MongoEngine specify read preference on query












2














I am using Mongo 2.6, Pymongo 2.7.2 and Mongoengine 0.8.7. For a particular read query, I want to use the secondary of my replica set. Hence, as specified in the mongoengine documentation here I wrote my query as follows :



from pymongo.read_preferences import ReadPreference    
<collection_name>.objects().read_preference(ReadPreference.SECONDARY_PREFERRED)


However, the query is always going to the primary it seems ( The logs for this query are always seen only in the primary ). Is the syntax correct? If yes, how do I verify if the secondary is being queried?

  • Could be due to this bug if you're chaining another method such as skip, limit, etc.

  • I am chaining it with the order_by method but my Pymongo version is 2.7.2 and the bug is in any version >= 3.0. I guess it is broken in 2.7.2 as well.

  • The message reads "As of now, the fix only works for pymongo ver < 3.0.", so I thought both 2.7 and 3+ where affected (although differently). You may want to try without order_by, to double-check.

Figured out what the issue was. In the MongoEngine "connect" method, the replicaSet parameter needed to be specified as follows:



connect(db = "my_db", replicaSet = "my_replica_set_name", host = "hostname", port = "port_number")



The syntax of the read preference is correct as specified above. Passing in the replicaSet parameter made it work.
