Example
-------

The following example lists all databases on the server:

.. code-block:: php

   <?php

   $client = new MongoDB\Client;

   foreach ($client->listDatabases() as $databaseInfo) {
       var_dump($databaseInfo);
   }

The output would then resemble::

   object(MongoDB\Model\DatabaseInfo)#4 (3) {
     ["name"]=>
     string(5) "local"
     ["sizeOnDisk"]=>
     float(65536)
     ["empty"]=>
     bool(false)
   }
   object(MongoDB\Model\DatabaseInfo)#7 (3) {
     ["name"]=>
     string(4) "test"
     ["sizeOnDisk"]=>
     float(32768)
     ["empty"]=>
     bool(false)
   }
