rails render json only some attributes
To render only specific attributes in JSON using Ruby on Rails, follow these steps:
Define a Serializer for the Model: class PostSerializer < ActiveModel::Serializer attributes :title, :body end
Use the Serializer in Controller: def show post = Post.find(params[:id]) render json: post, serializer: PostSerializer end
Customize Serialization Options: # To include associations class PostSerializer < ActiveModel::Serializer attributes :title, :body has_many :comments end
# To rename attributes class PostSerializer < ActiveModel::Serializer attributes :title attribute :content, key: :body end
