Let's quickly go over what we covered in this chapter:
We learned how to download and install the RockMongo GUI tool into a LAMP environment and how to configure it to support the MongoDB user authentication system.
We reviewed how RockMongo can be used to explore databases and collections on a MongoDB server, how documents are queried, created, modified, and deleted, how to perform other administrative tasks such as index management, data import/export, adding user accounts, and so on.
We learned how to download and install the phpMoAdmin GUI tool.
We played around with phpMoAdmin and figured out how to create/update/delete documents with it, how to import and export data, and how to use its smart search box to quickly query and view data.
We drew a comparison between RockMongo and phpMoAdmin based on their features, and attempted to choose the better tool for development and production environments.
This concludes our journey of learning web development with PHP and MongoDB. I hope you...
