Hi roro, I have a very special purpose API built in Rails for an iPhone and Android game. At the moment almost every Model has a custom as_json which does things like limit the number of fields returned (for smaller payloads) and to include extra relevant information (like data from associations). Some of the as_json methods are getting incredibly disgusting as they take modes in which they are being viewed (e.g. admin vs client). On top of this many of the controller actions build ridiculous Hashes which mix a bunch of different models together (especially bad in one particular monolithic method, but unfortunately that method has to stay).
So the solution I want to implement is to start rendering JSON Views. JSON Views would make a lot of sense for what I'm doing. Especially for the monolithic method, it would be amazing to split that up into partials. Is there anything which is particularly good for this? Or should I just create a bunch of .json.erb files?
