To show that the document we inserted in the previous step is stored in the database, we can do a simple MongoCollection::findOne() operation to get a single document from the collection. This method is useful when there is only one document matching the query or you are only interested in one result.
<?php
$connection = new MongoClient();
$collection = $connection->database->collectionName;
$document = $collection->findOne();
var_dump( $document );
?>

Note that there is an _id field that has been added automatically to your document. _id is the "primary key" field. If your document does not specify one, the driver will add one automatically.
If you specify your own _id field, it must be unique to the collection. See the example here:
<?php
$connection = new MongoClient();
$db = $connection->database;
$db->foo->insert(array("_id" => 1));
// this will throw an exception
$db->foo->insert(array("_id" => 1));
// this is fine, as it is a different collection
$db->bar->insert(array("_id" => 1));
?>
By default the driver will ensure the server has acknowledged the write before returning. You can optionally turn this behaviour off by passing array("w" => 0) as the second argument. This means that the driver should not wait for the database to acknowledge the write and would not throw the duplicate _id exception.
