我有带有 Cancan 1.6.9 的 Rails 3 应用程序进行授权。我想将能力类转换为 JSON。这是我的能力课程。

# encoding: utf-8

module Ability

  def self.for(guest)
    guest ||= User.new # guest user (not logged in)

    if guest.admin?
      AdminAbility.new(guest)
    elsif guest.assurer?
      AssurerAbility.new(guest)
    end
  end

  ##
  # Assurer
  class AssurerAbility
    include CanCan::Ability

    def initialize(user)
      cannot :manage, User
      can :read, ExchangeRate
    end
  end

  ##
  # Admin
  class AdminAbility
    include CanCan::Ability

    def initialize(user)
      can :manage, User
      can :manage, ExchangeRate
    end

  end

end

当我运行时Ability.for(User.last).to_json，出现以下错误：

当我跑步时，Ability.for(User.last).as_json我得到了结果。但这不是有效的 JSON 结果。

{"rules"=>[#<CanCan::Rule:0xaf5e81c @match_all=false, @base_behavior=false, @actions=[:manage], @subjects=[User(id: integer, password_digest: string, created_at: datetime, updated_at: datetime, uic: string, role: string, name: string, register_no: string)], @conditions={}, @block=nil>, #<CanCan::Rule:0xaf5e72c @match_all=false, @base_behavior=true, @actions=[:read], @subjects=[ExchangeRate(id: integer, data: float, date: date, created_at: datetime, updated_at: datetime)], @conditions={}, @block=nil>]}

任何想法？

TL;DR：在模型中实现self.as_json方法并明确指定要转换为 JSON 的字段。在此之后，您将能够正常运行Ability.for(User.last).to_json。

完整解释：让我们看一下Ability从源代码中看到的结构：

  • Ability实例有一个名为 的字段@rules。
  • 每个规则都有一个名为的字段@subject，它是一个扁平的 ActiveRecord 类（User等ExchangeRate）。是的，类，而不是类实例。
  • @subject转换为 JSON 并CircularReferenceError出现。为什么？

问题是，将UserorExchangeRate类转换为 JSON 并不是一个好主意，因为它们的结构可能非常复杂。例如，如果你尝试运行User.as_json，结果可能是这样的。可能其中一个User's 字段引用返回User，你得到CircularReferenceError。为避免这种情况，请指定哪些字段应包含在 JSON 表示中User（同样适用于ExchangeRate）：

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  #...
  def self.as_json(options = {})
    { "class" => "User" }
  end
end
