+    # Returns a JSON string representing the model. Some configuration is
+    # available through +options+.
+    #
+    # Without any +options+, the returned JSON string will include all
+    # the model's attributes. For example:
+    #
+    #   konata = User.find(1)
+    #   konata.to_json
+    #   # => {"id": 1, "name": "Konata Izumi", "age": 16,

+    # The <tt>:only</tt> and <tt>:except</tt> options can be used to limit the attributes
+    # included, and work similar to the +attributes+ method. For example:
