Fixin' the funk out of Mongo classes.

Some of the Mongo classes act a little funky. This library intends to fix those.

MongoId

Capitalization Funk

If you pass a capitalized string to MongoId it will store your string

$id = new MongoId("00000000000000000000AAAA");

var_dump($id);

/*
object (
  "$id" => "00000000000000000000AAAA"
)
*/

Now what happens if print it? Funk.

print $id; // 00000000000000000000aaaa

And what about comparing? Funk.

$id == 00000000000000000000AAAA // FALSE

Defunked

As soon as the string is passed we strtolower it. Defunked.

Why don't you just output the passed format? Well that has some issue with consistency in the database. This way I am hoping most of the bases are covered, but will need to do some further tests.

MongoDate

DateTime Funk

Per the documentation you need to pass an integer which represents a Unix timestamp or microtimestamp. This is understandable except DateTime is much more powerful and from the OO perspective a much better solution than timestamps.

Defunked

You can now pass DateTime objects to MongoDate.

$date = new DateTime();
$mdate = new MongoDate($date);
$date->getTimestamp() == $mdate->sec; // TRUE

You can also get a DateTime from MongoDate object

$mdate->getDateTime(); // returns DateTime instance

More

From my expierience that is the main frustrations, but more can be added.
