Instance Method Details

#restful(*args, &block) ⇒ Object

Restfully serialize an activerecord object, association or a plain array of activerecord objects. The web service name must be specified as registered via Restful.register_web_service, unless there is only one registered service.

A final hash of options will be passed on to the serializer for configuration.

If a block is given, the serializer’s Restful::Configuration::Resource configuration object will be exposed for fine grained configuration.
