## 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](http://www.php.net/manual/en/ini.core.php#ini.extension-dir) INI
setting, you may need to specify its full path.
## Documentation
See [the PHP manual](http://php.net/mongo).
## How To Ask For Help
When asking for support, or while providing feedback in the form of bugs or
feature requestes, please include the following relevant information:
- Detailed steps on how to reproduce the problem, including a script that
reproduces your problem, if possible.
- The exact PHP version used. You can find this by running `php -v` on the
command line, or by checking the output of `phpinfo();` in a script
requested through a web server.
- The exact version of the MongoDB driver for PHP. You can find this by
running `php --ri mongo | grep Version` on the command line, or by running
a script containing `<?php echo phpversion("mongo"); ?>`.
- The operating system and version (e.g. Windows 7, OSX 10.8, ...).
- How you installed the driver, either via your distribution's package
management, with "brew", with an \*AMP installation package, or through a
manual source compile and install.
- With connection and replica set selection issues, please also provide a
full debug log. See further down on how to make one.
### Support / Feedback
For issues with, questions about, or feedback for the PHP driver, please look
into our [support channels](http://www.mongodb.org/about/support). 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](http://groups.google.com/group/mongodb-user) 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).
- [Create a new issue](https://jira.mongodb.org/secure/CreateIssue!default.jspa?pid=10007).
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](http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/create-a-vulnerability-report).
## Testing
The tests are not available as part of the PECL package, but they are available
on [Github](http://www.github.com/mongodb/mongo-php-driver/tree/master/tests).
See [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md) for how to run and create new tests.
## Full debug log
You can make a full debug log by using the following code:
```php
<?php
/*
* This script will catch all internal driver logging for MongoDB and log them
* to a file /tmp/MONGO-PHP-LOG.<unix-timestamp>. This log will give the
* driver developers more or less all the information they'll need to debug
* this issue
*/
function module2string($module)
{
switch ($module) {
case MongoLog::RS: return "REPLSET";
case MongoLog::CON: return "CON";
case MongoLog::IO: return "IO";
case MongoLog::SERVER: return "SERVER";
case MongoLog::PARSE: return "PARSE";
default: return $module;
}
}
function level2string($level)
{
switch ($level) {
case MongoLog::WARNING: return "WARN";
case MongoLog::INFO: return "INFO";
case MongoLog::FINE: return "FINE";
default: return $level;
}
}
function logMongo($module, $level, $message, $save = false) {
static $log = "";
$log .= sprintf("%s | %s (%s): %s\n", date('Y-m-d H:i:s',time()), module2string($module), level2string($level), $message);
if ($save) {
file_put_contents("/tmp/MONGO-PHP-LOG." . time(), $log);
$log = "";
}
}
function saveMongoLogException($ex) {
if ($ex instanceof MongoException) {
$msg = sprintf("Uncaught exception: %s, %s\n", get_class($ex), $ex->getMessage());
logMongo(get_class($ex), "ERROR", $ex->getMessage(), true);
}
throw $ex;
}
function saveMongoLog() {
logMongo("EXIT", "EXIT", "EXIT", true);
}
MongoLog::setLevel(MongoLog::ALL);
MongoLog::setModule(MongoLog::ALL);
MongoLog::setCallback("logMongo");
register_shutdown_function("saveMongoLog");
/* If an global exception handler is used, or a default exception handler is
* already registered, please comment out this line and put into your catch
* block: saveMongoLogException($exception); */
set_exception_handler("saveMongoLogException");
?>
```
