RequestHandler Inheritence, passing Parameters to base class

[Amit Shah]

Hello all,

I have seen that params can be passed to requesthandler with the use of initialize() method overriding.  However, if we have an inheritence chain, how can parameters be passed to the parent class without passing both parameters to the child class?

class BaseHandler(RequestHandler):

                def initialize(self, SERVICE2):

                    self.service = SERVICE2

                def get(self, username):

                    ...

class MainHandler(BaseHandler):

               def initialize(self,SERVICE1):

                    self.service=SERVICE1

            app = Application([

                (r'/user/(.*)', MainHandler, dict(database=database)),

                ])

The same way you'd do it with a normal constructor instead of initialize():  The subclass's version must also accept the superclass's arguments (or **kwargs) and pass them along to the super() version.
