We're running into the issue where polymorphic STI associations do not work correctly. Here is an example, taken from the tests. I've converted project_id on LineItem to subject_id and subject_type, giving us:
class LineItem < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :subject, :polymorphic => true
end
class Product < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :line_items, :as => :subject
end
However, when I try to load a generated LineItem's subject, I get:
#<RemoteLineItem id: 1, quantity: nil, subject_id: 3, invoice_id: nil, created_at: "2014-08-14 22:48:42", updated_at: "2014-08-14 22:48:42", subject_type: "Cars::German::SportsCar">
#<Forceps::Remote::LineItem id: 1, quantity: nil, subject_id: 3, invoice_id: nil, created_at: "2014-08-14 22:48:42", updated_at: "2014-08-14 22:48:42", subject_type: "Cars::German::SportsCar">
# But if I ask the Forceps::Remote::LineItem about its subject_type, I get Forceps::Remote::Cars::German::SportsCar due to reference_remote_class_in_polymorphic_association. But if I ask it for subject, I get:
ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound: Couldn't find Forceps::Remote::Cars::German::SportsCar with id=3 [WHERE "products"."type" IN ('Forceps::Remote::Cars::German::SportsCar')]
Which makes sense because the type in the remote db would be Cars::German::SportsCar. Do I need to copy the subject first, then somehow update reference_remote_class_in_polymorphic_association and make_type_attribute_point_to_local_class_if_needed?
