Blueprinter gem - 渲染 STI 集合

Question

I'm trying to use the new alternative for serialization: Blueprinter

How do you handle STI collection where every model is some type of view?

I came up with something like this (saw similar code on AMS github issue):

def serialize_cards(cards)
  cards.group_by(&:type).map do |type, cards|
    case type
    when 'TypeOneCard' then Api::V1::CardBlueprint.render(cards, view: :one)
    when 'TypeTwoCard' then Api::V1::CardBlueprint.render(cards, view: :two)
    else  raise ArgumentError, "Unhandled event type '#{type}'"
    end
  end
end

Why is output in string with backslashes:

[

Use render_to_hash instead of outputting each serializer as JSON

def serialize_cards(cards)
  cards.group_by(&:type).map do |type, cards|
    case type
    when 'TypeOneCard' 
      Api::V1::CardBlueprint.render_to_hash(cards, view: :one)
    when 'TypeTwoCard' 
      Api::V1::CardBlueprint.render_to_hash(cards, view: :two)
    else  
      raise ArgumentError, "Unhandled event type '#{type}'"
    end
  end
end
