mongoengine

I am using mongoengine with Django and my project needs to connect to one instances of MongoDB while another with sql .How my databse section of setting.py should be like ? DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql', 'NAME': 'admin_db', 'USER': 'root', 'PASSWORD': 'root', 'HOST': 'localhost', }, } from mongoengine import connect connect( db='pom', username='admin', password='root', host='mongodb://admin:root@localhost' ) You could add multiple databases for your app in your settings.py like, DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql', 'NAME': 'admin_db

I am using mongoengine with Django and within my project need to connect to two instances of MongoDB while serving single request. It works just fine if I use: connect("mdb1") #do stuff with mdb1 ... connect("mdb2") #do stuff with mdb2 but I am wondering if that's a proper way of doing it. Matt Zeunert Multiple database support was added in MongoEngine 0.6 Demo using register_connection . alias_lists = ['users-books-db', 'user-db', 'book-db'] # list of aliases dbs = ['author-book-pairs', 'users', 'books'] # list of databases for alias, db in zip(alias_lists, dbs): register_connection(alias, db

In my flask app I am using MongoeEgine. I am trying to insert multiple documents into my places collection in my MongoDB. My document class is defined as class places(db.Document): name = db.StringField(max_length=200, required=True) loc = db.GeoPointField(required=True) def __unicode__(self): return self.name a=[] a.append({"name" : 'test' , "loc":[-87,101]}) a.append({"name" : 'test' , "loc":[-88,101]}) x= places(a) The last statement fails x= places(a) TypeError: __init__() takes exactly 1 argument (2 given) I also tried to save this to my instance places.insert(x) places.save(x) both fail.

I have a ListField in a model with ids (ReferenceField), and I need to do a query if a certain id is in that list. AFAIK I have 2 options for this: Model.objects.filter(refs__contains='59633cad9d4bc6543aab2f39') or: Model.objects.filter(refs__in=['59633cad9d4bc6543aab2f39']) Which one is the most efficient for this use case? The model looks like: class Model(mongoengine.Document): refs = mongoengine.ListField(mongoengine.ReferenceField(SomeOtherModel)) From what I can read in the mongoengine documentation, http://docs.mongoengine.org/guide/querying.html#string-queries , contains is really a

I am building a website using Django and MongoDB. There are 2 popular API framework that we can use to connect Django and MongoDB , one is mongoengine and the other is django-mongodb-engine . Because the latest mongoengine is not supported Django anymore Document , and django-mongodb-engine needs another django-nonrel package which makes the development environment a little bit complicate. I am wondering, if I could use Pymongo to connect Django and MongoDB directly. Is there anyone who have the same experience that could share? and how to set the db in setting.py in Django to make the db

So what I'm after is something like: class Comment(EmbeddedDocument): content = StringField() upvotes = IntField() pub_date = DateTimeField() class Post(Document): title = StringField() comments = SortedListField(EmbeddedDocumentField(Comment)) post_date = DateTimeField() By default, this sorts by the chronological order of comment submission, but I want to make the SortedListField sort by the upvotes attribute of the embedded comment documents. Is this possible, and if so how do I go about it? This is actually covered in the unit tests if not clear from the documentation itself: class Post

I have thousands of documents in this format: { "_id" : ObjectId("51e98d196b01c2085c72d731"), "messages" : [ { "_id" : ObjectId("520167056b01c20bb9eee987"), "id" : ObjectId("520167056b01c20bb9eee987"), }, { "_id" : ObjectId("520167056b01c20bb9eee988"), "id" : ObjectId("520167056b01c20bb9eee988"), }, { "_id" : ObjectId("520167056b01c20bb9eee989"), "id" : ObjectId("520167056b01c20bb9eee989"), } ], } I need to remove the duplicate "id" field. This is what I have tried: db.forum_threads.update({}, {$unset: {"messages.$.id": 1}}, {multi: true}); This is the error I am getting: Cannot apply the
