How to change Pymongo database connection

Question

I do have a database named users but pymongo is looking for a db named as app is there any way to change to Pymongo connection method ?

this one is working if i crate a db named as app;

app = Flask(__name__)
mongo = PyMongo(app)

i want to connect like this but i do get an error for that ;

mongo = PyMongo('users')

I have found my answer;

client = MongoClient('localhost')
db = client['dbname']
collection = db.collection_name

app = Flask(__name__)
app.config['MONGO_DBNAME'] = 'dbname'
mongo = PyMongo(app)

This allows you to use flask_pymongo, more info here
