15 Minutes through and it's a precise and nicely structured tutorial

[juliushuizing]

Best I could find. Great balance in covering both the high level concepts and what it looks like in code.

[pynchia]

Great tutorial. Many thanks Michael. However, let me point out the data model should be shown clearly at the beginning (the real one about the snakes, not about books) and throughout development when it would help follow the actions created

Thank you for such a nice video. I am just starting out with MongoDB and the video was a really good introduction with a project.

[franklinobasy]

Wow, great content structure and excellent delivery!

[Factory]

Pretty sure I need to watch this more than great intro with TONS of information especially for someone like me that is rather new to Python.

[YashMoh]

Thanks sir it helps a lot for beginners like me

[ginopeduto]

Thank you so much for this good introduction - from a technical point of view its perfect - also I was disappointed for not writing a single line of code after 30 minutes - even so it was announced after 10 minutes - I give this comment not to complain - but to give feedback, as I am still very thankfull about this kind of free content.

[jegormester]

Thank you, Michael!
This is the best MongoDB tutorial on youtube :)

[eyebiofeedback]

Michael's the man. Taught me Python

5:14 Just wanna say that if you have a higher % of questions on Stack Overflow, doesn't necessarily mean you have a more popular thing. Maybe it's just way more complicated :p.
Kidding of course, but it made me chuckle. Thank you for the amazing video!

[DmatiasR]

Hi there! Very interesting tutorial! Did you work with mongodb and python async? For example, Motor?

[vikrantsrivastava]

I have stored doc file in mongoDB GridFS using mongoose in nodejs. Now I want to retrieve the actual data from mongoDB using python. How to approach for it? I don't want the key-value pair but the actual data. Any suggestion would really be helpful. Thank you. :)

hm. works fine in vscode but when I do it in terminal python (path of program.py) in the src directory it says colorama module not installed even though I installed the requirements.txt file and it works fine in the same path on vscode. is there a stack overflow how do I find it?

[sunithkumar]

I like Pymongo over mongoengine, since it is much convenient to write complex queries

[nima-ieyf]

if i use mongodb in a python app and make .exe file to install it on another computer, does it need to install mongodb server and have local host settings on that computer?? I wish you would post a video about this!!

[ayomidefadeyi]

Nice one.
Great work.

Can you please, help out with this?
I will appreciate it if you can please work me through how to connect MongoDB hosted on digitalocean to any BI Tool, like Power BI, using Python or R, or any other means possible.

[drlambo]

if you don't add dnspython to the list of required modules it won't work with connection URIs. I used mongodb atlas to practice and had to do some workarounds.

[paulocoelho]

Five years have passed, and I'm interested in learning MongoDB with Python. Is this video still up to date or will I end up wasting a lot of time trying to follow along? Does anyone know?😉😉
