Providing arguments to an Action superclass constructor

[0xliam]

Hi there,

I am very new to Stackstorm and I am wondering if the following is possible.

I have a class derived from the Action class, which I would like to use as my base for all actions in my pack. This class foo processes various config options, and also requires an argument called some_var, which I would like to be set at runtime.

I have another class derived from foo called bar.

class foo(Action):
  def __init__(self, some_var):
    self.some_var = some_var # do something with some var

class bar(foo):
  def __init__(self, some_var):
    super().__init__(some_var=some_var)
  def run():
    ...

When an action tries to instantiate bar(), the some_var argument appears to be consumed by the run() method and not by the superclass constructor.

Is it possible to provide arguments to a superclass constructor in a Stackstorm action?

Alternatively, is it possible to provide a config option at runtime that is only used in that instance of an action/workflow?

Thanks in advance! :)
