How to handle custom parameters in rest modular input

cafissimo — Wed, 04 Oct 2017 07:55:13 GMT

Hello,
I have developed a custom response handler class for TA.rest modular input and I would like to pass a custom parameter to it.
I know this is possible, by setting custom parameters in the input configuration page (key1=value, key2=value).
What I can't figure out is how I can access these parameters in my custom class.

class customHandler:

     def __init__(self,**args):
         pass

     def __call__(self, response_object,raw_response_output,response_type,req_args,endpoint):
         if response_type == "json":
             output = json.loads(raw_response_output)
             for record in output["logins"]:
                 print_xml_stream(json.dumps(record))
         else:
             print_xml_stream(raw_response_output)

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
