Install MAMP: https://www.mamp.info/en/downloads/

export PATH=/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.6.10/bin:$PATH

PHP src from http://php.net/downloads.php - get same version as MAMP uses!

richardg@rgmac:~ $ sudo pecl install mongo

You should add "extension=mongo.so" to php.ini


richardg@rgmac:/Applications/MAMP $  vim  /Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.6.10/conf/php.ini
