What about mongoid nested models support? about best_in_place HOT 2 CLOSED

Hi @proton. Thanks for your interest, however we have no plans at the moment to make best_in_place specifically support other ORM's apart from ActiveRecord. I do not have experience myself with mongoid, can you tell me what are the patch you need to do to make that work? As for AR concerns, nested models support is as easy as you wrote it:

 best_in_place @post.user, :name, :type => :input

Best in place's work is only to provide a bridge between the view and the controller, why shouldn't it work with that class of syntax?

Of course if you're willing to make that work and all tests pass, I will be glad to accept a pull request!

Hi @proton.

We have updated our Readme on how to use Best In Place for non Active Record environments.

We are not planning to add BIP support for mongoid; nevertheless, you may use our kind of workaround (explained in the Readme) in order to make it work.

Or if you feel brave enough, you can implement it, add the tests, and send us a pull request! :)
