This addresses #1168 (an old issue 馃槃).
This pull request opens door for projects like montydb or mongita that provids mongo-like alternative for testing or simple production usage, able to gain benefit from mongoengine.
There's some small amount of discussions in said projects:
scottrogowski/mongita#4
davidlatwe/montydb#64
And the only workaround for this is to monkey-patch
pymongo.MongoClient
just like what #1168 has concluded.But thanks to the evolution that mongoengine has been through, the codebase seems able to enable this feature easily. Hance this PR.
Please let me know what you think, thanks.
