I want to create a DBRef manually so that I can add an additional field to it. However, when I try to pass the following:
{'$ref': 'projects', '$id': '1029412409721', 'project_name': 'My Project'}
Pymongo raises an error:
pymongo.errors.InvalidName: key '$id' must not start with '$'
It would seem that pymongo reserve the $
for the special key, leading me to wonder if it is even possible to do what I'm trying to do?
