Install Mongodb on PHP Mac OS Montery (M1)

Install the PHP MongoDB Extension before installing the PHP Library for MongoDB. It is worth noting, that full MongoDB driver experience is provided by installing both the low-level extension (which integrates with our C driver) and high-level library, which is written in PHP.

But to make windows terminal look beauty we need to add a theme, so lets start.

Prerequisites

• Install PECL
  

  brew install pecl
  

• Install pcre2
  

  brew install pcre2
  

Tutorial

• Install mongodb extension
  

  pecl install mongodb
  

• Enabled extension on PHP.ini
  

  extension=mongodb.so
  

• To verify installation.
  

  php -i | grep mongodb
  

• You shoul see output.
  

  $ php -i|grep mongo
  mongodb

notes Change pcre2 version & php version with your local machine version.
