  if @user.update(update_params)
    render :json => {:user => @user.to_json }
   else
    render :json => {:error => @user.errors.full_messages.first}
  end
end  

 private
   def user_params
    params.permit(:first_name, :last_name, :email, :phone_number,:password_confirmation, :password, :city) 
   end

def update_params
  params.permit(:first_name, :last_name,:phone_number, :city)
