CRUD using the Python driver
Python is a powerful programming language that provides robust web development capabilities, when paired with frameworks such as FastAPI. For MongoDB integration with Python, you can use MongoEngine as well as the official MongoDB low-level driver, PyMongo. PyMongo can be easily installed using pip
:
$ python -m pip install pymongo
You can use the following connection snippet to test the connection to your MongoDB deployment:
from pymongo import MongoClient # Replace the placeholder with your connection string uri = "<connection string>" # Create a new client and connect to the server client = MongoClient(uri) # Send a ping to confirm a successful connection try: client.admin.command('ping') print("Pinged your deployment. You successfully connected to MongoDB!") except Exception as e: print(e)
PyMongo is MongoDB's officially supported...
