Why there is no __init__ in the paginator classes??

[ZeyadMoustafaKamal]

Well, this is weird to me as I have no idea why this hasn't already been implemented. What I mean is that it's normal to think about. Anyway let's say I want to add something like the page_size in the PageNumberPagination what will I have to do ?? I will need to subclass the PageNumberPagination or add it in the defaults in the settings.py but here is the problem. what if I had different pagination parameters depending on something? like the notifications, the comments, the posts ...etc. All of them will be different; this way, I will need to subclass the paginator class for every use case.

So I want to do one of the two things. maybe provide a way to add some class variables in the views or viewsets that control these things or allow to pass it to the 'init' (or both) also I am ready to implement any of those and open a PR. I want your suggestions for this. what do you think??

No. I am not talking about a package. I am talking about __init__ the method. like this

class Foo:
    def __init__(self, bar):
        self.bar = bar
my_foo = Foo("Something")

I think that you will know what I am talking about if you just read it.

Sorry. I misread.
