1.8.0beta1
Pre-releaseThe PHP team is happy to announce that version 1.8.0beta1 of the mongodb PHP extension is now available on PECL.
Release Highlights
This beta release provides support for new features in MongoDB 4.4.
For authentication, this release adds support for the new MONGODB-AWS authentication mechanism. The SCRAM mechanism now supports shorter conversation when authenticating with the server.
The delete
command (and its helpers), delete
operations in bulk writes, as well as findAndDelete
operations now support specifying a hint
option.
For drivers built on top of the extension, there is a new driver
key in the driverOptions
when creating a manager. This can be used to pass custom metadata for use during the server handshake.
As previously announced, this version drops compatibility with PHP 5.6, limiting support to PHP 7.0 and newer.
