  In EmberData a Serializer is used to serialize and deserialize
  records when they are transferred in and out of an external source.
  This process involves normalizing property names, transforming
  attribute values and serializing relationships.

  By default, EmberData uses and recommends the `JSONAPISerializer`.

  `JSONSerializer` is useful for simpler or legacy backends that may
  not support the http://jsonapi.org/ spec.

  For example, given the following `User` model and JSON payload:

  ```app/models/user.js
  import Model, { attr, belongsTo, hasMany } from '@ember-data/model';

  export default class UserModel extends Model {
    @hasMany('user') friends;
    @belongsTo('location') house;

    @attr('string') name;
  }
  ```

  ```js
  {
    id: 1,
    name: 'Sebastian',
    friends: [3, 4],
    links: {
      house: '/houses/lefkada'
    }
  }
  ```

  `JSONSerializer` will normalize the JSON payload to the JSON API format that the
  Ember Data store expects.

  You can customize how JSONSerializer processes its payload by passing options in
  the `attrs` hash or by subclassing the `JSONSerializer` and overriding hooks:

    - To customize how a single record is normalized, use the `normalize` hook.
    - To customize how `JSONSerializer` normalizes the whole server response, use the
      `normalizeResponse` hook.
    - To customize how `JSONSerializer` normalizes a specific response from the server,
      use one of the many specific `normalizeResponse` hooks.
    - To customize how `JSONSerializer` normalizes your id, attributes or relationships,
      use the `extractId`, `extractAttributes` and `extractRelationships` hooks.

  The `JSONSerializer` normalization process follows these steps:

    1. `normalizeResponse`
        - entry method to the serializer.
    2. `normalizeCreateRecordResponse`
        - a `normalizeResponse` for a specific operation is called.
    3. `normalizeSingleResponse`|`normalizeArrayResponse`
        - for methods like `createRecord` we expect a single record back, while for methods like `findAll` we expect multiple records back.
    4. `normalize`
        - `normalizeArrayResponse` iterates and calls `normalize` for each of its records while `normalizeSingle`
          calls it once. This is the method you most likely want to subclass.
    5. `extractId` | `extractAttributes` | `extractRelationships`
        - `normalize` delegates to these methods to
          turn the record payload into the JSON API format.

  /**
    The `primaryKey` is used when serializing and deserializing
    data. Ember Data always uses the `id` property to store the id of
    the record. The external source may not always follow this
    convention. In these cases it is useful to override the
    `primaryKey` property to match the `primaryKey` of your external
    store.

    Example

    ```app/serializers/application.js
    import JSONSerializer from '@ember-data/serializer/json';

    export default class ApplicationSerializer extends JSONSerializer {
      primaryKey = '_id'
    }
    ```

    @property primaryKey
    @type {String}
    @public
    @default 'id'
  */
  primaryKey: 'id',

  /**
    The `attrs` object can be used to declare a simple mapping between
    property names on `Model` records and payload keys in the
    serialized JSON object representing the record. An object with the
    property `key` can also be used to designate the attribute's key on
    the response payload.

    Example

    ```app/models/person.js
    import Model, { attr } from '@ember-data/model';

    export default class PersonModel extends Model {
      @attr('string') firstName;
      @attr('string') lastName;
      @attr('string') occupation;
      @attr('boolean') admin;
    }
    ```

    ```app/serializers/person.js
    import JSONSerializer from '@ember-data/serializer/json';

    export default class PersonSerializer extends JSONSerializer {
      attrs = {
        admin: 'is_admin',
        occupation: { key: 'career' }
      }
    }
    ```

    You can also remove attributes and relationships by setting the `serialize`
    key to `false` in your mapping object.

