Show HN: Shale – a Ruby object mapper and serializer for JSON, YAML and XML
Serialization/deserialization is such an important part of web development, I have no idea why Rails includes the ancient JBuilder (and very slow since it goes through templating) library, instead of investing in a proper library. Let alone deserializing which is equally important..
I think the API Shale provides is pretty sane. I would probably use it in my next Ruby/Rails project. I don't like the fact that Nokogiri is included by default, it would be nice to declare a core type, and then bring in what you need (JSON, XML, YAML) as a different gem. But that's not a deal breaker for me.
I have created my own serializers in the past (SimpleAMS[1]) because I really detested AMS, no offence to AMS contributors, but AMS library should just die. Rails, and way more importantly Ruby, should come up with an "official" serializers/deserializers library that is flexible enough, rock solid and fast. For instance I had done some benchmarking among common serializer libraries [2] and AMS was crazy slow, without providing much flexibility, really (meaning, slowness is not justified). Others were faster, but were supporting only one JSON spec format (like jsonapi-rb).
Another thing is that most serialization libraries seem to have ActiveSupport as a main dependency (not shale though) which I think is a bit too much, and actually has a performance hit on the methods it provides. I really think that Ruby community can do better here ?
