It seems a little silly that you can't set a key on a dish plate object.

On a Product model, calling description returns:

"#<Product:0xd8bbfd0>"

Using in RubyMotion

How would I do this? Is it possible to do that or do I have to use the Dish(Hash) syntax?

What everyone's opinion on this? User configurable, default option, etc.?

• Convert camel case keys into underscore keys. (This is useful in the library I wrote, it's a matter of opinion if it's a good default though)
• Adds support for #key_name= methods. (This modified the original has ATM)
• Displays the keys in #methods (underscored like about, but could be changed).
• Fixes #to_json which is useful when marshaling and unmarshaling to/from HTTP responses.
• Use #to_h instead of #as_hash (provide an alias for compat.)

See the original file used in an API client here.

Right now we don't have any tests for the project in RubyMotion.
Anybody have ideas on how to automatically test the project with RubyMotion?
Thanks.

Hey there, I'm using Dish in RubyMotion and I really love it! Thanks so much for creating this library and making it compatible with RM!

Question about getting a reference to an object's parent...

I have:

{
  id: 12,
  items: [{
    name: "test1"
  },{
    name: "test2"
  }]
}

Defined by:

class Order < Dish::Plate
  coerce :items, Item
end
class Item < Dish::Plate
end

Is there a way to get an item's parent (Order) id?

# my_item is an Item
my_item.parent # Order object
my_item.parent.id # 12

Or if not, is there perhaps a way to set a weakref to the parent when initializing the objects?

class Order < Dish::Plate
  # Something like this?
  coerce :items, ->(value) { Item.new(value, self) }
end
class Item < Dish::Plate
  def initialize(hash, parent)
    super
    @parent = WeafRef.new(parent)
  end
end

Any ideas? Thanks again for the great library!

Why has the Dish::Plate#to_json method been merged into 99ac61a?

It is quite complex and even contains platform specific dependencies (NSJSONSerialization). So let the user decide how he/she wants to use to_json. Any thoughts?

Furthermore it's not covered by any tests.

Dish causes behavioral difference on Object#try

require 'dish'

dish = Dish({a:1,b:2})
 => #<Dish::Plate:0x007fcfc2c99070 @_original_hash={"a"=>1, "b"=>2}>

dish.a
 => 1

dish.try(:a)
 => nil

I haven't read the source, but is this expected? Workarounds?

When attempting to use Dish with ActiveModel::Model includes it fails because initialize requires the first parameter as a hash, I feel it should be defaulted to hash = {}.
