Hi there, I'm using Sequel 3.38.0 and ActiveSupport 3.2.6.
I'm trying to use the JSON Serializer plugin to generate JSON for some nested model structures. The project that I'm working on also makes use of some ActiveSupport features. Unfortunately, this appears to create a conflict when ActiveSupport overrides the to_json methods on Hash and Array. I've found a workaround in monkeypatching the monkeypatched Hash and Array classes, but it's pretty ugly. Is there a better way? Here's a sample gist that shows the conflict: <script src="https://gist.github.com/3371268.js";> </script> Running this script will produce the following: Good JSON [{"name":"Bob","id":1,"albums":[{"label":"Summer","tracks":[{"id":1,"length":10,"json_class":"Track"},{"id":2,"length":20,"json_class":"Track"}],"id":1,"json_class":"Album"},{"label":"Winter","tracks":[{"id":3,"length":30,"json_class":"Track"},{"id":4,"length":40,"json_class":"Track"}],"id":2,"json_class":"Album"}],"json_class":"Artist"}] Bad JSON [{"json":"{\"name\":\"Bob\",\"id\":1,\"albums\":[{\"json\":\"{\\\"label\\\":\\\"Summer\\\",\\\"tracks\\\":[{\\\"id\\\":1,\\\"length\\\":10},{\\\"id\\\":2,\\\"length\\\":20}],\\\"id\\\":1,\\\"json_class\\\":\\\"Album\\\"}\"},{\"json\":\"{\\\"label\\\":\\\"Winter\\\",\\\"tracks\\\":[{\\\"id\\\":3,\\\"length\\\":30},{\\\"id\\\":4,\\\"length\\\":40}],\\\"id\\\":2,\\\"json_class\\\":\\\"Album\\\"}\"}],\"json_class\":\"Artist\"}"}] Good JSON, ugly workaround [{"name":"Bob","id":1,"albums":[{"label":"Summer","tracks":[{"id":1,"length":10,"json_class":"Track"},{"id":2,"length":20,"json_class":"Track"}],"id":1,"json_class":"Album"},{"label":"Winter","tracks":[{"id":3,"length":30,"json_class":"Track"},{"id":4,"length":40,"json_class":"Track"}],"id":2,"json_class":"Album"}],"json_class":"Artist"}] Is there a better workaround or some configuration step I'm missing?
