.TH PYMONGO 3 "March 13, 2010"
.SH NAME
pymongo \- Python interface for MongoDB
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B pymongo
.br
.SH DESCRIPTION
.br
This manual page documents briefly the
.B pymongo
python library.
.PP
.SH USAGE
Assuming that a running instance of MongoDB is available, setup a connection to the daemon:
>>> from pymongo import Connection
.br
>>> connection = Connection('localhost', 27017)
If you are happy with the default values (localhost) you can simply use Connection()
.br
A single instance of MongoDB can support multiple independent databases.
Select the database you want to use:
>>> db = connection.test_database
You can use dictionary-style access instead:
>>> db = connection['test-database']
A collection is a group of documents stored in MongoDB, a bit like a table in a relational database.
.br
Get a collection:
>>> collection = db.test_collection
.br
Or:
.br
>>> collection = db['test-collection']
Warning: Collections and databases are created when the first document is inserted into them.
.br
Example of data insertion:
>>> item = {"author": "Me","title": "This is a test"}
>>> collection.insert(item)
