use array instead of hash about rabl

[nesquena]

Array is the root object only for collections

Rabl.configure do |config|
  config.include_json_root = false
end

then all the objects (in collections) will not include the root node and start as arrays. Is that what you mean?

Is there's a way to construct [[]] with rabl?

[nesquena]

Can you give me an example of the type of data response you want to generate?

Also having a bit of trouble getting rabl to return something like:

[{ "name": "Joe", "age": 22 }, { "name": "Michael", "age": 26 }]

Let's say my controller has an instance variable named @people

[nesquena]

Take a look at configuration options. By default rabl assumes you want 'json' roots which is to say

[{ "person" : { "name": "Joe", "age": 22 } }, { "person" : { "name": "Michael", "age": 26  } }]

since this is what mirrors rails most closely and it's generally a better pattern to have a way to recognize the data contained in the dictionary. You can play with config.include_json_root (check the readme) to change that behavior throughout an application.

This should be fixed with config.include_json_root options
