class Handler(object):
    """The base class for all update handlers. Create custom handlers by inheriting from it.

    Attributes:
        callback (:obj:`callable`): The callback function for this handler.
        pass_update_queue (:obj:`bool`): Determines whether ``update_queue`` will be
            passed to the callback function.
        pass_job_queue (:obj:`bool`): Determines whether ``job_queue`` will be passed to
            the callback function.
        pass_user_data (:obj:`bool`): Determines whether ``user_data`` will be passed to
            the callback function.
        pass_chat_data (:obj:`bool`): Determines whether ``chat_data`` will be passed to
            the callback function.

    Note:
        :attr:`pass_user_data` and :attr:`pass_chat_data` determine whether a ``dict`` you
        can use to keep any data in will be sent to the :attr:`callback` function. Related to
        either the user or the chat that the update was sent in. For each update from the same user
        or in the same chat, it will be the same ``dict``.

        Note that this is DEPRECATED, and you should use context based callbacks. See
        https://git.io/fxJuV for more info.

    Args:
        callback (:obj:`callable`): The callback function for this handler. Will be called when
            :attr:`check_update` has determined that an update should be processed by this handler.
            Callback signature for context based API:

            ``def callback(update: Update, context: CallbackContext)``

            The return value of the callback is usually ignored except for the special case of
            :class:`telegram.ext.ConversationHandler`.
        pass_update_queue (:obj:`bool`, optional): If set to ``True``, a keyword argument called
            ``update_queue`` will be passed to the callback function. It will be the ``Queue``
            instance used by the :class:`telegram.ext.Updater` and :class:`telegram.ext.Dispatcher`
            that contains new updates which can be used to insert updates. Default is ``False``.
            DEPRECATED: Please switch to context based callbacks.
        pass_job_queue (:obj:`bool`, optional): If set to ``True``, a keyword argument called
            ``job_queue`` will be passed to the callback function. It will be a
            :class:`telegram.ext.JobQueue` instance created by the :class:`telegram.ext.Updater`
            which can be used to schedule new jobs. Default is ``False``.
            DEPRECATED: Please switch to context based callbacks.
        pass_user_data (:obj:`bool`, optional): If set to ``True``, a keyword argument called
            ``user_data`` will be passed to the callback function. Default is ``False``.
            DEPRECATED: Please switch to context based callbacks.
        pass_chat_data (:obj:`bool`, optional): If set to ``True``, a keyword argument called
            ``chat_data`` will be passed to the callback function. Default is ``False``.
            DEPRECATED: Please switch to context based callbacks.
