In our public API, we use a UUID for record identifiers, however our primary key internally is the default incrementing integer in Postgres. I’d like to submit a PR that adds an option to accepts_nested_attributes_for
that would change which key is being queried on, but doesn’t require a change of primary_key
in the model.
Would this get accepted? If so, I’m interested in opinions on a good name for the option. Could be as simple as :primary_key
, similar to how belongs_to
has an option for :primary_key
which does not require a primary key change in the associated model.
