MongoidNestedSerialization
Loads nested Mongoid documents using JSON serialization.
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem "mongoid-nested-serialization"And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install mongoid-nested-serialization
Usage
The module will be automatically loaded into your Mongoid::Document objects:
class User
include Mongoid::Document
# also performs:
# include Mongoid::NestedSerialization
# objects may be embedded within others
embedded_in :account, inverse_of: :users
end
# find the root object
account = Account.first
# create a persisted object within it
user = account.users.create # => <User id:123>
# load the JSON needed to find the object
json = user.finder_json
# => { class_name: "Account", id: 456, embedded: { collection: "users", id: 123 } }
User.find_by_json(json)
# => <User id:123>You can also talk directly with our classes:
json = Mongoid::NestedSerialization::Serializer.new(user).to_json
# => { class_name: "Account", id: 456, embedded: { collection: "users", id: 123 } }
Mongoid::NestedSerialization::Finder.find(json)
# => <User id:123>Contributing
