So no need for garbage collection implementation. - This way, the collection's size will remain around the size you expect and won't get falsely filled with unused data. - The package automatically adds a migration which creates the index. If you change the name of the `session.table` you should rerun the ttl index creation command `php artisan mongodb:session:index`. Enjoy! ------ [](#enjoy) Testing ------- [](#testing) This package includes a comprehensive test suite to ensure the MongoDB session handler works correctly. The tests cover: 1. Basic session operations (read, write, destroy) 2. Integration with Laravel's session system 3. HTTP session functionality 4. Laravel's testing helpers integration ### Running the Tests [](#running-the-tests) To run the tests, follow these steps: 1. Make sure MongoDB is installed and running on your system 2. Install the package dependencies with Composer: ``` composer install ``` 3. Run the tests with PHPUnit: ``` vendor/bin/phpunit ``` ### Continuous Integration [](#continuous-integration) The package includes a GitHub Actions workflow that automatically runs tests on PHP 8.1 with Laravel 10.x against MongoDB 7. The workflow: 1. Sets up a MongoDB service container 2. Installs PHP with MongoDB extension 3. Caches Composer dependencies for faster builds 4. Runs the test suite This ensures all tests pass before merging new changes. ### Expected Test Results [](#expected-test-results) When all tests are passing, you should see output similar to: ``` PHPUnit 10.x.x by Sebastian Bergmann and contributors. ............... 15 / 15 (100%) Time: 00:00.444, Memory: 32.00 MB OK (15 tests, 41 assertions) ``` ### Testing Environments [](#testing-environments) The tests are compatible with: - PHP 8.1+ - Laravel 10.x - MongoDB 4.0+ ### Test Coverage [](#test-coverage) - **Unit Tests**: These test the `MongoDbSessionHandler` methods directly (open, close, read, write, destroy, gc) - **Feature Tests**: These test the integration with Laravel's session functionality - **HTTP Tests**: These test session handling in HTTP requests and session persistence - **Laravel Helper Tests**: These test integration with Laravel's testing helpers like `withSession` and `flushSession` If you encounter any issues with the tests, please submit an issue on the GitHub repository. ### Health Score 51 — FairBetter than 96% of packages Maintenance53 Moderate activity, may be stable Popularity36 Limited adoption so far Community17 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity82 Battle-tested with a long release history Bus Factor2 2 contributors hold 50%+ of commits How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
