The Perl Toolchain Summit needs more sponsors. If your company depends on Perl, please support this very important event.

Changes for version 0.34

  • $conn->foo->bar->baz now gets the bar.baz collection in the foo database
  • Slight speed improvements on inserts
  • Added $conn->query_timeout option to control timeout lengths for all queries done over a given connection
  • MongoDB::Cursor::tailable and MongoDB::Cursor::immortal
  • added TO_JSON function to MongoDB::OID
  • Fixed safe save (Othello Maurer)
  • BACKWARD-BREAKING: removed old indexing syntax (if you started using the driver less than a year ago, this shouldn't affect you. If you're an old- timer, make sure you're not using the syntax that has been deprecated for a year).
