Hey! Can I take up this issue?

[raj454raj]

Hey @punndcoder28 ! You can surely take this up, let me know if you have any issues and feel free to raise a PR

[punndcoder28]

Hey. If my understanding of the issue is correct do you want to replace the static method is_invalid_handle(handle with just _validate_handle(self)?

[raj454raj]

Hey @punndcoder28 ,

It's not that straight forward.

To use __validate_handle we need self.access_token to be set via __get_access_token method. You will have to think about how to make it independent of self and make it static method.

You can do something like the following -.

@staticmethod
def is_invalid_handle(handle):
    ...

@staticmethod
def __get_access_token():
    ...

@staticmethod
def __validate_handle(handle, access_token):
    ...

You can also test this without needing the Codechef api tokens, just return some dummy values and make sure with print statements are printed from web2py shell python web2py -S stopstalk -M
