Collections methods: https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/method/js-collection/
Mongo Collections
Collections are the NoSQL equivalent to tables.
Add collection
Like databases, you can create collections by treating them as if they exist; if they do not, they will be created.
Drop collection
Drop collection from mongo shell
From the shell, call the drop() method on the collection you want to drop:
> db.collection.drop()
Insert document into collection
Use the insert() or insertOne() method: https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/method/db.collection.insertOne/#db.collection.insertOne
> db.collection.insert( { 'peanut butter':'jelly' } )
