I have the following PHP array:
array (size=9)
'script_desc' => string 'Test Script' (length=21)
'script_date' => string 'May 11 2016 15:40:48' (length=20)
'log_date' => string 'May 12 2016 09:17:58' (length=20)
'name' => string 'test name' (length=2)
'type' => string 'location_status' (length=15)
'status' => boolean false
'test.server.1' =>
array (size=1)
'packages' =>
array (size=2)
'package1' =>
array (size=4)
'package_name' => string 'package1' (length=10)
'current_version' => string 'package1-1.4.26-r1' (length=20)
'latest_version' => string '1.4.26-r1' (length=9)
'package_status' => string '=' (length=1)
'package2' =>
array (size=4)
'package_name' => string 'package2' (length=14)
'current_version' => string 'package2-0.31.1-r1' (length=24)
'latest_version' => string '0.31.1-r2' (length=9)
'package_status' => string '<' (length=1)
'test.server.2' =>
array (size=1)
'packages' =>
array (size=2)
'package1' =>
array (size=4)
'package_name' => string 'package1' (length=16)
'current_version' => string 'package1-0.35.1-r0' (length=26)
'latest_version' => string '0.35.1-r0' (length=9)
'package_status' => string '=' (length=1)
'package3' =>
array (size=4)
'package_name' => string 'package3' (length=3)
'current_version' => string 'package3-5.3.2-r0' (length=33)
'latest_version' => string '5.3.2-r0' (length=8)
'package_status' => string '=' (length=1)
'_id' => float 5
Here's the code that I use to try to insert this array into my mongo database:
68 function add_history_record($location)
69 {
70 $m = new MongoClient("mongodb://10.1.1.1:27017");
71 $db = $m->mymongodb;
72 $collection = $db->mycollection;
73 $location['_id'] = getNextSequence("locationid");
74 $cursor = $collection->insert($location);
75 var_dump($cursor);
76 }
The error message I'm getting is this:
Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'MongoException' with message ''.' not allowed in key: test.server.1' in /var/www/html/mongotestapp/inventory.php on line 74
What I've tried So Far:
To prove to myself that I can have keys with "." in it, I used robomongo to add the following document:
{
"_id" : ObjectId("573483ae3747106e60a087f9"),
"test.server.1.1" : 123
}
It saved the document in my collection no problems. I'm not sure what I'm missing in my PHP code... Any suggestions?
EDIT 1:
I've changed my code to include the following:
68 function add_playbook_history_record($location)
69 {
70 $m = new MongoClient("mongodb://10.1.1.1:27017");
71 $db = $m->phonesys;
72 $collection = $db->inventory;
73 $location['_id'] = getNextSequence("locationid");
74 printf($location['_id']);
75 echo "<pre>".json_encode($location)."</pre>";
76 $cursor = $collection->insert($location, array("w"=>1));
77
78 // $cursor = $collection->insert($location, array("w" => 0,"j"=>true));
79 }
I can see that the system is generating a legit location id.
I also took the json formatted output and tested in jsonlint to make sure it's properly formatted etc.
Lastly, I started playing with the write options. When I enable line 78, the system doesn't return any error messages, but the records are not added to the database. But when I set w=1, it fails with the same error message about the key.
I've been playing around with the different options and reading this: http://php.net/manual/en/mongo.writeconcerns.php
but if you have any tips I'm all ears.
I don't have any shards or other servers. Just one main mongodb server running right now.
Thanks.
