Deserialize

`javascript
import { Formatter } from "sarala-json-api-data-formatter";

const formatter = new Formatter();

let data = this.deserialize(data);
`

Serialize

`javascript
import { Formatter } from "sarala-json-api-data-formatter";

const formatter = new Formatter();

let data = this.serialize(data);
`

Filter relationships

#### Deserialize only root objects and skip all relationships

`javascript
let data = this.includeOnly([]).deserialize(data);
`

#### Deserialize only specific relationships

When post has tags and comments, following will deserialize only root object and comments. Tags will be skipped.

`javascript
let data = this.includeOnly(['comments']).deserialize(data);
`

Filter fields

#### Deserialize only specified fields

`javascript
let data = this.filterFields({
posts: ['title', 'subtitle'],
tags: ['name']
}).deserialize(data);
`

> The serialize method can be used similarly with includeOnly and filterFields.
