What is this?

This repository tries to illustrate an issue / question with Hanami 0.8 with dry-validation and a request param like this:

{
  data: {
    attributes: {
      email: '[email protected]',
      password: 'secret',
      alternative_emails: [
        {email: "[email protected]", description: "work"},
        {email: "[email protected]",   description: "home"}
      ]
    }
  }
}

After the params is validated in the controller the alternative_emails becomes String, and not expected Hash.

Please see the following files:

1. spec/web/controllers/user/create_spec.rb - Simply calling action with params, expecting params to be returned in response.
2. apps/web/controllers/user/create.rb - The action and comments describing three attempts I did to get the expected behavior.
