to_xml(options={}) public

A method to convert the the resource to an XML string.

Options

The options parameter is handed off to the to_xml method on each attribute, so it has the same options as the to_xml methods in ActiveSupport.

indent:	Set the indent level for the XML output (default is `2)`.
dasherize:	Boolean option to determine whether or not element names should replace underscores with dashes (default is `false)`.
skip_instruct:	Toggle skipping the `instruct!` call on the XML builder that generates the XML declaration (default is `false)`.

Examples

  my_group = SubsidiaryGroup.find(:first)
  my_group.to_xml
  # => <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
  #    <subsidiary_group> [...] </subsidiary_group>

  my_group.to_xml(:dasherize => true)
  # => <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
  #    <subsidiary-group> [...] </subsidiary-group>

  my_group.to_xml(:skip_instruct => true)
  # => <subsidiary_group> [...] </subsidiary_group>
