Using PyMongo with MongoDB Atlas
================================
`Atlas <https://www.mongodb.com/cloud>`_ is MongoDB, Inc.'s hosted MongoDB as a
service offering. To connect to Atlas, pass the connection string provided by
Atlas to :class:`~pymongo.mongo_client.MongoClient`::
client = pymongo.MongoClient(<Atlas connection string>)
Connections to Atlas require TLS/SSL. For connections using TLS/SSL, PyMongo
may require third party dependencies as determined by your version of Python.
With PyMongo 3.3+, you can install PyMongo 3.3+ and any TLS/SSL-related
dependencies using the following pip command::
$ python -m pip install pymongo[tls]
Earlier versions of PyMongo require you to manually install the dependencies.
For a list of TLS/SSL-related dependencies, see :doc:`examples/tls`.

Python 2.x
``````````
The `ipaddress`_ module is required on all platforms.
When using CPython < 2.7.9 or PyPy < 2.5.1:
- On Windows, the `wincertstore`_ module is required.
- On all other platforms, the `certifi`_ module is required.
Python 3.x
``````````
On Windows, the `wincertstore`_ module is required when using CPython < 3.4.0
or any version of PyPy3.

Basic configuration

@ -23,19 +54,6 @@ This configures PyMongo to connect to the server using TLS, verify the server's
certificate and verify that the host you are attempting to connect to is listed
by that certificate.
PyMongo attempts to use the operating system's CA certificates to verify the
server's certificate when possible. Some versions of python may require an
extra third party module for this to work properly. Users of Python 2 on
Windows are encouraged to upgrade to python 2.7.9 or newer. Users of Python 3
on Windows should upgrade to python 3.4.0 or newer. If upgrading is not
possible `wincertstore <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/wincertstore>`_ can be
used with older python versions. Users of operating systems other than Windows
that are stuck on python versions older than 2.7.9 can install
`certifi <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/certifi>`_ to use the Mozilla CA bundle
for certificate verification. Users of python 2.x that require IP address
support for hostname matching must install the `ipaddress
<https://pypi.python.org/pypi/ipaddress>`_ module.
