Custom Response Handler

Hi,

I installed RestApi modular input 1.3.5 and I created a custom handler in responsehandlers.py (that I have configured in the tool afterwards):

class myCustomHandler:
def init(self,**args):
pass
def call(self, response_object,raw_response_output,response_type,req_args,endpoint):

    file = open("/home/fabric/updatePlatform.log", "a")
    file.write(raw_response_output+"\n")
    file.close()

Even if I uninstall the modular input or I restart splunk server, the Rest call is done in the background once and again. Do you know what can be happening?

After restarting the server, the node seems to be ok.
