ClassyEnum is a Ruby on Rails gem that adds class-based enumerator functionality to model attributes. This adaptor works with Mongoid v2.1.0+

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'classy_enum-mongoid'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install classy_enum-mongoid

See the ClassyEnum README for documentation and usage examples.

You can either use the Enum class as a Custom Mongoid field with serialization support using mongoize/demongoize and evolve support for searches.

class AllowBlankBreedDog
  include Mongoid::Document

  field :breed, type: Breed, :enum => {:allow_blank => true}
end

Or you can use the classy_enum_field macro to create the enum field in a more shorthand way.

class AllowNilBreedDog
  include Mongoid::Document
  
  classy_enum_field :breed, :allow_nil => true
end

Enjoy :)
