Hinweis: On Unix platforms, the MongoDB driver is sensitive to scripts that use the fork() system call without also calling exec(). Users are advised not to re-use MongoDB\Driver\Manager instances in a forked child process.
All versions of the driver since 1.2.0 persist the » libmongoc client object in the PHP worker process, which allows it to re-use database connections, authentication states, and topology information across multiple requests.
When MongoDB\Driver\Manager::__construct() is invoked, a hash is created from its arguments (i.e. URI string and array options). The driver will attempt to find a previously persisted » libmongoc client object for that hash. If an existing client cannot be found for the hash, a new client will be created (and persisted for future use).
Each client contains its own database connections and a view of the server topology (e.g. standalone, replica set, shard cluster). By persisting the client between PHP requests, the driver is able to re-use established database connections and remove the need for » discovering the server topology on each request.
Consider the following example:
<?php
$managers = [
new MongoDB\Driver\Manager('mongodb://127.0.0.1'),
new MongoDB\Driver\Manager('mongodb://127.0.0.1'),
new MongoDB\Driver\Manager('mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017'),
new MongoDB\Driver\Manager('mongodb://rs1.example.com,rs2.example.com/', ['replicaSet' => 'myReplicaSet']),
];
foreach ($managers as $manager) {
$manager->executeCommand('test', new MongoDB\Driver\Command(['ping' => 1]));
}
?>
The first two Manager objects will share the same
» libmongoc client since
their constructor arguments are identical. The third and fourth objects will
each use their own client. In total, three clients will be created and the
PHP worker executing this script will open two connections to
127.0.0.1 and one connection to each of
rs1.example.com and rs2.example.com.
If the driver discovers additional members of the replica set after issuing
isMaster commands, it will open additional connections to
those servers as well.
If the same worker executes the script again in a second request, the three
clients will be re-used and no new connections should be made. Depending on
how long ago the previous request was served, the driver may need to issue
additional isMaster commands to update its view of the
topologies.
Versions of the PHP driver before 1.2.0 utilize PHP's Streams API for database connections, using an API within » libmongoc to designate custom handlers for socket communication; however, a new libmongoc client is created for each MongoDB\Driver\Manager. As a result, the driver persists individual database connections but not authentication state or topology information. This means that the driver needs to issue commands at the start of each request to authenticate and » discover the server topology.
Database connections are persisted by a hash derived from the server's host, port, and the URI string used to construct the MongoDB\Driver\Manager. The constructor's array options are not included in this hash.
Hinweis: Versions of the driver >= 1.1.8 and < 1.2.0 do not persist sockets for SSL connections. See » PHPC-720 for additional information.
Despite its shortcomings with persisting SSL connections when and topology information, this version of the driver supports all SSL context options since it uses PHP's Streams API.
