MongoDB::authenticate — Log in to this database
This extension that defines this method is deprecated. Instead, the MongoDB extension should be used. There is no equivalent for this method in the new extension.
Instead, you need to provide credentials through the connection string.
$username
, string $password
) : arrayThis method causes its connection to be authenticated. If authentication is enabled for the database server (it's not, by default), you need to log in before the database will allow you to do anything.
In general, you should use the authenticate built into MongoClient::__construct() in preference to this method. If you authenticate on connection and the connection drops and reconnects during your session, you'll be reauthenticated. If you manually authenticated using this method and the connection drops, you'll have to call this method again once you're reconnected.
This method is identical to running:
<?php
$salted = "${username}:mongo:${password}";
$hash = md5($salted);
$nonce = $db->command(array("getnonce" => 1));
$saltedHash = md5($nonce["nonce"]."${username}${hash}");
$result = $db->command(array("authenticate" => 1,
"user" => $username,
"nonce" => $nonce["nonce"],
"key" => $saltedHash
));
?>
Once a connection has been authenticated, it can only be un-authenticated by using the "logout" database command:
<?php
$db->command(array("logout" => 1));
?>
username
The username.
password
The password (in plaintext).
Returns database response. If the login was successful, it will return
<?php
array("ok" => 1);
?>
<?php
array("ok" => 0, "errmsg" => "auth fails");
?>
