MongoGridFS::storeUpload

(PECL mongo >=0.9.0)

MongoGridFS::storeUploadSaves an uploaded file to the database

Description

public mixed MongoGridFS::storeUpload ( string $name [, array $metadata ] )

Stores files directly from a POST to the database. For example, suppose you had the following HTML form:

<form method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
     Please upload a profile picture: <input type="file" name="pic"/>
     <input type="submit"/>
</form>

If you wanted to store this upload in MongoDB, you could do:

<?php

$grid
->storeUpload("pic", array("username" => "joe"));

?>

Note that the "name" field in HTML matches the name parameter.

Parameters

name

The name field of the uploaded file.

metadata

An array of extra fields for the uploaded file.

Return Values

Returns the _id of the uploaded file.

Changelog
