Installing

This iteration of the Couchbase PHP client is not currently available via PECL, and as such must be compiled manually in order to be used. The extension will become available via PECL once it leaves the DP phase. Until then, you may install by downloading a prebuilt binary of the DP available on couchbase.com for the Windows platform, or by checking out the repository and building it directly:

phpize
./configure --enable-couchbase
make && make install

Introduction

Connecting to a Couchbase bucket is as simple as creating a new Connection instance. Once you are connect, you may execute any of Couchbases' numerous operations against this connection.

Here is a simple example of instantiating a connection, setting a new document into the bucket and then retrieving its contents:

  $cluster = new CouchbaseCluster('192.168.7.26');
  $db = $cluster->openBucket('default');
  $db->upsert('testdoc', array('name'=>'Frank'));
  $res = $db->get('testdoc');
  var_dump($res->value);
  // array(1) {
  //   ["name"]=>
  //   string(5) "Frank"
  // }
