Get ObjectId MongoDB via PHP
mongodb, php
Solution
`$user['_id']->{'$id'}` is not necessary and ugly, you can simply cast it to string to get id `$id = (string)$user['_id'];`
Problem
Here's my script ``` $terms = ['username' => $uri]; $user = $collection->findOne($terms); ``` result ``` array (size=4) '_id' => object(MongoId)[29] public '$id' => string '4ff6e96bb0b4599016000006' (length=24) 'username' => string 'me' (length=10) 'name' => string 'Yes, It's me!' (length=16) ``` Get Name `$name = $user['name'];` But, how can i get `$user['_id']` ? I try `$user['_id']` NOT WORK Please help. Thanks UPDATE Problem solved with `$user['_id']->{'$id'}`
