create an empty whitelist of attributes available for mass-assignment for all models

[marcolinux]

Hello,

is there a mongoid equivalent of the activerecord config flag

config.active_record.whitelist_attributes = true

in Mongoid?

I found a fairly old post on the group, but I could not find a clear answer nor example.

What AR is doing is not very special (basically passing nil to Active Model if my understanding is correct).

ActiveSupport.on_load(:active_record) do

        if app.config.active_record.delete(:whitelist_attributes)

          attr_accessible(nil)

        end

        app.config.active_record.each do |k,v|

          send "#{k}=", v

        end

      end

As Mongoid is very tight to Active Model, it should be possible to implement a similar configuration parameter.

Thanks,

Marco

Hi Marco,

here is my simple approach to this: https://gist.github.com/1977438

I'd appreciate a configuration option in Mongoid, too :)

Thanks a lot Benedikt,

I will integrate your suggestion waiting for configuration options.

I like 'simple approaches' :-)

Regards,

Marco

I use a very similar approach to Benedikt's, and it's working beautifully for me.
