Makes it possible to use current_user within serializers

[sonxurxo]

Setting the scope to the endpoint makes it possible to use current_user within serializers.

Serializers must delegate :current_user to the scope, like this:

class BaseSerializer < ActiveModel::Serializer
  delegate :current_user, to: :scope
end

I personally use this BaseSerializer and then extend all my serializers from this one.

Looks good but the tests need fixing and this needs its own tests. Can you write some then I will merge it. Cheers.

On trying this, but I am getting an error

UserSerializer#current_user delegated to scope.current_user, but scope is nil

I am setting the scope to the endpoint as

get "", scope: @current_user do
...
end

Did you face anything similar?

Thanks

@anujmiddha you need to change your scope declaration as like below

get "/", scope: :current_user do
...
end

And you should have current_user method declared in your helpers
