Connect laravel jenssegers to mongodb atlas cluster

In Laravel, Use 'dsn' key in config/database.php as shown below to mention the complete cluster url.

'mongodb_conn' => [        'driver' => 'mongodb',        'dsn'=>'mongodb://username:password@host1,host2/database?ssl=true&replicaSet=replicaSet&authSource=admin',        'database' => 'my_data',    ]

Following works for me, MongoDB Atlas and Laravel 5.7:

update config/database.php:

'mongodb' => [            'driver' => 'mongodb',            'dsn' => 'mongodb+srv://<username>:<password>@cluster0.kxxi7.mongodb.net/mydatabase?retryWrites=true&w=majority',            'database' => 'mydatabase',        ],

Set your connection string at dsn and db name at database.

By default, when assembling the connection string, the Jenssegers\Mongodb package assembles a DSN that starts with mongodb://. In order to connect to a mongoDB atlas instance, the DSN needs to start with mongodb+srv://.

The simplest and most flexible way to handle this is to add the following entry to your .env:

MONGO_DB_BASE_URI=mongodb+srv://

Then, in your database.php, your mongodb entry should look like the following:

    'mongodb' => [        'driver' => 'mongodb',        'host' => env('MONGO_DB_HOST', 'localhost'),        'port' => env('MONGO_DB_PORT', 27017),        'database' => env('MONGO_DB_DATABASE'),        'username' => env('MONGO_DB_USERNAME'),        'password' => env('MONGO_DB_PASSWORD'),        'options' => [],        'dsn' => env('MONGO_DB_BASE_URI','mongodb://').env('MONGO_DB_HOST', 'localhost')    ],

This gives you control over whether you're connecting to a local instance - in which case you can use a DSN of mongodb://, or a cloud instance such as Atlas - in which case you use a DSN of mongodb+srv://.
