# Provides ActiveRecord 3.1x-friendly serialization for descendants of
# ApplicationRecord. Backwards compatible with older YAML methods and
# will fall back to string decoding in the worst case
#
# @example Using default default of {}
#   serialize :foo, MetasploitDataModels::Base64Serializer.new
#
# @example Overriding default to []
#   serialize :bar, MetasploitDataModels::Base64Serializer.new(:default => [])
#
class MetasploitDataModels::Base64Serializer
  #
  # CONSTANTS
  #

  # The default for {#default}
  DEFAULT = {}
  # Deserializers for {#load}
  # 1. Base64 decoding and then unmarshalling the value.
  # 2. Parsing the value as YAML.
  # 3. The raw value.
