CONFESSION #1

CONFESSION #1IM NO MASTER( but I do know how to make the most of things )

CONFESSION #2

CONFESSION #2ITS REALLY EASY( once youve got it all set up )

FOREXAMPLE

THERE IS NO SPOON !!! ( or need to leave your app )

NO LANGUAGE BARRIERS !!! ( all the logic is in one place )

Why ?mongoDB

EXCELLENT GEOLOCATION SUPPORT ( have you ever heard of Foursquare ...? )

ITS LIGHTENING FAST !!! ( some say 6,000 times faster in fact )

SCHEMA-LESS JSON DATA ( otherwise known as freedom )

REPLICA-SETS & SHARDING( load-balancing and auto back-ups built-in from day one )

LASTBUT NOTLEAST

GRIDFS( media storage and serving )

EXAMPLE PHPCODE

CREATE DB + COLLECTION + INSERT DATA// MongoDB PHP Class$m = new Mongo();// Select Database & Collection (Table)$db = $m->freesquare;$collectiom = $db->places;// Add Document (Add a Record)$obj = array( "title" => "KL MongoDB User-Group", "loc" => array( "lng" => 101.67646, "lat" => 3.127896 ))$results = $collection->insert($obj);

HAVING ADDED SEVERAL PLACES// Assuming collection is defined// We can now add the GeoSpatial Index$collection->ensureIndex(array("loc"=>"2d");// Defining my current location$my_location = array(101.67646, 3.127896);// Find Nearest Locations$nearest_place = $collection->command(array( "geoNear" => "loc", "near" => $my_location, "spherical" => true, "num" => 1))// Ready for AJAX listenersecho json_encode($nearest_place);

KL MongoDB User-Group THE END RESULTS( if connected to something such as gSpot – for example )
