Mongo::close — Closes this connection
The Mongo::close() method forcefully closes a connection to the database, even if persistent connections are being used. You do under normal circumstance never have to do this.
If you are connected to a replica set, close() will only close the connection to the primary.
This function has no parameters.
Returns if the connection was successfully closed.
| Version | Description |
|---|---|
| 1.2.0 |
Before version 1.2.0 the driver would not use persistent connections by default, and all connections would be closed as soon as a MongoDB connection went out if scope. Since version 1.2.0 this is no longer the case and it is a bad idea to call close as you might end up overloading the server with connections under high load. |
