Unclear how to use external databases like MongoDB about pyot HOT 1 CLOSED

@pi314ever The implementation of MongoDB in Pyot is completely internally managed cache store, if a MongoDB is configured in the pipeline, Pyot will look for data in each of the stores in a sequential manner, so if MongoDB is before RiotAPI, then it will first look into MongoDB, if the data exists then return it, if it does not exists, proceed to the next store, at some point it will require to pull data from the source RiotAPI, this data is then replicated across the previous stores for cache purposes. Although this cache store can used for long-term storage by configuring expiration to never, it was primarily designed to be a cache. Here are the configuration details you need to plug into the pipeline: https://pyot.iann838.com/stores/mongodb.
If you wish to have complete control over MongoDB, then please do not use the MongoDB cache store provided by Pyot, instead configure your own storage for your specific use case.
