The MongoRegex class

(PECL mongo >=0.8.1)

Introduction

This class can be used to create regular expressions. Typically, these expressions will be used to query the database and find matching strings. More unusually, they can be saved to the database and retrieved.

Regular expressions consist of four parts. First a / as starting delimiter, then then pattern, another / and finally a string containing flags.

Example #1 Regular expression pattern

/pattern/flags

MongoDB recognizes six regular expression flags:

  • i: Case insensitive

  • m: Multiline

  • x: Can contain comments

  • l: locale

  • s: dotall, "." matches everything, including newlines

  • u: match unicode

First you must declare and define your regexObj
Here I am looking for all entry of my database wich is like "%Nicolas%" and the /i param is used for Insensitive Case
 $regexObj = new MongoRegex("/^Nicolas/i");

<?php
// I attach the regexObj to my Where Condition
 
$where = array("ctname" => $regexObj);

// Execute the request
 
$resultset = $this->db->Infos->find($where);

// Parsing the results
 
while ($resultset->hasNext())
 {
        
$clientObj = $resultset->getNext();
          echo
"Client Name: ".$clientObj["cname"]."</br>";
 }
?>
