the Best way to use Laravel with Nosql Mongodb

#laravel #mongodb #php

Alt Text

1 -The first step we need to sure we installed Mongodb in the global environment on the PC.

2 - Installation

if ready I will be run in my project this command

 "$ composer require jenssegers/mongodb"
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

3-Laravel

In case your Laravel version does NOT autoload the packages, add the service provider to config/app.php:

Jenssegers\Mongodb\MongodbServiceProvider::class,
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

4- Configuration

You can use MongoDB either as the main database, either as a side database. To do so, add a new MongoDB connection to config/database.php:

     'mongodb' => [
        'driver' => 'mongodb',
        'host' => env('MONGO_DB_HOST','localhost'),
        'port' => env('MONGO_DB_PORT'),
        'database' => env('MONGO_DB_DATABASE'),
        'username' => env('MONGO_DB_USERNAME'),
        'password' => env('MONGO_DB_PASSWORD'),
        'options' => []
     ],
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

if need to used DSN :

    'mongodb' => [
        'driver' => 'mongodb',
        'dsn' => env('MONGO_DB_DSN'),
        'database' => env('MONGO_DB_DATABASE'),
    ]
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

5 - env File '.env'

     MONGO_DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
     MONGO_DB_PORT=27017
     MONGO_DB_DATABASE={my_db}
     MONGO_DB_USERNAME={my_user}
     MONGO_DB_PASSWORD={my_password}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

if need to used DSN :

    MONGO_DB_DSN= {my_link_dsn}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
