Here is what I use (in a file models/0.py): import pymongo from pymongo import ASCENDING, DESCENDING
def make_mongo_connection():
mdb = pymongo.Connection()
return mdb
mdb = cache.ram('mongodb', make_mongo_connection, 0)
# in the code I use mdb as needed.
# On a busy site, it may make sense to have several of these
connections available to use in a pool
