//     Backbone.Rails.js
//
//     Makes Backbone.js play nicely with the default Rails setup, i.e.,
//     no need to set
//       ActiveRecord::Base.include_root_in_json = false
//     and build all of your models directly from `params` rather than
//     `params[:model]`.
//
//     Load this file after backbone.js and before your application JS.

  ###
  Usage:
  * add model.name property that will be used as a namespace in the json request
  * put this code before your Backbone app code
  * use toJSON() as usual (so there is no namespacing in your templates)
  * your model's data will be sent under model.name key when calling save()
