Accessing built-in runner parameters in Python Action Runners

[TimothyDJones]

Hello! I feel like this is a question that is (or should be!) obvious, but I've struggled for quite some time to tease out the answer on my own and by searching the old forums and elsewhere.

I want to use the built-in runner parameters, such as env, timeout, and log_level, on a Python Action Runner (python-script). The referenced documentation indicates that these parameters are available in Action Runner instance, which presumably is an instance of the PythonRunner class (please confirm). However, I've been unable to determine how to access this class from within the class hierarchy via the class instance created from a class inherited from "base" Action class. Can you provide any guidance on this?

A very brittle/kludgy workaround that I've found for log_level is the utility method below that takes an instance of the Action class as input and uses introspection to find the internal _log_level parameter. This seems like a rather convoluted solution and subject to breaking when class hierarchy/structure changes.

def get_log_level_from_action_instance(action_instance):
    _action_svc = action_instance.__dict__.get("action_service", None)
    _action_wrp = _action_svc.__dict__.get("_action_wrapper", None)

    if _action_wrp:
        return (_action_wrp.get("_log_level"))

Thanks for any help/guidance!
