FuelPHP Forums

Ok, so I made a little progress and even it still not working right now, here is what I came up with: 1. I found configuration Array for redis in conf/db.php and the __construct() function in mongodb Class.
So I edited it a little: 'mongo' => array(
'default' => array(
'hostname' => '127.0.0.1',
// 'persistent' => '',
'database' => 'test',
// 'username' => '',
// 'password' => '',
'port' => 27017,
)
), Now, when I try to instantiate Redis, it working as expected.
$redis = Redis::instance('test'); --> an error in the Redis Class (because I have no Redis installed) But when I try to do exactly the same to access Mongo, it throws:
Call to undefined method MongoDB::instance() I looked in to the bootstrap and MongoDb is in there. So how can it be? What am I doing wrong, any suggestions?

Guess what, this is exactly what I did:

ErrorException [ Error ]: Call to undefined method MongoDB::instance() 

APPPATH/classes/controller/welcome.php @ line 23

18     * @return  void
19     */
20    public function action_index()
21   
22    //    echo Debug::classes();    
23    $m = MongoDb::instance('test');
24    //    $redis = Redis::instance('mystore');
25    //    $this->response->body = View::factory('welcome/index');
26    }

Which is strange, because the Debug lists the existence of this classes:

echo Debug::classes()

"Mongo"
"MongoDB"
"MongoCollection"
"MongoCursor"
"MongoGridFS"
"MongoGridFSFile"
"MongoGridFSCursor"
"MongoId"
"MongoCode"
"MongoRegex"
"MongoDate"
"MongoBinData"
"MongoDBRef"
"MongoException"
"MongoCursorException"
"MongoCursorTimeoutException"
"MongoConnectionException"
"MongoGridFSException"
"MongoTimestamp"
"MongoInt32"
"MongoInt64"
"MongoMaxKey"
"MongoMinKey"

Ps: I'm using a clean install of rc3, where only db.php and Welcome controller are edited.

Well it was not so obvious to me, also because in the MongoDb Class there was this inconsistency everywhere. (exceptions messages/code) I think I'll stick with the plain php mongodb driver for the moment and refactor it latter, when this feature is more stable. (Didn't got it to work with the develop and mongo-feature branches)
And yes, I am not very experienced with fuelphp, but you seems to be an truthful evangelist
Thanks anyway.
