Trying to connect to pymongo using python 3

Question

I tried to connect to mongodb using pymongo using:

Code:

from pymongo import MongoClient
Client = MongoClient()
db = Client["Libraby"]
collection = db["book"]
book = {}
book["title"] = "XYZ"
book["name"] = "abc"
book["published"] = 2014
collection.insert(book)

And I got the error as:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "`<pyshell#8>`", line 1, in `<module>`
`collection.insert(book)`
  File `"C:\Python34\lib\site-packages\pymongo\collection.py"`, line 2935, in `insert`

**pymongo.errors.ServerSelectionTimeoutError: localhost:27017: [WinError 10061] No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it**

if `nc -vz localhost 27017` gives you the same thing then your mongodb server is not running on your machine. — Ghilas BELHADJ, Jan 19 '18 at 12:55
Look at [this section](https://docs.mongodb.com/tutorials/install-mongodb-on-windows/#step-2-start-mongodb-) here — Ghilas BELHADJ, Jan 19 '18 at 13:01
You may want to fix this snippet `db = Client["Libraby"]`. This could be the source of the issue if your table is named `Library` in mongo, but otherwise it will cause issues elsewhere when `Library` is correctly spelled. Also, when I recently set up Mongo I had a difficult time at first but I found mongo's Compass quite useful for visualizing what was actually happening in my `Table`. This will also help you follow through the steps as you get started. — Brandon Barney, Jan 19 '18 at 13:10
