Compatibility with Mongoid 5

[Mohakjuneja]

Hi there! I'm using mongoid 5. The gem is not compatible with it. Is anyone actively maintaining this gem or should we look for alternatives?

I'm using this gem, if you can raise a PR for Mongoid 5 compatibility would be great.

@johnnyshields I'm sorry but I have never raised a PR. If you could guide me, I'd be glad to do it. Thanks

[johnnyshields]

@Mohakjuneja there are many guides online for this. Please google.

I've forked the repository but I do not know what changes in the code would solve the compatibility issue. Which file would you suggest me to start? Thank you for your patience.

A start should be to extend https://github.com/tbpro/mongoid_userstamp/blob/master/Gemfile#L5-L12 and https://github.com/tbpro/mongoid_userstamp/blob/master/.travis.yml#L13-L14 to extend the tests to mongoid 5. I have not followed mongoid for a long time as I'm not using mongo in any project anymore, so I don't know what made it incompatible.

MONGOID_VERSION="~> 5.0" bundle exec spec should run the specs with your mongoid version.

So for some reason the created_by_id and updated_by_id attributes are still not being saved along the object after updating the travis.yml and Gemfile.
Can you take a look at this and see what could be the problem?

@Mohakjuneja you're going to have to debug this yourself. Please write a test case that reproduces the issue.

Any progress with this

[Mohakjuneja]

@sahilchopra None at my end. I'll try and publish a test case this week

Thank you!

Right now this Gem is not working with mongoid 5.
