How to access param added via register_action_param

[rgstephens]

Seems like this must be simple but the docs show an example of register_action_param called db.

Let's say I have an existing action called start_round which already has a parameter called user_id. How do I access db?

async def start_round(db, user_id, context: Optional[dict] = None):

If I define it as one of the parameters to the action like above, I get the error: Error while execution start_round: start_round() missing 1 required positional argument: 'db'

Hi @rgstephens !

The parameters that are registered using register_action_param are passed automatically to the actions when they are invoked. You can think of them as keyword parameters with default values in Python.

If you're getting the error above, it looks like the registration did not take place correctly. Can you share a minimal example to reproduce this. Thanks!

You're right, the registration wasn't happening becuase my config.py was in the actions directory instead of the config directory.
