mongocursor.slaveokay

MONGOCURSOR.SLAVEOKAY(3)						 1						  MONGOCURSOR.SLAVEOKAY(3)

MongoCursor::slaveOkay - Sets whether this query can be done on a secondary [deprecated]

SYNOPSIS

       public MongoCursor MongoCursor::slaveOkay ([bool  $okay = true])

DESCRIPTION

       Warning

	       This method is deprecated since version 1.5.0. Instead, please use MongoCursor::setReadPreference and "Read Preferences".

	Calling this will make the driver route reads to secondaries if:

	      o You are using a replica set, and

	      o You created a MongoClient instance using the option
		"replicaSet" => "setName", and

	      o There is a healthy secondary that can be reached by the driver.

	You  can  check  which	server was used for this query by calling MongoCursor.info(3) after running the query. It's server field will show
       which server the query was sent to.

	Note that you should use this function even if you do not use the automatic routing to secondaries. If you connect directly to a secondary
       in  a  replica  set,  you still need to call this function, which basically tells the database that you are aware that you might be getting
       older data and you're okay with that. If you do not call this, you'll get "not master" errors when you try to query.

	This method will override the static class variable $MongoCursor::$slaveOkay. It will also  override  Mongo.setSlaveOkay(3),  MongoDB.set-
       SlaveOkay(3) and MongoCollection.setSlaveOkay(3).

PARAMETERS

	      o $okay
		- If it is okay to query the secondary.

RETURN VALUES

	Returns this cursor.

ERRORS
/EXCEPTIONS
	Throws MongoCursorException if this cursor has started iterating.

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      MongoCursor.slaveOkay(3) example

	      <?php

	      MongoCursor::$slaveOkay = false;

	      // cannot query secondary
	      $cursor = $collection->find();

	      // can query secondary
	      $cursor = $collection->find()->slaveOkay();

	      MongoCursor::$slaveOkay = true;

	      // can query secondary
	      $cursor = $collection->find();

	      // cannot query secondary
	      $cursor = $collection->find()->slaveOkay(false);

	      ?>