    Example

    ```app/serializers/person.js
    import JSONSerializer from '@ember-data/serializer/json';

    export default class PostSerializer extends JSONSerializer {
      attrs = {
        admin: { serialize: false },
        occupation: { key: 'career' }
      }
    }
    ```

    When serialized:

    ```javascript
    {
      "firstName": "Harry",
      "lastName": "Houdini",
      "career": "magician"
    }
    ```

    Note that the `admin` is now not included in the payload.

    Setting `serialize` to `true` enforces serialization for hasMany
    relationships even if it's neither a many-to-many nor many-to-none
    relationship.

    @property attrs
    @public
    @type {Object}

  /**
   Given a subclass of `Model` and a JSON object this method will

   serializer's `normalize` method.

    typeClass.eachTransformedAttribute((key, typeClass) => {
      if (data[key] === undefined) {
        return;
      }

      const transform = this.transformFor(typeClass);

    The `normalizeResponse` method is used to normalize a payload from the

    http://jsonapi.org/format/#document-structure

    This method delegates to a more specific normalize method based on
    the `requestType`.

    To override this method with a custom one, make sure to call
    `return super.normalizeResponse(store, primaryModelClass, payload, id, requestType)` with your
    pre-processed data.

    Here's an example of using `normalizeResponse` manually:

    ```javascript
    socket.on('message', function(message) {
      let data = message.data;

      let serializer = store.serializerFor(data.modelName);

  // SERIALIZE
  /**
    Called when a record is saved in order to convert the
    record into JSON.

    By default, it creates a JSON object with a key for
    each attribute and belongsTo relationship.

    For example, consider this model:

    ```app/models/comment.js
    import Model, { attr, belongsTo } from '@ember-data/model';

    export default class CommentModel extends Model {
      @attr title;
      @attr body;

      @belongsTo('user') author;
    }
    ```

    The default serialization would create a JSON object like:

    ```javascript
    {
      "title": "Rails is unagi",
      "body": "Rails? Omakase? O_O",
      "author": 12
    }
    ```

    By default, attributes are passed through as-is, unless
    you specified an attribute type (`attr('date')`). If
    you specify a transform, the JavaScript value will be
    serialized when inserted into the JSON hash.

    By default, belongs-to relationships are converted into
    IDs when inserted into the JSON hash.

    ## IDs

    `serialize` takes an options hash with a single option:
    `includeId`. If this option is `true`, `serialize` will,
    by default include the ID in the JSON object it builds.

    The adapter passes in `includeId: true` when serializing
    a record for `createRecord`, but not for `updateRecord`.

    ## Customization

    Your server may expect a different JSON format than the
    built-in serialization format.

    In that case, you can implement `serialize` yourself and
    return a JSON hash of your choosing.

    ```app/serializers/post.js
    import JSONSerializer from '@ember-data/serializer/json';

    export default class PostSerializer extends JSONSerializer {
      serialize(snapshot, options) {
        let json = {
          POST_TTL: snapshot.attr('title'),
          POST_BDY: snapshot.attr('body'),
          POST_CMS: snapshot.hasMany('comments', { ids: true })
        };

        if (options.includeId) {
          json.POST_ID_ = snapshot.id;
        }

        return json;
      }
    }
    ```

    ## Customizing an App-Wide Serializer

    If you want to define a serializer for your entire
    application, you'll probably want to use `eachAttribute`
    and `eachRelationship` on the record.

    ```app/serializers/application.js
    import JSONSerializer from '@ember-data/serializer/json';
    import { singularize } from '<app-name>/utils/string-utils';

    export default class ApplicationSerializer extends JSONSerializer {
      serialize(snapshot, options) {
        let json = {};

        snapshot.eachAttribute((name) => {
          json[serverAttributeName(name)] = snapshot.attr(name);
        });

        snapshot.eachRelationship((name, relationship) => {
          if (relationship.kind === 'hasMany') {
            json[serverHasManyName(name)] = snapshot.hasMany(name, { ids: true });
          }
        });

        if (options.includeId) {
          json.ID_ = snapshot.id;
        }

        return json;
      }
    }

    function serverAttributeName(attribute) {
      return attribute.underscore().toUpperCase();
    }

    function serverHasManyName(name) {
      return serverAttributeName(singularize(name)) + "_IDS";
    }
    ```

