I have installed a new server running (alpine) linux with Apache and PHP7. I have also installed the mongodb driver. The following is what I see when I run phpinfo():
mongodb support enabled
mongodb version 1.1.10-dev
mongodb stability devel
libmongoc version 1.3.6
libbson version 1.3.6
I have also installed the mongodb php7 library (https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/package/edge/testing/x86_64/mongo-php7-library) and it created the following dir structure for me:
webdev1:/var/www/# ls -lah /usr/lib/php7/vendor/mongodb/mongodb/

I'm trying to write a basic page now that will prove that this library is working.
So far I have:
Copied the library files into a sub folder in my test project. So i have this in my test web app folder:

"; echo extension_loaded("mongodb") ? "loaded\n" : "not loaded\n"; echo "Test 2 - MongoDB Client Library working...
"; $client = new MongoDB\Client("mongodb://localhost:27017"); $collection = $client->jjtest->col1; $result = $collection->find(); var_dump($result); ?>
Results
When I run the test.php page, it shows that my driver is loaded... but I'm getting the error:
Test 1 - Mongodb Driver loaded?
loaded Test 2 - MongoDB Client Library working...
Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Class 'MongoDB\Database' not found in /var/www/localhost/htdocs/test/mongodb/Client.php:168 Stack trace: #0 /var/www/localhost/htdocs/test/mongodb/Client.php(93): MongoDB\Client->selectDatabase('jjtest') #1 /var/www/localhost/htdocs/test/test.php(9): MongoDB\Client->__get('jjtest') #2 {main} thrown in /var/www/localhost/htdocs/test/mongodb/Client.php on line 168
What I've tried So Far
To prove that mongo itself is working, I launched a CLI and ran this command:
> use jjtest
switched to db jjtest
> show collections
col1
> db.col1.find();
{ "_id" : ObjectId("5994980ba9e72bb4f6afed66"), "name" : "john", "age" : "99" }

I'm currently reading up on namespaces and the autoloader.php (Why my autoload.php of composer doesn't work?) but nothing I've tried so far is working there either. The files that were auto created by installing the mongo-php7-library doesn't include an autoloader.php that i can point to.
Update 1
I also tried to include this at the top of my test.php file:
require_once __DIR__ . "/mongodb/";
But I get the following error:
Warning: require_once(/var/www/localhost/htdocs/test/mongodb/): failed to open stream: No error information in /var/www/localhost/htdocs/test/test.php on line 1
Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required '/var/www/localhost/htdocs/test/mongodb/' (include_path='.:') in /var/www/localhost/htdocs/test/test.php on line 1
