Details

PackedArray bsonSerialize()

Provides an array or document to serialize as BSON Called during serialization of the object to BSON. The method must return an array or stdClass.

Root documents (e.g. a MongoDB\BSON\Serializable passed to MongoDB\BSON\fromPHP()) will always be serialized as a BSON document. For field values, associative arrays and stdClass instances will be serialized as a BSON document and sequential arrays (i.e. sequential, numeric indexes starting at 0) will be serialized as a BSON array.

PackedArray
