Extending User Serializer?

wackyMole

I was trying to store a fully qualified URL in the avatar_url field because that made sense to me. However, core does some fancy logic with that field, meaning I can't do that. I finally figured out how to add a column to the users table, now I'm trying to figure out how to get the serializer to include that field in the API response. Any tips on where I might find some help? I looked at the documentation, but didn't see any information there.

So I decided it might make more sense to go about this in another way without invoking the nonsense of the database. However, I still need to modify a user object at some point. The serializer makes the most sense to me but I'm still having difficulty extending it.

You can modify API attributes by listening for the PrepareApiAttributes event. See an example in the Suspend extension.
