----------
.. phpmethod:: MongoDB\\Database::getTypeMap()
   Returns the type map for this database.
   .. code-block:: php
      function getTypeMap(): array
Return Values
-------------
A :ref:`type map <php-type-map>` array.
Example
-------
.. code-block:: php
   <?php
   $database = (new MongoDB\Client)->selectDatabase('test', [
       'typeMap' => [
           'root' => 'array',
           'document' => 'array',
           'array' => 'array',
       ],
   ]);
   var_dump($database->getTypeMap());
The output would then resemble::
   array(3) {
     ["root"]=>
     string(5) "array"
     ["document"]=>
     string(5) "array"
     ["array"]=>
     string(5) "array"
   }
