MAMP - Install MongoDB

Please note: replace 7.x.x with your PHP version.

Edit .bash_profile

This is important because it tells pecl in which PHP version the mongodb module should be added.

nano ~/.bash_profile
alias php="/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php7.x.x /bin/php"
export PATH="/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php7.x.x /bin:$PATH"

Apply the changes in .bash_profile

source ~/.bash_profile

Install MongoDB via PECL

pecl install mongodb
Installing '/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php7.x.x/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20160303/mongodb.so'
