Sequel VS Mongoid

Thea answer to your prayers already exists: http://sequel.jeremyevans.net/.

By far the best database toolkit (ORM, query builder, migration engine) I have seen for any programming language.

Ruby sequel (http://sequel.jeremyevans.net/) is the only library where you can combine classic ORM Model bases usage, with a more raw query builder "just get me all the data into plain objects". You'll never need anything again in your career life.

If you want a db tool which can be an ORM for your app, and drop down to a lower level dsl, while targeting specific features of the databases it supports, + having a "composable superset for building queries", there's [ruby sequel](http://sequel.jeremyevans.net/), which is the best tool of the kind you'll get for any proglang. Everything the author wants, minus the typrchecking perhaps, which is IMO shooting at the stars.

I love the Sequel library from Jeremy Evans (so much better than Rails' AREL). I've used it as my ORM-of-choice since 2008. When leveraging Sequel I almost always use the DSL, but there are times that I want to use bare SQL. When that happens, I almost always use HEREDOCs and my own version of String#squish.

sequel is a pretty good option! To use the above snowflake adapter for sequel, you'll have to learn to use sequel (which is pretty easy). https://sequel.jeremyevans.net/

I've been on the Roda [0] and Sequel [1] framework for over 10 years now across various projects. Even after all these years, starting a project in this stack feels like a breath of fresh air even compared to the newer language/frameworks that jabe come out since.

Jeremy Evans is the creator and maintainer of both of these Ruby gems and is super helpful in resolving ask kinda of issues.

Please allow me to introduce Sequel (https://sequel.jeremyevans.net/) for your consideration.

Even though Rodauth is built on top of Roda and Sequel, it can work as a Rack middleware in any Ruby web framework. In the beginning, there was a demo app showing how Rodauth can be used in Rails, which leveraged the (now discontinued) roda-rails gem. However, the integration felt fairly raw, and definitely lacked the ergonomics Rails developers are used to.

The changelog for 7.1 (https://github.com/mongodb/mongoid/blob/master/docs/release-...) even explicitly call this out as a breaking change:

*Breaking change:* In Mongoid 7.1, when condition methods are invoked on a

The mongoid repository (https://github.com/mongodb/mongoid) doesn't have issues turned on and instead points people to JIRA. That's one way to avoid users reporting issues like this - I'd see JIRA and "nope" right out.
