This package provides a userspace implementation of the GridFS specification for PHP's new mongodb extension (not to be confused with the similarly named mongo extension).

This library requires PHP 7!

Installation

Use Composer:

$ composer require helmich/gridfs

Usage

Initialization

GridFS is oriented around Buckets. For a bucket named $name, this library will create two collections $name.files and $name.chunks in which file metadata and content blocks will be stored. Create a new bucket by instantiating the Helmich\GridFS\Bucket class. You will need a MongoDB\Database instance as dependency and can optionally pass an instance of the Helmich\GridFS\Options\BucketOptions class to configure your bucket:

$manager = new \MongoDB\Driver\Manager('mongodb://localhost:27017');
$database = new \MongoDB\Database($manager, 'yourdatabase');

$bucketOptions = (new \Helmich\GridFS\Options\BucketOptions)
  ->withBucketName('yourbucket');
$bucket = new \Helmich\GridFS\Bucket($database, $bucketOptions);

Uploading files into a bucket

Uploading of files is done via streams. You can open a new upload stream using the openUploadStream function:

$uploadOptions = (new \Helmich\GridFS\Options\UploadOptions)
  ->withChunkSizeBytes(4 << 10)
  ->withMetadata(['foo' => 'bar']);

$uploadStream = $bucket->openUploadStream("helloworld.txt", $uploadOptions);
$uploadStream->write("Hello World!");
$uploadStream->close();

echo "File ID is: " . $uploadStream->fileId();

Alternatively, use the uploadFromStream method, which takes a PHP stream as a parameter:

$fileStream = fopen('humungousfile.blob', 'r');
$fileId = $bucket->uploadFromStream('humungousfile.blob', $fileStream, $uploadOptions);

Finding uploaded files

Use the find method to find files in your bucket. The find method takes a MongoDB query object as first parameter that is applied to the $bucketName.files collection. The second parameter is an instance of the Helmich\GridFS\Options\FindOptions class in which you can specify advanced options for the search:

$options = (new \Helmich\GridFS\Options\FindOptions)
  ->withBatchSize(32)
  ->withLimit(128)
  ->withSkip(13)
  ->withSort(['filename' => 1])
  ->withNoCursorTimeout();

$query = [
  'filename' => [
    '$in': ['foo.txt', 'bar.txt']
  ],
  'uploadDate' => [
    '$gt' => new \MongoDB\BSON\UTCDatetime(time() - 86400)
  ]
];

$files = $bucket->find($query, $options);

Downloading files from a bucket

Downloading files is also stream-oriented. Given the ID of an already existing file, open a new download stream using the openDownloadStream function:

$file = $bucket->find(['filename' => 'foo.txt'], (new \Helmich\GridFS\Options\FindOptions)->withLimit(1))[0];

$downloadStream = $bucket->openDownloadStream($file['_id']);
echo $downloadStream->readAll();

// alternatively:
while (!$downloadStream->eof()) {
  echo $downloadStream->read(4096);
}

Given an already existing (and writeable) PHP stream, you can also use the downloadToStream method to pipe the file directly into the stream:

$fileStream = fopen('humungousfile.blob', 'w');
$bucket->downloadToStream($id, $fileStream);

There is also a byName variant of both openDownloadStream (openDownloadStreamByName()) and downloadToStream (downloadToStreamByName). Both of these functions take a file name and a Helmich\GridFS\Options\DownloadOptions instance as parameter. The $options parameter allows you to specify which revision of the given filename should be downloaded:

$options = (new \Helmich\GridFS\Options\DownloadByNameOptions)
  ->withRevision(-1); // also the default; will download the latest revision of the file

$stream = $bucket->openDownloadStreamByName('yourfile.txt', $options);

Deleting files

Delete files from the bucket using the delete method:

$bucket->delete($fileId);

PSR-7 adapters

I've implemented this package for a PSR-7 compliant web application. PSR-7 also heavily relies on streams, so I've found it useful to add an adapter class to map a Helmich\GridFS\Stream\DownloadStreamInterface to a Psr\Http\Message\StreamInterface. This is especially useful if you want to return GridFS files as a response body stream. The following example uses the Slim framework, but should be easily adaptable to other PSR-7 compliant frameworks:

$app->get(
  '/documents/{name}',
  function(RequestInterface $req, ResponseInterface $res, array $args) use ($bucket): ResponseInterface
  {
    $stream = $bucket->openDownloadStreamByName($args['name']);
    return $res
      ->withHeader('content-type', $stream->file()['metadata']['contenttype'])
      ->withBody(new \Helmich\GridFS\Stream\Psr7\DownloadStreamAdapter($stream));
  }
);
