Gem Version Test Status Rubocop Status

The mongoid-rspec library provides a collection of RSpec-compatible matchers that help to test Mongoid documents.

Tested against:

  • MRI: 2.6.x, 2.7.x, 3.0.x, 3.1.x, 3.2.x
  • Mongoid: 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

See .github/workflows/rspec.yml for the latest test matrix.

Installation

Drop this line into your Gemfile:

group :test do
  gem 'mongoid-rspec'
end

Compatibility

This gem is compatible with Mongoid 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9.

Configuration

Rails

Add to your rails_helper.rb file

require 'mongoid-rspec'

RSpec.configure do |config|
  config.include Mongoid::Matchers, type: :model
end

Other

Add to your spec_helper.rb file.

require 'mongoid-rspec'

RSpec.configure do |config|
  config.include Mongoid::Matchers
end

Matchers

be_mongoid_document

class Post
  include Mongoid::Document
end

RSpec.describe Post, type: :model do
  it { is_expected.to be_mongoid_document }
end

be_dynamic_document

class User
  include Mongoid::Document
  include Mongoid::Attributes::Dynamic
end

RSpec.describe User, type: :model do
  it { is_expected.to be_dynamic_document }
end

have_timestamps

With full timestamps.

class Log
  include Mongoid::Document
  include Mongoid::Timestamps
end

RSpec.describe Log, type: :model do
  it { is_expected.to have_timestamps }
end

With short timestamps.

class User
  include Mongoid::Document
  include Mongoid::Timestamps::Short
end

RSpec.describe User, type: :model do
  it { is_expected.to have_timestamps.shortened }
end

With only creating or updating timestamps.

class Admin
  include Mongoid::Document
  include Mongoid::Timestamps::Create
  include Mongoid::Timestamps::Update
end

RSpec.describe Admin, type: :model do
  it { is_expected.to have_timestamps.for(:creating) }
  it { is_expected.to have_timestamps.for(:updating) }
end

With short creating or updating timestamps.

class Post
  include Mongoid::Document
  include Mongoid::Timestamps::Create::Short
end

RSpec.describe Short, type: :model do
  it { is_expected.to have_timestamps.for(:creating).shortened }
end

be_stored_in

class Post
  include Mongoid::Document

  store_in database: 'db1', collection: 'messages', client: 'secondary'
end

RSpec.describe Post, type: :model do
  it { is_expected.to be_stored_in(database: 'db1', collection: 'messages', client: 'secondary') }
end

It checks only those options, that you specify. For instance, test in example below will pass, even though expectation contains only database option.

class Comment
  include Mongoid::Document

  store_in database: 'db2', collection: 'messages'
end

RSpec.describe Comment, type: :model do
  it { is_expected.to be_stored_in(database: 'db2') }
end

It works fine with lambdas and procs.

class User
  include Mongoid::Document

  store_in database: ->{ Thread.current[:database] }
end

RSpec.describe Post, type: :model do
  it do
    Thread.current[:database] = 'db3'
    is_expected.to be_stored_in(database: 'db3')

    Thread.current[:database] = 'db4'
    is_expected.to be_stored_in(database: 'db4')
  end
end

have_index_for

class Article
  index({ title: 1 }, { unique: true, background: true })
  index({ title: 1, created_at: -1 })
  index({ category: 1 })
end

RSpec.describe Article, type: :model do
  it do
    is_expected
      .to have_index_for(title: 1)
      .with_options(unique: true, background: true)
  end
  it { is_expected.to have_index_for(title: 1, created_at: -1) }
  it { is_expected.to have_index_for(category: 1) }
end
