Overview

We want to transform something like this:

{ :user => { :email => "[email protected]", :password => "pwd", :first_name => "Fred", :surname => "Flintstone" } }

Into something like this for submission to the ZedAPI:

{ 
  "user[email]" => "[email protected]",
  "user[password]" => "pwd", "user[first_name]" => "Fred", "user[surname]" => "Flintstone"
}

The API only ever uses a single level, never something like [user][name]. If more than a single level is submitted we don’t bother to try and sort it out here, as it will not work anyway. Let the caller figure that out and resolve it on their end.

FYI, the API’s backend controllers do NOT use mass assignment for attributes submitted, EVER. Submitting anything other than documented object data items for each API method has no negative impact. Inapplicable attributes, or nefarious submissions on update, such as user, are simply ignored.
