Mongoid 9.x monkey patch to temporary return keys in attributes as symbols not strings

[artur79]

Since mongoid 9.x attributes now return hash with strings as the keys. In my app a lot of the code and specs relies on symbol keys. Do you have any example temporary monkey patch to mimic previous behaviour ? What is important I need to work with rspec and factory bot.

This was a major undocumented breaking change in Mongoid 9. The Mongoid team does not yet test their codebase against real-world production-scale apps when they release new versions.

You can apply this as a monkey-patch: #5982

yep, there were some breaking changes 7.5 to 8 :/ Thanks for the monkey-patch :)
