Connection refused to mongodb after running docker compose up

I am getting the following error after running docker compose up and going in 0.0.0..:8000/docs to use a get method, in a fastapi project,enter image description here

The .env file content

MONGODB_URL = mongodb://localhost:27017/

MONGO_HOST = "0.0.0.0"
MONGO_PORT = 27017
MONGO_USER = ""
MONGO_PASS = ""
DATABASE_NAME = "myDatabase"
TEST1_COLLECTION="TEST1_COLLECTION"
TEST2_COLLECTION="TEST2_COLLECTION"
TEST3_COLLECTION="TEST3_COLLECTION"

The Dockerfile content:

FROM tiangolo/uvicorn-gunicorn-fastapi:python3.9
COPY ./requirements.txt /app/requirements.txt 
RUN pip install --no-cache-dir --upgrade -r /app/requirements.txt
COPY ./app /app/app
WORKDIR /app/app/
CMD ["uvicorn", "main:app", "--host", "0.0.0.0", "--port", "8000"]

The docker-compose.yml content

version: "3.9"
services:
 app:
  build: .
  command: uvicorn app.main:app --host 0.0.0.0
  ports:
    - "8000:8000"
  depends_on:
  - db
 db:
   image: mongo
   ports:
     - "27017:27017"
   volumes:
     - ./data:/data/db

What am I doing wrong, cause I just need to use the environment variables in docker and run the application?

    I believe @MatsLindh might be right. You need to address the host of another container with running instance of MongoDB inside the Docker internal network (which is db container in your case).
    Try using MONGODB_URL = mongodb://db:27017/

    add container_name to db service in docker-compose, and then use it’s name as host when connecting to in python code.

    eg.

    mongodb://root:example@container_name:27017/?authMechanism=DEFAULT
