The Backbone.js collection create method is used to create a new instance of the model in the collection.

Syntax:

Parameter explanation:

attributes: It specifies the property of a defined model.

Let's take an example to deploy the create method.

      <script type="text/javascript">
         //The model 'ModelDemo' uses the sync method to display the model state such as create, read, update etc
         var ModelDemo = Backbone.Model.extend({
            sync : function (method, model, options) {
               document.write(JSON.stringify(arguments));
            }
         });

         //'CollectionDemo' is an instance of the collection
        var CollectionDemo = Backbone.Collection.extend({
           model : ModelDemo   //The model 'ModelDemo' is specified by overriding the 'model' property
        });

        //'ViewDemo' is the name of the view
        var ViewDemo = Backbone.View.extend({

        //The instance of the collection 'collectiondemo' is created within the 'initialize()' function
           initialize : function () {
              var collectiondemo = new CollectionDemo();
              collectiondemo.create({
                 Name:"Narendra Modi",
                 Country:"India"
              });
           }
        });
        new ViewDemo();  //The view instance 'ViewDemo' is created using the 'new' keyword.
      </script>
   </body>
