Laravel with MongoDB CURD operations - part 1

First you need to install Laravel and MongoDB.

I assume you have already know how to install Laravel.

Will start from MongoDb install.

Follow the mongodb official documentation and install MongoDB according to your OS
https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/installation/

We need to add MongoDB extention to php next.
For do that add the following line to php.ini file
extension=php_mongodb.dll
Restart the server.

Now we are ready to start with Laravel.

First you need to give the information for your .env file

DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=yourdatabasename

Add this on your config/database.php file

'mongodb' => [
            'driver'   => 'mongodb',
            'host'     => env('DB_HOST', 'localhost'),
            'port'     => 27017,
            'database' => env('DB_DATABASE', 'test'),
          ],
You can add username and password.This post I skip the adding user name and password.

Now your ready.
In next post will create page to add data to the database.

You need to use index method in your PostController to write a method to display all posts.  Now add following code to get all posts and display them in the view.       /**       * Display a listing of the resource.       *       * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response       */      public function index()      {          $posts = Post::all();           return view('posts.index')->with('posts', $posts);      }   If you go to {YOUR_BASE_URL}/posts you will get an error as you haven't add index view yet.
