Can't name has_one associated ':options'

[hulloitskai]

has_one :options doesn't seem to work—however, as a workaround, the following does work:

class MyThingSerializer < Oj::Serializer
  has_one :_options, as: :options, serializer: MyFancyOptionsSerializer do
    my_thing.options
  end
end

Any ideas behind the source of this strange behaviour?

it seems the serializer class have an instance method called options already which use to accept options for the seriazlier. need to use other name since options is already taken.
