mongo deprecated in favor of mongoDB

[jdchmiel]

With the change from:
http://php.net/manual/en/book.mongo.php
to:
http://php.net/manual/en/set.mongodb.php
and no support for the legacy driver in PHP7 has any effort been made to port to the new driver?

I suspect not many people have bothered to upgrade Magento 1.9.x to run on PHP7 or HHVM but it cannot hurt to ask before I dive in.

Magento's requirements for Magento 1.X is PHP 5.5. So we did not test our module with PHP7 or HHVM.

But feel free to do it and communicate your results.

Best regards,

I did it. It seems to work, though it does not yet solve my problem of writing data to Magento faster. Owell. Please feel free to browse my fork and I can make a PR for you if you would like to make a php7 branch.

Hello @jdchmiel and sorry for the loooong delay.

Feel free to make a PR and we will publish a PHP7 branch here because it looks like somebody else are looking for it.

Regards,
