Prerequisites: MongoDB and Python, Working With JSON Data in Python MongoDB is a cross-platform document-oriented and a non relational (i.e NoSQL) database program. It is an open-source document database, that stores the data in the form of key-value pairs. JSON stands for JavaScript Object Notation. It is an open standard file format, and data interchange format with an extension “.json”, that uses human-readable text to store and transmit data objects consisting of attribute-value pairs and array data types.
Importing JSON file in MongoDB
To import a JSON file in MongoDB we have to first load or open the JSON file after that we can easily insert that file into the database or the collection. To load a JSON file we have to first import json in our code after that we can open the JSON file. When our file gets loaded or opened we can easily insert it into the collection and operate on that file. Let’s see the example for better understanding. Example : Sample JSON used: 
Python3
import jsonfrom pymongo import MongoClient# Making Connectionmyclient = MongoClient("mongodb://localhost:27017/") # databasedb = myclient["GFG"] # Created or Switched to collection# names: GeeksForGeeksCollection = db["data"]# Loading or Opening the json filewith open('data.json') as file: file_data = json.load(file) # Inserting the loaded data in the Collection# if JSON contains data more than one entry# insert_many is used else insert_one is usedif isinstance(file_data, list): Collection.insert_many(file_data) else: Collection.insert_one(file_data) |
