Sort the Result
Use the sort() method to sort the result in ascending or descending order.
The sort() method takes one parameter for "fieldname" and one parameter for "direction" (ascending is the default direction).
Sort the result alphabetically by name
import pymongo
myclient = pymongo.MongoClient("mongodb://localhost:27017/")
mydb = myclient["mydatabase"]
mycol = mydb["customers"]
mydoc = mycol.find().sort("name")
for x in mydoc:
print(x)Sort Descending
Use the value -1 as the second parameter to sort descending.
sort("name", 1) #ascending sort("name", -1) #descending
Example
Sort the result reverse alphabetically by name:
import pymongo
myclient = pymongo.MongoClient("mongodb://localhost:27017/")
mydb = myclient["mydatabase"]
mycol = mydb["customers"]
mydoc = mycol.find().sort("name", -1)
for x in mydoc:
print(x)
