mongoengine.connection.ConnectionError: Cannot connect to database default #2

I got this error when running run.py

(flask-example) C:\Users\David\python-ninja\flask-example>python run.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "run.py", line 4, in <module>
    app = create_app('settings')

    raise ConnectionError("Cannot connect to database %s :\n%s" % (alias, e))
mongoengine.connection.ConnectionError: Cannot connect to database default :
False is not a read preference.

I fixed it by adding to settings.py

from pymongo import read_preferences

and

'read_preference': read_preferences.ReadPreference.PRIMARY

to MONGODB_SETTINGS.

hi I have the same error where do you put the MONGODB_SETTINGS? and 'read_preference': read_preferences.ReadPreference.PRIMARY?
