How to add row to database using insert method in flask-mongoalchemy?

Question

MongoDB

Hello everyone
I started to learn mongodb from this guy's video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVx1737auSE
I created a database on https://mlab.com
, it connects with this code without any problems, the login and password are correct.

from flask import Flask 
from flask_mongoalchemy import MongoAlchemy 

app = Flask(__name__)

app.config['MONGOALCHEMY_DATABASE'] = 'dbname' 
app.config['MONGOALCHEMY_CONNECTION_STRING'] = 'mongodb://username:[email protected]:31315/bestpricedb' 

db = MongoAlchemy(app) 

class User(db.Document):
    name = db.StringField()

class query(db.Document):
    qeryz = db.StringField()

but when I try to raise a small server:

from flask import Flask 
from flask_mongoalchemy import MongoAlchemy 

app = Flask(__name__)

app.config['MONGOALCHEMY_DATABASE'] = 'dbname' 
app.config['MONGOALCHEMY_CONNECTION_STRING'] = 'mongodb://username:[email protected]:31315/bestpricedb' 

mongo = MongoAlchemy(app) 

@app.route('/add')
def add():
    user = mongo.db.users
    user.insert({'name' : 'Lega'})
    return ('User add')

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(debug=True)

the server starts, but when going to 'add' it gives the following error: builtins.AttributeError
AttributeError: 'MongoAlchemy' object has no attribute 'db'

Answer 1

he has pymongo in the video, not MongoAlchemy
u = User(name="lega")
u.save()
