mongoengine

MongoEngine is a Document-Object Mapper (think ORM, but for document databases) for working with MongoDB from Python.

It uses a simple declarative API, similar to the Django ORM.

Documentation available at docs.mongoengine.org - there is currently a tutorial, a user guide and API reference.

Simple to use

from mongoengine import * # To define a schema for a
 # document, we create a
class Metadata(EmbeddedDocument): # class that inherits from
 tags = ListField(StringField()) # Document.
 revisions = ListField(IntField())
 # Fields are specified by
class WikiPage(Document): # adding field objects as
 title = StringField(required=True) # class attributes to the
 text = StringField() # document class.
 metadata = EmbeddedDocumentField(Metadata)
 # Querying is achieved by
>>> page.title = "Hello, World!" # calling the objects
>>> for page in WikiPage.objects: # attribute on a document
>>> print page.title # class.
