1.2.0alpha3

The PHP team is happy to announce that version 1.2.0alpha3 of our new mongodb PHP extension is now available on PECL.

Release Highlights

This is the third preview release for 1.2.0 and resolves a handful of outstanding issues for MongoDB 3.4 compatibility.

MongoDB\Driver\Query, MongoDB\Driver\BulkWrite::update(), and MongoDB\Driver\BulkWrite::delete() now accept a "collation" document option, which can be used to specify a locale-aware string comparison or sort order (see: SERVER-1920 for additional information). MongoDB\Driver\ReadPreference now supports a "maxStalenessMS" integer option, which can be used with modes other than "primary" to specify an acceptable replication delay for secondary servers (see: SERVER-12861). The "maxStalenessMS" option may also be used in the connection URI or options array provided to MongoDB\Driver\Manager to configure the default read preference.

This release upgrades our libbson and libmongoc dependencies to 1.5.0-rc0. The final 1.2.0 release is expected to depend on libson and libmongoc 1.5.0.
