MONGODB_SERVER = "localhost"
MONGODB_PORT = 27017
MONGODB_DB = "test"
MONGODB_COLLECTION = "raw_prod"

Here is the code for pipelines.py

class TutorialPipeline(object):

    def __init__(self):
        connection = pymongo.Connection(settings['MONGODB_SERVER'], settings['MONGODB_PORT'])
        db = connection[settings['MONGODB_DB']]

there is no such thing as 'Connection' in current pymongo (version 3) to connect you must use MongoClient
to connect to a db on local host and standard 27017 port

from pymongo import MongoClient; c = MongoClient()
