Mongo Base Class for Zend Framework

About

This is a base class for MongoDB written for Zend Framework models. It is for use where a model file will be created for a collection in Mongo. It gives an Active Directory way of manipulating objects.

This class uses late static binding, so PHP 5.3 is required

Let me know if this is file is useful for you!

Installation

  • Create a directory in your application's Library directory named "Mongo" and place the ModelBase.php file in it.
  • Change the connection settings in ModelBase.php file to match your MongoDB settings.
  • Create a model class that inherits the base class

Example Usage

I created a Visitor model in Zend Framework for basic analytics:

class Model_Visitor extends Mongo_ModelBase {
    // You can set the collection name explicitly, or it will auto generate 
    // by the name of your model (e.g. Model_Visitor would be the 
    // "visitor" collection
    public static $_collectionName = "visitor";
}

Then when I need to create a new visitor I simply create a new instance of my model:

$myVisitor = new Model_Visitor();

$myVisitor->ipAddress = "55.55.55.55";
$myVisitor->browser = "Firefox";
$myVisitor->save();

Use the dot notation to access and set nested elements These two commands do the same thing:

$myVisitor->{'referrer.url'} = "www.google.com";
$myVisitor->referrer = array("url"=>"www.google.com");

Load one visitor

$myLoadedVisitor = Model_Visitor::findOne();

Load all visitors

$visitorArray = Model_Visitor::find();

Find visitors by IP

$visitorArray = Model_Visitor::find(array("ip"=>"55.5.5.5"));
