Bulk update back-end

[adrianthedev]

Context

We'd like to enable users to bulk-update records from the Index page.
We need a back-end for it.

Approach

Create a BulkUpdateController which will take in a payload and update those records accordingly.

• execute field validation from the model (Rails should do it for us)
• accepted params should be verified
  • fields marked as disabled should not be updated
• ensure the values are updated through fill_field method for every field

Possible payload this controller action can take:

{
  payload: [
    {
      param: "user_12o3211o3i3h" # or just the id
      resource_type: Avo::Resources::User,
      body: {
        first_name: "John",
        age: 33
      }
    },
    {
      param: "user_k3k6no2i" # or just the id
      resource_type: Avo::Resources::User,
      body: {
        first_name: "John",
        age: 33
      }
    },
    {
      param: 123
      resource_type: Avo::Resources::Post,
      body: {
        title: "What a great day",
        body: "# Lorem ipsum"
        user_id: "user_12o3211o3i3h"
      }
    }
  ]
}
