Discussion for Polymorphic Selects in Rails using GlobalIDs
This is fantastic Chris thank you, I'm curious how this would work for the edit view of the form?
You'll need to set the expires_in: nil parameter to have idempotent signed ids generated.
Document.find(5).to_sgid(expires_in: nil)
Documented here https://github.com/rails/globalid
This way your browser will be able to display the currently selected value from the list of options.
Chris, I usually don’t want to leak IDs so I use uuid columns for that, and also change to_param to return the uuid. Do you also think this is a suitable replacement for that use case?
