Finding all groups of the poster in a topic

[Arkshine]

Hi,

Not an expert – In a plugin, you can add the groups field to the post serializer, something like that:

add_to_serializer(
    :post,
    :groups
) { object.user&.groups }

However, keep in mind that, as it is, anyone can see what group a person is in.
That said, I believe that as long as you’re using a flair, the group’s name will be visible to anyone, regardless of the permissions.

You could also insert a new available_flairs field to return only the group’s flairs necessary fields:

add_to_serializer(:post, :available_flairs) do
  flairs = Array(object.user&.groups&.map do |group|
    next unless group.flair_url
    {
      id: group.id,
      name: group.name,
      url: group.flair_url,
      bgColor: group.flair_bg_color,
      color: group.flair_color
    }
  end).compact

  flairs
end

I hope that helps.
