MongoEngine and FastAPI: sessions via dependency injection?

[Erik Williamson]

Hi All,

I'm working on a new project that uses MongoEngine with FastAPI. There's not much online  for reference; it seems like it may be an unpopular combination. However:

I see that people use dependency injection when using FastAPI with RDBMSs - so for each endpoint called it will inject a DB session to be used for that endpoint. Is that necessary when using MongoEngine? It doesn't seem to be, but I wanted to be sure before I go too far down this road.

Thanks,

Erik.