    This serializer will generate JSON that looks like this:

    ```javascript
    {
      "TITLE": "Rails is omakase",
      "BODY": "Yep. Omakase.",
      "COMMENT_IDS": [ "1", "2", "3" ]
    }
    ```

    ## Tweaking the Default JSON

    If you just want to do some small tweaks on the default JSON,
    you can call `super.serialize` first and make the tweaks on
    the returned JSON.

    ```app/serializers/post.js
    import JSONSerializer from '@ember-data/serializer/json';

    export default class PostSerializer extends JSONSerializer {
      serialize(snapshot, options) {
        let json = super.serialize(...arguments);

        json.subject = json.title;
        delete json.title;

        return json;
      }
    }
    ```

    @method serialize
    @public
    @param {Snapshot} snapshot
    @param {Object} options
    @return {Object} json
  */
  serialize(snapshot, options) {
    const json = {};

    if (options && options.includeId) {
      const id = snapshot.id;
      if (id) {
        json[this.primaryKey] = id;
      }
    }

    snapshot.eachAttribute((key, attribute) => {
      this.serializeAttribute(snapshot, json, key, attribute);
    });

    snapshot.eachRelationship((key, relationship) => {
      if (relationship.kind === 'belongsTo') {
        this.serializeBelongsTo(snapshot, json, relationship);
      } else if (relationship.kind === 'hasMany') {
        this.serializeHasMany(snapshot, json, relationship);
      }
    });

    return json;
  },

  /**
    `extractErrors` is used to extract model errors when a call
    to `Model#save` fails with an `InvalidError`. By default
    Ember Data expects error information to be located on the `errors`
    property of the payload object.

    This serializer expects this `errors` object to be an Array similar
    to the following, compliant with the https://jsonapi.org/format/#errors specification:

    ```js
    {
      "errors": [
        {
          "detail": "This username is already taken!",
          "source": {
            "pointer": "data/attributes/username"
          }
        }, {
          "detail": "Doesn't look like a valid email.",
          "source": {
            "pointer": "data/attributes/email"
          }
        }
      ]
    }
    ```

    The key `detail` provides a textual description of the problem.
    Alternatively, the key `title` can be used for the same purpose.

    The nested keys `source.pointer` detail which specific element
    of the request data was invalid.

    Note that JSON-API also allows for object-level errors to be placed
    in an object with pointer `data`, signifying that the problem
    cannot be traced to a specific attribute:

    ```javascript
    {
      "errors": [
        {
          "detail": "Some generic non property error message",
          "source": {
            "pointer": "data"
          }
        }
      ]
    }
    ```

    When turn into a `Errors` object, you can read these errors
    through the property `base`:

    ```handlebars
    {{#each @model.errors.base as |error|}}
      <div class="error">
        {{error.message}}
      </div>
    {{/each}}
    ```

    Example of alternative implementation, overriding the default
    behavior to deal with a different format of errors:

    ```app/serializers/post.js
    import JSONSerializer from '@ember-data/serializer/json';

    export default class PostSerializer extends JSONSerializer {
      extractErrors(store, typeClass, payload, id) {
        if (payload && typeof payload === 'object' && payload._problems) {
          payload = payload._problems;
          this.normalizeErrors(typeClass, payload);
        }
        return payload;
      }
    }
    ```

    @method extractErrors
    @public
    @param {Store} store
    @param {Model} typeClass
    @param {Object} payload
    @param {(String|Number)} id

  */
  extractErrors(store, typeClass, payload, id) {
    if (payload && typeof payload === 'object' && payload.errors) {
      // the default assumption is that errors is already in JSON:API format
      const extracted = {};

      payload.errors.forEach((error) => {
