Description
Hi. I'm working on a rails project using the Neo4j ORM which tries to mimic ActiveRecord, but doesn't use ActiveRecord. GET-ing things works fine, but as soon as I want to POST I get errors.
I've started using 0.8.0.beta1 to overcome the ActiveRecordOperationsProcessor issues fixed in #192, but have run into a new error uninitialized constant JSONAPI::ActsAsResourceController::ActiveRecord in ActsAsResourceController line 84
As I was writing this I just realised I can monkey patch with the following, but this probably isn't a good long term solution. It seems to be working with very minimal testing though.
module JSONAPI
module ActsAsResourceController
def transaction
lambda { |&block|
Neo4j::Transaction.run do |tx|
block.yield
end
}
end
def rollback
lambda {
fail tx.mark_failed
}
end
end
end
Does anyone have any advice on this situation? Is this an issue for other non ActiveRecord ORM's.
Thanks for your help.

Research direction
Start at lib/jsonapi/acts_as_resource_controller.rb line 84 and inspect how transaction and rollback depend on ActiveRecord. Reproduce a POST using the Neo4j ORM, then compare the controller's transaction behavior with the monkey patch shown in the issue. Done means POST requests work without referencing an ActiveRecord constant.
