      Am using Nokogiri and mongoid in a test project here's my code:

      urls = Array[
        'http://www.xxx-xxx-xxx.com/cairo',
        'http://www.xxx-xxx-xxx.com/alexandria',
      ]
      
      urls.each do |url|
        doc = Nokogiri::HTML(open(url))
        #Theater and location details here
      
        #movies scrapper starts here
        movies = doc.css('.itemContainer')
      
        movies.each do |movie|
      
        #movie title
        title = movie.css("h3.catItemTitle a").text
      
        #More code here    
      
        #movie synopsis
        synopsis = movie.css(".catItemIntroText p").text
      
        Movie.create! {
          {title: title}
          {synopsis: synopsis }
          #{movielength: movielength }
          #embedded theater collection
            {theaters: {theater: theater,
                   address: address 
                  }
              }
        }
       end   
      end
      

      My mongoid models look like this:

      require 'mongoid'
      
      class Movie
        include Mongoid::Document
      
        field :title, :type => String
        field :synopsis, :type => String
      
        attr_accessible :title, :synopsis
      
        embeds_many :theaters
      end
      

      When i run the nokogiri script only the mongodb objectid gets saved and the field details are not created or saved. Here's a sample of my database.

      ] }

      { "_id" : ObjectId("52be9b3c4cfad19f0c000011") } { "_id" : ObjectId("52be9b3c4cfad19f0c000012") } { "_id" : ObjectId("52be9b3c4cfad19f0c000013") }

      Everything works well using ruby "puts" to output but saving in mongodb is a hassle. What am i doing wrong? Am using Mongoid (3.1.6) with ruby 1.9.3p448 on mavericks.
