MongoDB

Implementation of flask and PyMongo using mflix sample data set and mflix python UI. This is a short guide on how to integrated MongoDB Atlas to Flask applications using Flask-PyMongo wrapper and PyMongo driver.

The <code>mflix</code> directory holds the application logic.

<code>db.py</code> Where all database CRUD patterns are exposed as functions.

<code>api/movies.py</code> Where the web api is exposed to the UI

- <code>db.py</code> Where all database CRUD patterns are exposed as functions.
- <code>api/movies.py</code> Where the web api is exposed to the UI

The main directory holds the following files:

<code>run.py</code> Where the Flask application is initialize and the config is loaded

<code>sample_ini</code> Where the connection URI to MongoDB Atlas is configured

<code>requirments.txt</code> Where the dependencies this project needs to run are located.

- <code>run.py</code> Where the Flask application is initialize and the config is loaded
- <code>sample_ini</code> Where the connection URI to MongoDB Atlas is configured
- <code>requirments.txt</code> Where the dependencies this project needs to run are located.

git clone git@github.com:mongodb-developer/flask-pymongo-example.git

# navigate to the flask-pymongo-example directory cd flask-pymongo-example # create the virtual environment for MFlix python3 -m venv mflix-venv # activate the virtual environment source mflix_venv/bin/activate

python3 -m pip install -r requirments.txt

Rename the <code>sample_ini</code> to <code>.ini.</code>

Place your connection string in <code>DB_URI</code> parameter under <code>.ini</code>
