   I would like to encapsulate the functionality as a class, but when I try I get some strange errors. How should I encapsulate them correctly?

`
class Start_Handler(object):

def __init__(self, bot = bot) -> None:
    self.bot = bot

@bot.message_handler(commands = ['start'], content_types = ['text'], chat_types = ['private'])
def start_message(self, message):
    bot.send_photo(
        chat_id = message.from_user.id,
        photo = InputFile("Bot/assest/logo.jpg"),
        caption = f"*🥳 Congratulation, [_{message.from_user.first_name}_](tg://user?id={message.from_user.id}) has become a member of our\.*",
        parse_mode = 'MarkdownV2'
    )

`

Start_Handler(bot=bot).start_message()
TypeError: Start_Handler.start_message() missing 1 required positional argument: 'message'

You cannot use method to handle message directly.

I do it like this:

def __init__(self, bot = bot) -> None:
    self.bot = bot

    @self.bot.message_handler(commands = ['start'], content_types = ['text'], chat_types = ['private'])
    def _start_message(message):
        self.start_message(message)

def start_message(self, message):
    ...

I don't like it but at least it works.

It feels strange to be encapsulated in this way. Is there a good way to wrap bot.message_handler in Start_Handler if I want to. I want to handle start and three to five other commands in Start_Handler.
