1.0.0beta1

The PHP team is happy to announce that version 1.0.0-beta1 of our new "mongodb" PHP extension is now available on PECL.

Release Highlights

The behavior of Manager::getServers() has been changed to only return servers in known states (e.g. it returns nothing before initial discovery of a replica set). Additionally, Server::executeQuery() and Server::executeCommand() now take an optional ReadPreference argument.

This release also bumps our libmongoc dependency to 1.2.0-beta1.

Documentation

Feedback

As the "mongodb" extension is under heavy development, we would appreciate any feedback you might have on the project:
https://jira.mongodb.org/secure/CreateIssue.jspa?pid=12484&issuetype=6

Installation

You can either download and install the source manually, or you can install the extension with:

pecl install mongodb-beta

or update with:

pecl upgrade mongodb-beta

Windows binaries are available on PECL:
http://pecl.php.net/package/mongodb

1.0.0alpha2

The PHP team is happy to announce that version 1.0.0-alpha2 of our new "mongodb" PHP extension is now available on PECL.

This release addresses a Windows build error and is otherwise functionally identical to 1.0.0-alpha1.

Release Highlights

This release includes many fixes and improvements to our BSON and Object Document Serialization (ODS) functionality. Most importantly, BSON documents are now deserialized as stdClass instances by default. Custom classes and basic PHP arrays, for users preferring the legacy driver's behavior, may also be used. We hope to have more comprehensive documentation on this subject available on PHP.net soon, but examples of this functionality can be found in the extension's test suite in the meantime.

The namespace for all BSON functions and classes has been renamed from "BSON" to "MongoDB\BSON", which means all code within the extension now falls under a top-level "MongoDB" namespace. Additionally, we have renamed to toArray() and fromArray() functions to toPHP() and fromPHP(), respectively.

Some notable performance improvements in this release include coalescing bulk update/delete operations for less round trips and buffering small writes for more efficient network IO.

We have also bumped the minimum supported PHP version to 5.4 (from 5.3 in our earlier releases).

We've moved all of the exception classes out of the primary MongoDB\Driver\ namespace and over to MongoDB\Driver\Exception\. This should make the documentation more readable and improves organization of the project's code.

New features and changes:

• PHPC-272: Exceptions moved to MongoDB\Driver\Exception
• PHPC-284: MongoDB\Driver\Exception\LogicException created

Fixes:

• PHPC-274: BSON\Seriaizable ignored for top-level documents
• PHPC-275: BSON\Serializable::unserialize() should throw exception on invalid return argument
