Developers who would like to contribute to the library will need to clone it and initialize the project dependencies with Composer:
$ git clone https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-php-library.git
$ cd mongo-php-library
$ composer update
In addition to installing project dependencies, Composer will check that the required extension version is installed. Directions for installing the extension may be found here. Composer will also install the submodule required for running spec tests.
Installation directions for Composer may be found in its Getting Started guide.
The library's test suite uses PHPUnit, which is installed through the PHPUnit Bridge dependency by Composer.
The test suite may be executed with:
$ composer run test
The phpunit.xml.dist
file is used as the default configuration file for the
test suite. In addition to various PHPUnit options, it defines environment
variables such as MONGODB_URI
and MONGODB_DATABASE
. You may customize
this configuration by creating your own phpunit.xml
file based on the
phpunit.xml.dist
file we provide. To run the tests in serverless mode, set the
MONGODB_IS_SERVERLESS
environment variable to on
.
To run tests against a cluster that requires authentication, either include the
credentials in the connection string (i.e. MONGODB_URI
) or set the
MONGODB_USERNAME
and MONGODB_PASSWORD
environment variables accordingly.
Note that MONGODB_USERNAME
and MONGODB_PASSWORD
will override any
credentials present in the connection string.
The test suite references the following environment variables:
MONGODB_DATABASE
: Default database to use in tests. Defaults tophplib_test
.MONGODB_PASSWORD
: If specified, this value will be appended as thepassword
URI option for clients constructed by the test suite, which will override any credentials in the connection string itself.MONGODB_URI
: Connection string. Defaults tomongodb://127.0.0.1/
, which assumes a MongoDB server is listening on localhost port 27017.MONGODB_USERNAME
: If specified, this value will be appended as theusername
URI option for clients constructed by the test suite, which will override any credentials in the connection string itself.
The following environment variable is used for stable API testing:
API_VERSION
: If defined, this value will be used to construct aMongoDB\Driver\ServerApi
, which will then be specified as theserverApi
driver option for clients created by the test suite.
The following environment variable is used for serverless testing:
MONGODB_IS_SERVERLESS
: Specify a true boolean string (see:FILTER_VALIDATE_BOOLEAN
) ifMONGODB_URI
points to a serverless instance. Defaults to false.
The following environment variables are used for load balancer testing:
MONGODB_SINGLE_MONGOS_LB_URI
: Connection string to a load balancer backed by a single mongos host.MONGODB_MULTI_MONGOS_LB_URI
: Connection string to a load balancer backed by multiple mongos hosts.
The following environment variables are used for CSFLE testing:
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
AWS_TEMP_ACCESS_KEY_ID
AWS_TEMP_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
AWS_TEMP_SESSION_TOKEN
AZURE_TENANT_ID
AZURE_CLIENT_ID
AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET
CRYPT_SHARED_LIB_PATH
: If defined, this value will be used to set thecryptSharedLibPath
autoEncryption driver option for clients created by the test suite.GCP_EMAIL
GCP_PRIVATE_KEY
KMIP_ENDPOINT
KMS_ENDPOINT_EXPIRED
KMS_ENDPOINT_WRONG_HOST
KMS_ENDPOINT_REQUIRE_CLIENT_CERT
KMS_TLS_CA_FILE
KMS_TLS_CERTIFICATE_KEY_FILE
Tests from the MongoDB Specifications repository are included through a
submodule and updated automatically through Dependabot. To update tests
manually, switch to the tests/specifications
directory and update the
repository to the appropriate commit. Remember to commit this change to the
library repository.
Failures on updates can occur for multiple reasons, and the remedy to this will depend on the type of failure. Note that only tests for implemented specifications are run in the test runner.
- If a specification is not fully implemented (e.g. a recent change to the spec has not been applied yet), skip the test in question with a reference to the ticket that covers the change
- If a test fails because it uses features not yet implemented in the unified test runner, skip the corresponding test with a reference to the ticket that covers implementing the new features
- If the test failure points to a bug in the spec, consider the effort required to fix the failure. If it's a small change, commit and push the fix directly to the pull request. Otherwise, skip the test with a reference to a ticket to fix the failing test.
The goal is that the library passes tests with the latest spec version at all times, either by implementing small changes quickly, or by skipping tests as necessary.
Before submitting a pull request, please ensure that your code adheres to the coding standards and passes static analysis checks.
$ composer run checks
The library's code is checked using PHP_CodeSniffer,
which is installed as a development dependency by Composer. To check the code
for style errors, run the phpcs
binary:
$ vendor/bin/phpcs
To automatically fix all fixable errors, use the phpcbf
binary:
$ vendor/bin/phpcbf
The library uses psalm to run static analysis on the code
and ensure an additional level of type safety. New code is expected to adhere
to level 1, with a baseline covering existing issues. To run static analysis
checks, run the psalm
binary:
$ vendor/bin/psalm
To remove fixed errors from the baseline, you can use the update-baseline
command-line argument:
$ vendor/bin/psalm --update-baseline
Note that this will not add new errors to the baseline. New errors should be
fixed instead of being added to the technical debt, but in case this isn't
possible it can be added to the baseline using set-baseline
:
$ vendor/bin/psalm --set-baseline=psalm-baseline.xml
The library uses rector to refactor the code for new features.
To run automatic refactoring, use the rector
command:
$ vendor/bin/rector
New rules can be added to the rector.php
configuration file.
Documentation for the library is maintained by the MongoDB docs team and is kept in the mongodb/docs-php-library repository.
The releases are created by the maintainers of the library. The process is documented in the RELEASING.md file.
