Supporting serializing ruby objects

[KevinColemanInc]

Expected behavior vs actual behavior

Expected behavior can be found in the documentation:
https://github.com/rails-api/active_model_serializers/blob/master/README.md#what-does-a-serializable-resource-look-like

Actual Behavior:
NoMethodError: undefined method `attributes' for MyModel:Class

Steps to reproduce

You can paste the code in the documentation into irb.

https://github.com/rails-api/active_model_serializers/blob/master/README.md#what-does-a-serializable-resource-look-like

[1] pry(main)> class MyModel < ActiveModelSerializers::Model
[1] pry(main)*   attributes :id, :name, :level
[1] pry(main)* end
NoMethodError: undefined method `attributes' for MyModel:Class

You're reading documentation on master for version 0.10.2. That API is in master. Common issue. You'll need to use attr_accessor, per older docs in https://github.com/rails-api/active_model_serializers/blob/v0.10.2/docs/howto/serialize_poro.md

Also, I wonder if the docs mislead you, since your issue title is Supporting serializing ruby objects but your code example uses a subclass of ActiveModelSerializers::Model, which isn't required.
