I'm using the to_json method on my model object that I created by doing something like:
user = User.find(1)
When I do user.to_json, a lot of attributes are missing, including user.id from the encoded JSON string. It appears that all of the attributes that I've added as attr_accessible from the User model are there, but none of the others. Perhaps that is what to_json is doing, but I think that adding id to attr_accessible is a no go.
What is the right way of solving this problem?
UPDATE
This looks to be a specific issue with Devise. If I comment out the following from user.rb, everything works as expected:
devise :rememberable, :trackable, :token_authenticatable, :omniauthable
