Installation

To build and install the driver:

phpize
./configure
make
sudo make install

Then, add the following to your php.ini file:

extension=mongo.so

Enabling enterprise features

To connect to MongoDB Enterprise using SASL (GSSAPI) or LDAP (PLAIN) you need to build the driver against cyrus-sasl2 (external library). This is done by passing --with-mongo-sasl to ./configure, optionally passing in the directory to where cyrus-sasl2 was installed:

phpize
./configure --with-mongo-sasl=/usr/local
make
sudo make install

Installing on Windows

Windows builds are available through http://pecl.php.net/package/mongo.

Builds for older driver versions may be found through https://s3.amazonaws.com/drivers.mongodb.org/php/index.html.

Each driver release includes various builds to support specific versions of PHP and Windows. Select the correct DLL file for your environment, and add the following to your php.ini file (VERSION will vary by environment):

extension=php_mongo-VERSION.dll

If the DLL is not located within the directory specified by the extension_dir INI setting, you may need to specify its full path.

Documentation

See the PHP manual.

Support / Feedback

For issues with, questions about, or feedback for the PHP driver, please look into our support channels. Please do not email any of the PHP driver developers directly with issues or questions—you're more likely to get an answer on the mongodb-user list on Google Groups.

Bugs / Feature Requests

Think you have found a bug? Want to see a new feature in the driver? Please open a case in our issue management tool, JIRA:

• Create an account and login (https://jira.mongodb.org).
• Navigate to the PHP project.
• Click Create Issue - Please provide as much information as possible about the issue type and how to reproduce it.

Bug reports in JIRA for all driver projects, as well as for the MongoDB server project, are public. Please do not add private information to bug reports.

Security Vulnerabilities

If you’ve identified a security vulnerability in a driver or any other MongoDB project, please report it according to the instructions here.

Testing

The tests are not available as part of the PECL package, but they are available on Github.

See CONTRIBUTING.md for how to run and create new tests.
