialization
-  #
-  # Overrides render :json to check if the given object implements +active_model_serializer+
-  # as a method. If so, use the returned serializer instead of calling +to_json+ in the object.
-  #
-  # This module also provides a serialization_scope method that allows you to configure the
-  # +serialization_scope+ of the serializer. Most apps will likely set the +serialization_scope+
-  # to the current user:
-  #
-  #    class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
-  #      serialization_scope :current_user
-  #    end
-  #
-  # If you need more complex scope rules, you can simply override the serialization_scope:
-  #
-  #    class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
-  #      private
-  #      
-  #      def serialization_scope
-  #        current_user
-  #      end
-  #    end
