Definition

MongoDB\Client::listDatabaseNames()

Returns names for all databases on the server.

function listDatabaseNames(array $options = []): Iterator

$options : array

An array specifying the desired options.

Name	Type	Description
authorizedDatabases	boolean	A flag that determines which databases are returned based on the user privileges when access control is enabled. To learn more, see the listDatabases command reference in the MongoDB Server manual. New in version 1.7.
comment	mixed	Enables users to specify an arbitrary comment to help trace the operation through the database profiler, currentOp output, and logs. To use this option, you must connect to MongoDB 6.0 or later. If you are connected to an earlier version, the server returns an exception at execution time. New in version 1.13.
filter	array\|object	A query expression to filter the list of databases. You can specify a query expression for database fields (e.g. `name`, `sizeOnDisk`, `empty`). New in version 1.3.
maxTimeMS	integer	The cumulative time limit in milliseconds for processing operations on the cursor. MongoDB aborts the operation at the earliest following interrupt point.
session	MongoDB\Driver\Session	Client session to associate with the operation. New in version 1.3.

An Iterator, which provides the name of each database on the server.

MongoDB\Exception\UnexpectedValueException if the command response from the server was malformed.

MongoDB\Exception\InvalidArgumentException for errors related to the parsing of parameters or options.

MongoDB\Driver\Exception\RuntimeException for other errors at the extension level (e.g. connection errors).

The following example lists all databases on the server:

<?php
$client = new MongoDB\Client;
foreach ($client->listDatabaseNames() as $databaseName) {
    var_dump($databaseName);
}

The output would then resemble:

string(5) "local"
string(4) "test"
