# serializable
Base class with serialization methods for user-defined Python objects
## Usage
Classes which inherit from `Serializable` are enabled with default implementations of
`to_json`, `from_json`, `__reduce__` (for pickling), and other serialization
helpers.
A derived class must either:
* have a member data matching the name of each argument to `__init__`
* provide a user-defined `to_dict()` method which returns a dictionary whose keys match the arguments to `__init__`
If you change the keyword arguments to a class which derives from `Serializable` but would like to be able to deserialize older JSON representations then you can define a class-level dictionary called `_KEYWORD_ALIASES` which maps old keywords to new names (or `None` if a keyword was removed).
## Limitations
* Serializable objects must inherit from `Serializable`, be tuples or namedtuples, be serializble primitive types such as dict, list, int, float, or str.
* The serialized representation of objects relies on reserved keywords (such as `"__name__"`, and `"__class__"`), so dictionaries are expected to not contain any keys which begin with two underscores.
