I'm building an API with Grape on Rails 4.2. Here's a link to the repo on GitHub.
On the frontend, I have a JavaScript application built with EmberJS. Here's the link to the repo on GitHub as well.
I have updated the following gems so that I can format the responses of my API following JSON API standard, which appears to be required to update to Ember 1.13, then to Ember 2.0.
gem "active_model_serializers", '0.10.0.rc2'
gem "grape"
gem "grape-active_model_serializers", :git => 'https://github.com/jrhe/grape-active_model_serializers.git'
After that, I've got the following error when I call the API: IOError: Not opened for reading
According to the information I gathered here and there, I suspect this is a conflict with how I format JSON.
In default.rb, the file that inherit all API controllers, when I comment this line:
formatter :json, Grape::Formatter::ActiveModelSerializers
I don't have any error anymore, but obviously the response isn't serialized.
My questions are:
- Do you have any idea how I can solve this?
- Do you think it's relevant to use Grape to build the API in my Rails app? With Rails 5 coming, isn't that better to user rails-api and rewrite the whole app? I mean, I'm starting, it's maybe the right time to do that...
Let me know if you need more information.
Thanks in advance for your help.
