The MongoDB\BSON\Serializable interface

(mongodb >=1.0.0)

Introduction

Classes that implement this interface may return data to be serialized as a BSON array or document in lieu of the object's public properties.

Interface synopsis

class MongoDB\BSON\Serializable implements MongoDB\BSON\Type {
/* Methods */
abstract public bsonSerialize(): array|object
}

Changelog

Version Description
PECL mongodb 1.15.0 Return types for methods are declared as tentative on PHP 8.0 and newer, triggering deprecation notices in code that implements this interface without declaring the appropriate return types. The #[ReturnTypeWillChange] attribute can be added to silence the deprecation notice.
