Changelog

Version Description
PECL mongo 1.1.0 Added a number of other fields, including id (the cursor id), at (the driver's counter of which document is current), numReturned (the number returned by the server in the current batch), and server (which server the query was sent to—useful in conjunction with Read Preferences.
PECL mongo 1.0.10 Added started_iterating field, a boolean indicating if cursor is pre- or post-query.

Examples

Example #1 MongoCursor::info() example

<?php
$m = new MongoClient();

$cursor = $m->test->foo->find(array("x" => 4), array("y" => 0));

echo "Before iteration started:\n";
var_dump($cursor->info());

echo "\nAfter iteration started:\n";
$cursor->rewind();
var_dump($cursor->info());

?>

The above example will output something similar to:

Before iteration started:
array(8) {
  ["ns"]=>
  string(8) "test.foo"
  ["limit"]=>
  int(0)
  ["batchSize"]=>
  int(0)
  ["skip"]=>
  int(0)
  ["flags"]=>
  int(0)
  ["query"]=>
  array(1) {
    ["x"]=>
    int(4)
  }
  ["fields"]=>
  array(1) {
    ["y"]=>
    int(0)
  }
  ["started_iterating"]=>
  bool(false)
}

After iteration started:
array(15) {
  ["ns"]=>
  string(8) "test.foo"
  ["limit"]=>
  int(0)
  ["batchSize"]=>
  int(0)
  ["skip"]=>
  int(0)
  ["flags"]=>
  int(0)
  ["query"]=>
  array(1) {
    ["x"]=>
    int(4)
  }
  ["fields"]=>
  array(1) {
    ["y"]=>
    int(0)
  }
  ["started_iterating"]=>
  bool(true)
  ["id"]=>
  int(0)
  ["at"]=>
  int(0)
  ["numReturned"]=>
  int(1)
  ["server"]=>
  string(25) "localhost:27017;-;.;26450"
  ["host"]=>
  string(9) "localhost"
  ["port"]=>
  int(27017)
  ["connection_type_desc"]=>
  string(10) "STANDALONE"
}
