the namespace database is automatically create if it does not exist when we create collection

use MongoDB\Driver\Manager;
use MongoDB\Database;

$manager = new Manager("mongodb://localhost:27017");
$database = new Database($manager, 'newDataBase');
var_dump($database->createCollection('CollectionName'));

sorry i keep learning

You probably have problems with the naming. In mongodb a DB is called an Index and a tabe called a Collection.

You will find createIndex in the docs:

http://mongodb.github.io/mongo-php-library/api/namespace-MongoDB.Operation.html

https://docs.mongodb.org/v3.0/reference/method/db.collection.createIndex/
