MongoCollection::insert — Inserts an array into the collection
An array.
If the database should check that the insert was successful.
If safe was set, returns an array containing the status of the insert. Otherwise, returns a boolean representing if the array was not empty (an empty array will not be inserted).
Example #1 MongoCollection::insert() _id example
Inserting an object will add an _id field to it, unless it is passed by reference.
<?php
$a = array('x' => 1);
$collection->insert($a);
var_dump($a)
$b = array('x' => 1);
$ref = &$b;
$collection->insert($ref);
var_dump($ref);
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
array(2) { ["x"]=> int(1) ["_id"]=> object(MongoId)#4 (0) { } } array(1) { ["x"]=> int(1) }
