Excuse me, why do I keep reporting “mongoengine.connection.ConnectionFailure: You have not defined a default connection”errors?

What does your config look like?

I have the same issue on Python 3.7.7

My conection code is :
host = "mongodb://localhost/telethon"
session = MongoSession(phone, host=host)
client = TelegramClient(session, API_ID, API_HASH)

my config is :

Sorry I need to update the readme. This expects you to use mongoengine to create a connection. Something like:

MONGO_DB = "telethon"
MONGO_URI = f"mongodb://localhost/{MONGO_DB}"
mongoengine.connect(MONGO_DB, host=MONGO_URI)
session = MongoSession(MONGO_DB, host=MONGO_URI)
client = TelegramClient(session, API_ID, API_HASH)

client = TelegramClient(session, API_ID, API_HASH)

Thank's it works, for future references need add : from mongoengine import connect

A limitation that I see is that there is no set for multiple sessions, all new login replace the current Session. On SQLALquemy version we set a session, so multiples sessions can be store in database.

I based it off the SQLite version, but I'd be happy for a PR if that's something you want to add
