Non-blocking MongoDB driver for Tornado or asyncio
.. image:: https://raw.github.com/mongodb/motor/master/doc/_static/motor.png
:Info: Motor is a full-featured, non-blocking MongoDB_ driver for Python
Tornado_ and asyncio_ applications.
:Documentation: Available at motor.readthedocs.io <https://motor.readthedocs.io/en/stable/>
_
:Author: A. Jesse Jiryu Davis
Motor presents a coroutine-based API for non-blocking access
to MongoDB. The source is on GitHub <https://github.com/mongodb/motor>
_
and the docs are on ReadTheDocs_.
"We use Motor in high throughput environments, processing tens of thousands
of requests per second. It allows us to take full advantage of modern
hardware, ensuring we utilise the entire capacity of our purchased CPUs.
This helps us be more efficient with computing power, compute spend and
minimises the environmental impact of our infrastructure as a result."
--*David Mytton, Server Density*
"We develop easy-to-use sensors and sensor systems with open source
software to ensure every innovator, from school child to laboratory
researcher, has the same opportunity to create. We integrate Motor into our
software to guarantee massively scalable sensor systems for everyone."
--*Ryan Smith, inXus Interactive*

_.Bug reports in JIRA for all driver projects (i.e. MOTOR, CSHARP, JAVA) and the Core Server (i.e. SERVER) project are public.
Please include all of the following information when opening an issue:
Detailed steps to reproduce the problem, including full traceback, if possible.
The exact python version used, with patch level::
$ python -c "import sys; print(sys.version)"
The exact version of Motor used, with patch level::
$ python -c "import motor; print(motor.version)"
The exact version of PyMongo used, with patch level::
$ python -c "import pymongo; print(pymongo.version); print(pymongo.has_c())"
The exact Tornado version, if you are using Tornado::
$ python -c "import tornado; print(tornado.version)"
The operating system and version (e.g. RedHat Enterprise Linux 6.4, OSX 10.9.5, ...)

Motor can be installed with pip <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pip>
_::
$ pip install motor
Motor works in all the environments officially supported by Tornado or by asyncio. It requires:
Optional dependencies:
Motor supports same optional dependencies as PyMongo. Required dependencies can be installed along with Motor.
GSSAPI authentication requires gssapi
extra dependency. The correct
dependency can be installed automatically along with Motor::
$ pip install "motor[gssapi]"
similarly,
MONGODB-AWS authentication requires aws
extra dependency::
$ pip install "motor[aws]"
Support for mongodb+srv:// URIs requires srv
extra dependency::
$ pip install "motor[srv]"
OCSP requires ocsp
extra dependency::
$ pip install "motor[ocsp]"
Wire protocol compression with snappy requires snappy
extra dependency::
$ pip install "motor[snappy]"
Wire protocol compression with zstandard requires zstd
extra dependency::
$ pip install "motor[zstd]"
Client-Side Field Level Encryption requires encryption
extra dependency::
$ pip install "motor[encryption]"
You can install all dependencies automatically with the following command::
$ pip install "motor[gssapi,aws,ocsp,snappy,srv,zstd,encryption]"
See requirements <https://motor.readthedocs.io/en/stable/requirements.html>
