mongoid-eager-loading adds the eager loading feature for mongoid.
Originally it is my pull request for mongoid, but it is not accepted yet, so I created this gem to get the eager loading benefits easily for my projects.
I only test it in mongoid-2.0.0.beta.19, maybe you can try it on other mongoid version, and let me know if it works fine.
define it in your Gemfile
gem "mongoid-eager-loading"
suppose you have a mongoid model Post
class Post
include Mongoid::Document
referenced_in :user
references_many :comments
end
then you can use the eager loading like
Post.includes(:user)
Post.includes(:user, :comments)
eager loading can be only used on referenced_in, references_one and references_many associations.
I also run a benchmark on my local computer, the result is as follows
