I’d like to use the addToSet method of MongoDB, but Mongoid doesn’t currently support this yet. Is there a way of directly accessing the MongoDB driver from my Rails model?

    I asked this question on Mongoid group and this was the best response:

    Assuming your model object is a Mongoid::Document, simply call the
    “db” method on it to get a handle to the Mongo::DB object that Mongoid
    is using under the hood.

    http://rdoc.info/github/mongoid/mongoid/master/Mongoid/Collections/Cl…

    From there, you can use the MongoDB Ruby driver API directly.

    http://api.mongodb.org/ruby/current/file.TUTORIAL.html#

    Also, you can access the record collection using ModelName.collection.
