ActiveAdmin Collection Names
I have an array of roles in my model:
ROLES = ['super_admin', 'user', 'user_admin']
I have an ActiveAdmin form that shows these roles:
input :roles, as: :check_boxes, collection: User::ROLES
I have to show the roles as humanized, capitalized names instead of snake case on the form:
Super Admin, Salesman, Sales Admin
but when one of them is selected, it has to be saved in snakecase.
I've tried this:
User::ROLES
.map { |r| "#{r.humanize}" }
.map { |r| r.split.map(&:capitalize).join(' ') }
but this saves the role as the humanized, capitalized form instead of the snake case form. How can I use the humanized, capitalized version of the words on the form, but save the snake case version?

You can use Rails(Active Support) method String#titleize instead split.map(&:capitalize).join(' ')
If you want to store record in DB as snakecase you can do below way: In dropdown option it will be displayed as titalize but it's value will be set as snakecase which will be stored in DB.
> roles.map{|e|[e.titleize, e]}
#=> [["Super Admin", "super_admin"], ["User", "user"], ["User Admin", "user_admin"]]
in activeadmin use:
input :roles, as: :check_boxes, collection: User::ROLES.map{|e|[e.titleize, e]}

So, mapping your array:

#=> [["Super Admin", "super_admin"], ["User", "user"], ["User Admin", "user_admin"]]
Backward (before_save):
"Super Admin".downcase.gsub(' ', '_') #=> "super_admin"
