+
+```bash

+```
+
+
+2 - Add the MongoDB configurations to the `config/database.php` config file:
+
+```php
+'connections' => [
+
+    'mongodb' => [
+        'driver'   => 'mongodb',
+        'host'     => env('DB_HOST', 'localhost'),

+        'options'  => [
+            'database' => '',
+        ]
+    ],
+
+	// ...
+
+],
+```
+
+3 - Open your Laravel's `.env` file and update the following variables:
+
+- set the `DB_HOST` to your `Docker-IP`.
+- set the `DB_PORT` to `27017`.
+- set the `DB_DATABASE` to `database`.
+
+
+4 - Finally make sure you have the `jenssegers/mongodb` package installed via Composer and its Service Provider is added.
+
+```bash
+composer require jenssegers/mongodb
+```
+More details about this [here](https://github.com/jenssegers/laravel-mongodb#installation).
+
+5 - Test it:
+
+- First let your Models extend from the Mongo Eloquent Model. Check the [documentation](https://github.com/jenssegers/laravel-mongodb#eloquent).
+- Enter the Workspace Continer `docker exec -it laradock_workspace_1 bash`.
+- Migrate the Database `php artisan migrate`.
