Collection represents the Mongo collection information.

A collection object is usually created by calling yii\mongodb\Database::getCollection() or yii\mongodb\Connection::getCollection().

Collection provides the basic interface for the Mongo queries, mostly: insert, update, delete operations. For example:

$collection = Yii::$app->mongodb->getCollection('customer');
$collection->insert(['name' => 'John Smith', 'status' => 1]);

Collection also provides shortcut for yii\mongodb\Command methods, such as group(), mapReduce() and so on.

To perform "find" queries, please use yii\mongodb\Query instead.

$resultCollectionName = $customerCollection->mapReduce(
    'function () {emit(this.status, this.amount)}',
    'function (key, values) {return Array.sum(values)}',
