How to query data from MongoDB using PHP?

@addison 

To query data from MongoDB using PHP, you can use the MongoDB PHP Library, which provides a set of classes and methods for working with MongoDB databases.

Here's an example of how to query data from MongoDB using PHP:

1. Connect to the MongoDB server:

1

$client = new MongoDBClient("mongodb://localhost:27017");

1. Select the database and collection you want to query:

1

$collection = $client->mydatabase->mycollection;

1. Define the query parameters:

1

$query = ['age' => 25];

This query will search for documents where the "age" field equals 25.

1. Execute the query:

1

$result = $collection->find($query);

This will return a cursor object that you can iterate over to retrieve the matching documents.

1. Process the results:

1
2
3
4
5

foreach ($result as $document) {
    // Do something with each document
    echo $document['_id'] . "
";
}

In this example, we're just printing the _id field of each matching document.

Note that this is just a basic example, and there are many more options and features available in the MongoDB PHP Library. You can refer to the official documentation for more information and examples.
