This change drops support for server versions older than 3.6. If you still need support for older server versions the 3.x branch of PyMongo will receive bug fixes for at least a year after the release of PyMongo 4.0.

About
|
||
=====
|
||
|
||
The PyMongo distribution contains tools for interacting with MongoDB
|
||
database from Python. The ``bson`` package is an implementation of
|
||
the `BSON format <http://bsonspec.org>`_ for Python. The ``pymongo``
|
||
package is a native Python driver for MongoDB. The ``gridfs`` package
|
||
is a `gridfs
|
||
<http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/GridFS+Specification>`_
|
||
implementation on top of ``pymongo``.
|
||
|
||
PyMongo supports MongoDB 3.6, 4.0, 4.2, 4.4, and 5.0.

Support / Feedback
|
||
==================
|
||
|
||
For issues with, questions about, or feedback for PyMongo, please look into
|
||
our `support channels <https://support.mongodb.com/welcome>`_. Please
|
||
do not email any of the PyMongo developers directly with issues or
|
||
questions - you're more likely to get an answer on the `MongoDB Community
|
||
Forums <https://developer.mongodb.com/community/forums/tag/python-driver>`_.
|
||
|
||
Bugs / Feature Requests
|
||
=======================
|
||
|
||
Think you’ve found a bug? Want to see a new feature in PyMongo? Please open a
|
||
case in our issue management tool, JIRA:
|
||
|
||
- `Create an account and login <https://jira.mongodb.org>`_.
|
||
- Navigate to `the PYTHON project <https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/PYTHON>`_.

||
How To Ask For Help
|
||
-------------------
|
||
|
||
Please include all of the following information when opening an issue:
|
||
|
||
- Detailed steps to reproduce the problem, including full traceback, if possible.
|
||
- The exact python version used, with patch level::
|
||
|
||
$ python -c "import sys; print(sys.version)"
|
||
|
||
- The exact version of PyMongo used, with patch level::
|
||
|
||
$ python -c "import pymongo; print(pymongo.version); print(pymongo.has_c())"
|
||
|
||
- The operating system and version (e.g. Windows 7, OSX 10.8, ...)
|
||
- Web framework or asynchronous network library used, if any, with version (e.g.
|
||

|
||
|
||
Security Vulnerabilities
|
||
------------------------
|
||
|
||
If you’ve identified a security vulnerability in a driver or any other
|
||
MongoDB project, please report it according to the `instructions here
|
||
<http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/create-a-vulnerability-report>`_.
|
||
|
||
Installation
|
||
============
|
||
|
||
PyMongo can be installed with `pip <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pip>`_::
|
||
|
||
$ python -m pip install pymongo
|
||
|
||
Or ``easy_install`` from
|
||
`setuptools <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools>`_::
|
||
|
||
$ python -m easy_install pymongo
|
||
|
||
You can also download the project source and do::
|
||
|
||
$ python setup.py install
|
||
|
||
Do **not** install the "bson" package from pypi. PyMongo comes with its own
|
||
bson package; doing "easy_install bson" installs a third-party package that
|
||
is incompatible with PyMongo.
|
||
|
||
Dependencies
|
||
============
|
||
|
||
PyMongo supports CPython 3.6+ and PyPy3.6+.
|
||
|
||
Optional dependencies:
|
||
|
||
GSSAPI authentication requires `pykerberos
|
||
<https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pykerberos>`_ on Unix or `WinKerberos
|
||
<https://pypi.python.org/pypi/winkerberos>`_ on Windows. The correct
|
||
dependency can be installed automatically along with PyMongo::
|
||
|
||
$ python -m pip install pymongo[gssapi]
|
||
|
||
MONGODB-AWS authentication requires `pymongo-auth-aws
|
||
<https://pypi.org/project/pymongo-auth-aws/>`_::
|
||
|
||
$ python -m pip install pymongo[aws]
|
||
|
||
Support for mongodb+srv:// URIs requires `dnspython
|
||
<https://pypi.python.org/pypi/dnspython>`_::
|
||
|
||
$ python -m pip install pymongo[srv]
|
||
|
||
OCSP (Online Certificate Status Protocol) requires `PyOpenSSL
|
||
<https://pypi.org/project/pyOpenSSL/>`_, `requests
|
||
<https://pypi.org/project/requests/>`_, `service_identity
|
||
<https://pypi.org/project/service_identity/>`_ and may
|
||
require `certifi
|
||
<https://pypi.python.org/pypi/certifi>`_::
|
||
|
||
$ python -m pip install pymongo[ocsp]
|
||
|
||
Wire protocol compression with snappy requires `python-snappy
|
||
<https://pypi.org/project/python-snappy>`_::
|
||
|
||
$ python -m pip install pymongo[snappy]
|
||
|
||
Wire protocol compression with zstandard requires `zstandard
|
||
<https://pypi.org/project/zstandard>`_::
|
||
|
||
$ python -m pip install pymongo[zstd]
|
||

You can install all dependencies automatically with the following
|
||
command::
|
||
|
||
$ python -m pip install pymongo[gssapi,aws,ocsp,snappy,srv,tls,zstd,encryption]
|
||
|

Examples
|
||
========
|
||
Here's a basic example (for more see the *examples* section of the docs):
|
||
|
||
.. code-block:: python
|
||
|
||
>>> import pymongo
|
||
>>> client = pymongo.MongoClient("localhost", 27017)
|
||
>>> db = client.test
|
||
>>> db.name
|
||
'test'
|
||
>>> db.my_collection
|
||
Collection(Database(MongoClient('localhost', 27017), 'test'), 'my_collection')
|
||
>>> db.my_collection.insert_one({"x": 10}).inserted_id
|
||
ObjectId('4aba15ebe23f6b53b0000000')
|
||
>>> db.my_collection.insert_one({"x": 8}).inserted_id
|
||
ObjectId('4aba160ee23f6b543e000000')
|
||
>>> db.my_collection.insert_one({"x": 11}).inserted_id
|
||
ObjectId('4aba160ee23f6b543e000002')
|
||
>>> db.my_collection.find_one()
|
||
{'x': 10, '_id': ObjectId('4aba15ebe23f6b53b0000000')}
|
||
>>> for item in db.my_collection.find():
|
||
... print(item["x"])
|
||
...
|
||
10
|
||
8
|
||
11
|
||
>>> db.my_collection.create_index("x")
|
||
'x_1'
|
||
>>> for item in db.my_collection.find().sort("x", pymongo.ASCENDING):
|
||
... print(item["x"])
|
||
...
|
||
8
|
||
10
|
||
11
|
||
>>> [item["x"] for item in db.my_collection.find().limit(2).skip(1)]
|
||
[8, 11]

Documentation
|
||
=============
|
||
|
||
Documentation is available at `pymongo.readthedocs.io <https://pymongo.readthedocs.io/en/stable/>`_.
|
||
|
||
To build the documentation, you will need to install sphinx_.
|
||
Documentation can be generated by running **python
|
||
setup.py doc**. Generated documentation can be found in the
|
||
*doc/build/html/* directory.
|
||
|
||
Testing
|
||
=======
|
||
|
||
The easiest way to run the tests is to run **python setup.py test** in
|
||
the root of the distribution.
|
||
|
||
To verify that PyMongo works with Gevent's monkey-patching::
|
||
|
||
$ python green_framework_test.py gevent
|
||
|
||
Or with Eventlet's::
|
||
|
||
$ python green_framework_test.py eventlet
