@patber did you ever figure that out? Would love to see your solution if you found one!

Use the Mongoc package:

```
import Mongoc
client = Mongoc.Client("mongodb+srv://<user>:<pass>@cluster0.bpkvi0i.mongodb.net/<db>") # change to your username, password, database respectively
Monogc.ping(client) # if you get TLS problem, set SSL_CERT_FILE to /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt or wherever your cert/pem is
```
