Usage

Associations

SimpleForm does a great job at dealing with associations (f.association helper) but when used in conjunction with Protector, it will not protect the collection used unless you specify it by hand using the :collection option.

This gem will protect the collections that are automatically generated by SimpleForm using the same subject as the object the association belongs to.

In the event where you'd rather not have the automatically generated collection protected, you can set the :protect option to false.

<%= simple_form_for @user do |f| %>
  <%= f.association :company, protect: false %>  # Association scope: `Company.all`
  <%= f.association :roles %>                    # Association scope: `Role.restrict!(@user.protector_subject)`
<% end %>
