Insert data into with pymongo and flask
when i click on submit button i get an error which says:
"TypeError: 'Collection' object is not callable. If you meant to call the 'insert' method on a 'Database' object it is failing because no such method exists."
here is my signin.py code :
from flask import Flask, request, render_template
from pymongo import MongoClient
@app = Flask(__name__)
connection = MongoClient()
db = connection.project #database name.
collection = connection.signup # collection name.
@app.route('/signin/')
def index_show():
return render_template('signin.html')
@app.route('/signin/', methods = ['POST'])
def signup_form():
username = request.form['user']
passowrd = request.form['pass']
collection.insert({'user': username, 'passoword': passowrd})
if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run(debug = True)
my html file code is here :
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<form method="post" action=".">
<input type="text" name="user" /><br/><br/>
<input type="password" name="pass" /><br/><br/>
<input type="submit" name="submit" /><br/><br/>
</form>
</body>
Answer
The method has been deprecated and is changed to .insert_one() in the pymongo 3.x driver, there is also .insert_many() for multiple document creation:
collection.insert_one({'user': username, 'passoword': passowrd})
The .insert() method is now only supported in the 2.x and lower series.
