  # Active Model Serializer
  #
  # Provides a basic serializer implementation that allows you to easily
  # control how a given object is going to be serialized. On initialization,
  # it expects to object as arguments, a resource and a scope. For example,
  # one may do in a controller:
  #
  #     PostSerializer.new(@post, current_user).to_json
  #
  # The object to be serialized is the +@post+ and the scope is +current_user+.
  #
  # We use the scope to check if a given attribute should be serialized or not.
  # For example, some attributes maybe only be returned if +current_user+ is the
  # author of the post:
  #
  #     class PostSerializer < ActiveModel::Serializer
  #       attributes :title, :body
  #       has_many :comments
  #
  #       private
  #
  #       def attributes
  #         hash = super
  #         hash.merge!(:email => post.email) if author?
  #         hash
  #       end
  #
  #       def author?
  #         post.author == scope
  #       end
  #     end
