Getting Started with MongoDB and PHP

This is MongoDB PHP quick start. It was written in conjunction with this article.

Status as of February 24, 2021

Under development... incomplete. Stay tuned.

Prerequisites

You'll need the following installed on your computer to follow along with this tutorial:

  • MacOS Catalina or Later - You can run PHP on earlier versions but I'll be keeping to MacOS for this tutorial.
  • Homebrew Package Manager - The missing package manager for MacOS.
  • PECL - The repository for PHP Extensions.
  • A code editor of your choice. I recommend Visual Studio Code.

This repo <https://github.com/mongodb-developer/php-quickstart>__ and the associated article are decidedly macOS focused. PHP is definitely supported across a number of platforms however, I am only currently focusing on macOS. Should there be great interest in expanding the platform coverage, I'll consider cover those.
