Shale uses Ruby's standard library parsers out of the box, so if you keep your Ruby up to date with security updates you will be good. Also others in this thread suggested to set minimal version on dependencies, so I'll probably d

If you don't define attributes explicitly on the model, Shale will ignore them. Regarding attributes that you defined but still don't want to be assigned, you should probably filter them before passing them to Shale, or alternativ

Documentation site was based on https://vuepress.vuejs.org/ but it evolved so much I dropped Vue all together and wen't with plain HTML instead. I must have left that meta tag from the early days. Regarding Vue I use i

HappyMapper was actually an inspiration for Shale. If it had support for JSON, Shale probably wouldn't be created :)

I totally agree with your points, but this approach has one big advantage - it's dead simple - define attributes and mapping and you're good to go.

I'm glad you like it. One clarification - Nokogiri is not required by default, you have to explicitly require "shale/adapter/nokogiri" to use it. If you don't Shale will use REXML which comes from Ruby's s
