It works well if I use self.mongo in class Application . But I got an error if I use it in class BaseHandler .

Why?

Answer 1

You've defined db as a property, meaning that you don't have to call it. But then you call it!

Either remove the @property or use self.db instead of self.db() .

As always, Python's error messages are informative and you should look at them! In this case, you can see

TypeError: 'Database' object is not callable. If you meant to call the 'meowth' method on a 'Connection' object it is failing because no such method exists.

which means that you are calling (ie like a function) a database object somewhere. Where?

File "/home/aveline/Meowth/web/handlers/base.py", line 19, in init_session
    self.session_id = self.db().meowth_sessions.save(

See? self.db is a property, so gives you self.application.mongo . Then you call it, so the above line is equivalent to

self.session_id = self.application.mongo().meowth_sessions.save(

which is obviously wrong.
