You don't need to create collect in first time. when insert first data in mongo collection, it just create and store data according to your data.

In laravel framework best way use jenssegers package. U can find it documentation from here.

It so easy to use. just add mongo db connection to config like bellow

'mongodb' => [
    'driver' => 'mongodb',
    'host' => env('DB_HOST', '127.0.0.1'),
    'port' => env('DB_PORT', 27017),
    'database' => env('DB_DATABASE', 'homestead'),
    'username' => env('DB_USERNAME', 'homestead'),
    'password' => env('DB_PASSWORD', 'secret'),
    'options' => [
        'appname' => 'homestead',
    ],
],

After that extend your model from jenssegers model like bellow

use Jenssegers\Mongodb\Eloquent\Model;

class Book extends Model
{
    protected $collection = 'books';
    protected $connection = 'mongodb';
}

And finally create(or save if exists collection) like bellow:

$book = new Book();
$book->title = 'A Game of Thrones';
$book->save();

It so Easy!!!!! Enjoy :)

Hey you can use this to crate collections

DB::connection('mongodb')->createCollection("logger");

Refer document : https://www.php.net/manual/en/mongodb.createcollection.php

Model

<?php

namespace App;
use Jenssegers\Mongodb\Eloquent\Model as Eloquent;

class new_artciels extends Eloquent
{
  protected $collection = 'new_artciels';}

Controller

use App\new_artciels;

this should work for you.
