arg_name: option
name: autoIndexId
type: boolean
description: |
  Specify ``false`` to disable the automatic creation of an index on the ``_id``
  field.

  .. important::

     For replica sets, do not set ``autoIndexId`` to ``false``.

  .. deprecated:: 3.2. The ``autoIndexId`` option will be removed in MongoDB 3.4.

name: capped
type: boolean

  To create a capped collection, specify ``true``. If you specify ``true``, you
  must also set a maximum size in the ``size`` option.

arg_name: option
name: flags
type: integer
description: |
  Available for the MMAPv1 storage engine only to set the ``usePowerOf2Sizes``
  and ``noPadding`` flags.

  The |php-library| provides constants that you can combine with a :php:`bitwise
  OR operator <language.operators.bitwise>` to set the flag values:

  - ``MongoDB\Operation\CreateCollection::USE_POWER_OF_2_SIZES``: ``1``
  - ``MongoDB\Operation\CreateCollection::NO_PADDING``: ``2``

  Defaults to ``1``.

  .. note::

     MongoDB 3.0 and later ignores the ``usePowerOf2Sizes`` flag. See
     :manual:`collMod </reference/command/collMod>` and
     :manual:`db.createCollection()
     </reference/method/db.createCollection>` for more information.

arg_name: option
name: indexOptionDefaults
type: array|object
description: |
  Allows users to specify a default configuration for indexes when creating a
  collection.

  The ``indexOptionDefaults`` option accepts a ``storageEngine`` document,
  which should take the following form::

     { <storage-engine-name>: <options> }

  Storage engine configurations specified when creating indexes are validated
  and logged to the :term:`oplog` during replication to support replica sets
  with members that use different storage engines.

arg_name: option
name: max
type: integer
description: |
   The maximum number of documents allowed in the capped collection. The
   ``size`` option takes precedence over this limit. If a capped
   collection reaches the ``size`` limit before it reaches the maximum
   number of documents, MongoDB removes old documents. If you prefer to
   use the ``max`` limit, ensure that the ``size`` limit, which is
   required for a capped collection, is sufficient to contain the
   maximum number of documents.

arg_name: option
name: size
type: integer
description: |
  Specify a maximum size in bytes for a capped collection. Once a capped
  collection reaches its maximum size, MongoDB removes the older documents to
  make space for the new documents. The ``size`` option is required for capped
  collections and ignored for other collections.

arg_name: option
name: storageEngine
type: array|object
description: |
  Available for the WiredTiger storage engine only.

  Allows users to specify configuration to the storage engine on a
  per-collection basis when creating a collection. The value of the
  ``storageEngine`` option should take the following form::

     { <storage-engine-name>: <options> }

  Storage engine configurations specified when creating collections are
  validated and logged to the :term:`oplog` during replication to support
  replica sets with members that use different storage engines.

description: |
  Type map for BSON deserialization. This will be used for the returned command
  result document. Defaults to the database's type map.

arg_name: option
name: validator
type: array
description: |
  Allows users to specify :manual:`validation rules or expressions
  </core/document-validation>` for the collection. For more information, see
  :manual:`Document Validation </core/document-validation>` in the MongoDB
  manual.

  The ``validator`` option takes an array that specifies the validation rules or
  expressions. You can specify the expressions using the same operators as
  MongoDB's :manual:`query operators </reference/operator/query>` with the
  exception of :query:`$geoNear`, :query:`$near`, :query:`$nearSphere`,
  :query:`$text`, and :query:`$where`.

  .. note::

     - Validation occurs during updates and inserts. Existing documents do not
       undergo validation checks until modification.

     - You cannot specify a validator for collections in the ``admin``,
       ``local``, and ``config`` databases.

     - You cannot specify a validator for ``system.*`` collections.

arg_name: option
name: validationAction
type: string
description: |
   Determines whether to ``error`` on invalid documents or just ``warn`` about
   the violations but allow invalid documents to be inserted.

   .. important::

      Validation of documents only applies to those documents as determined by
      the ``validationLevel``.

   .. list-table::
      :header-rows: 1

      * - ``validationAction``

        - Description

      * - ``"error"``

        - **Default**. Documents must pass validation before the write occurs.
          Otherwise, the write operation fails.

      * - ``"warn"``

        - Documents do not have to pass validation. If the document fails
          validation, the write operation logs the validation failure.

   Determines how strictly MongoDB applies the validation rules to existing
   documents during an update.

   .. list-table::
      :header-rows: 1

      * - ``validationLevel``

        - Description

      * - ``"off"``

        - No validation for inserts or updates.

      * - ``"strict"``

        - **Default**. Apply validation rules to all inserts and all updates.

      * - ``"moderate"``

        - Apply validation rules to inserts and to updates on existing *valid*
          documents. Do not apply rules to updates on existing *invalid*
          documents.
