I need help in referencing the name of each individual database attached to a MongoDB instance. I just want to connect to a database with PHP and list the names of all the databases.
In the code below I can connect to MongoDB instance and find all the databases. I need to extract the name of the databases to place them in a list box and then to do the same for all the collections within each database. First I need to know is how to reference the name of the databases I see when the following code is used.
I have tried various version of [$showField = $databaseInfo->name;, $showField = $databaseInfo[name];] but I don’t know the correct grammar and would appreciate help.
// This path should point to Composer's autoloader
require_once __DIR__ . "/vendor/autoload.php";
// Find if we can connect to a Mongo instance
// Find all the Databasses on this Mongo instance
$client = new MongoDB\Client;
if ($client) {
echo (" Made a connection");
}
// Count databases
$i = 0;
/* listDatabases() returns an iterator of MongoDB\Model\DatabaseInfo objects */
foreach ($client->listDatabases() as $databaseInfo) {
var_dump($databaseInfo);
$i++;
/*
$showField = $databaseInfo->name;
echo $showField;
*/
}
?>
Here is my system:
