The official high-level MongoDB PHP library built on top of the low-level mongodb PHP extension. It provides Client, Database, and Collection abstractions with a full-featured API for CRUD operations, index management, and common database commands.

Use cases

• connect to mongodb from php
• perform crud operations on mongodb collections in php
• manage mongodb indexes and collections from php
• use mongodb with a php web application
• query mongodb documents with a high-level php api

When to choose

• you are building a PHP application backed by MongoDB and want a full-featured driver API
• you need client, database, and collection abstractions beyond what the raw mongodb extension offers
• you want an officially supported, actively maintained MongoDB library for PHP

When to avoid

• your project does not use MongoDB as its database
• you only need the minimal command/query API and want to avoid the extra abstraction layer
• you are not using PHP or cannot install the required mongodb extension
