FactoryGirl: attributes_for not giving me associated attributes

Question

I have a Code model factory like this:

Factory.define :code do |f|
    f.value \"code\"
    f.association :code_type
    f.association(:codeable, :factory =&         


        

Answer 1

This one doesn't return timestamps etc., only attributes that are accessible for mass assignment:

(FactoryGirl.build :position).attributes.symbolize_keys.reject { |key, value| !Position.attr_accessible[:default].collect { |attribute| attribute.to_sym }.include?(key) }

Still, it's quite ugly. I think FactoryGirl should provide something like this out of the box.

I opened a request for this here.
