MongoDB query with multiple criteria using php

Question

In terminal, this returns what I want:

db.test.find({"sessions": {"$gt":5}, "n_friends":{"$lt":5}});

However in PHP, I have not been successful yet. The last thing I've tried looked like this:

    $query = $collection->find( array(
        'sessions' => array( '$gt' => 1 ), 
        '$and' => array('n_friends' => array( '$lt' => 50 ) ) ) );

Nevermind I got it. Basically I just realized that : becomes => in PHP, and the {} become array() — jSmith

You are overcomplicating it :)

<?php
$query = array(
    'sessions' => array( '$gt' => 1 ),
    'n_friends' => array( '$lt' => 50 ),
);
