Using Typeorm with connect-mongo - typeorm

I wanted to know, how can I use connect-mongo with Typeorm?
I tried using things like, typeorm-store, but they are confusing and did not work.
Does anyone know how to do that?

rails with mongoid - is there an analog to .loaded?

In a rails / mysql app, there is a method that lets you check if an associated object has been loaded, or if your referencing it will trigger a database query:
a = Author.first
b.books.loaded?
But in mongoid, there is no such method. Is there another method in mongoid that does something similar?
Thanks for any help.
The method is
_loaded?
For some reason SO demands I add more filler, even though the above is the correct answer, so here you go. Here's the opening line from The Great Gatsby, which I love:
In my younger and more vulnerable years my father gave me some advice
that I’ve been turning over in my mind ever since. “Whenever you
feel like criticizing any one,” he told me, “just remember that
all the people in this world haven’t had the advantages that you’ve had.”

ZF2 - ZF1 - database

I just switched from ZF1 to ZF2 and I'm missing a few features or I#M just not able to find them. For example in ZF1 I was able to define references between tables extending Zend_Db_Table_Abstract or I was able to get e.g. images for a tag using the find<XYZ>Via<xyz>()method. Is there something similar in ZF2?
No, there is nothing similar like this in ZF2.
With ZF2, the maintainers of Zend\Db have taken a step back as far as ORM-Functionalities are concerned. You still have the implementation of Zend\Db\TableGateway but there is no longer any more magic happening than that.
However, there are Modules / Technologies out there, that do the Job better than Zend_Db ever did. Namely you'd want to be looking into Doctrine. All Doctrine-Functionalities are available via DoctrineModule and DoctrineORMModule.

Rails 3 Autocomplete - Suggesting Alternatives?

I'm current using Rails 3 autocomplete in an application, but I'd like to know if there is any way to allow the app to make suggestions based on misspelled words.
For example, 'Saving Pirvaet Ryan' would still suggest 'Saving Private Ryan'.
Any suggestions?
It seems to me that what you are looking for is a fulltext search. While I personally haven't touched it yet, you might want to check out Sphinx/Thinking Sphinx, or Solr/Sunspot
EDIT Ok, I read too fast, this doesn't seem to fit what you're asking. Still leaving this here in case it can help anyone.

Anyone using ruby-protobuf and ActiveRecord

I am using googles protocol buffers, ruby-protobuf, with rails and ActiveRecord. The protocol itself seems like a good choice, especially since we are connecting to mobile devices. Its a very compact format.
The issues arise when having to go from proto objects to ActiveRecord objects and vice versa. Seems like there is a lot of extra work here. I would like it to work similar to the way ruby-amf works.
Anyone see this done before?
...or think there would be interest in starting work on a plugin for rails?
We did a similar thing in our project. We wrote some code to convert proto_buf to rails params hash. From there we can then access any value through params and the model can take in params. The code is not really pretty but does the job.

Does MongoMapper (or any other Mongodb adapter) have a method like "accepts_nested_attributes_for"?

I'm considering using mongodb on a new project, but before delving in, I'd like to know if it supports some key features. I know you don't need migrations, and you can add embedded objects,...but does all that mean it also behaves as if the 'accepts_nested_attributes_for' method is always there?
Do you know of any other killer features that I should be aware of that would sway me for or against MongoDB?
Here's a recent article I'm aware of, and that others may also be interested in:

Looks like the mongomapper guy is working on a solution to this:
