        """Initiate LiberviaPage instance

        LiberviaPages are the main resources of Libervia, using easy to set python files
        The non mandatory arguments are the variables found in page_meta.py
        @param host(Libervia): the running instance of Libervia
        @param vhost_root(web_resource.Resource): root resource of the virtual host which
            handle this page.
        @param root_dir(unicode): aboslute file path of the page
        @param url(unicode): relative URL to the page
            this URL may not be valid, as pages may require path arguments
        @param name(unicode, None): if not None, a unique name to identify the page
            can then be used for e.g. redirection
            "/" is not allowed in names (as it can be used to construct URL paths)
        @param redirect(unicode, None): if not None, this page will be redirected.
            A redirected parameter is used as in self.pageRedirect.
            parse_url will not be skipped
            using this redirect parameter is called "full redirection"
            using self.pageRedirect is called "partial redirection" (because some
            rendering method can still be used, e.g. parse_url)
        @param access(unicode, None): permission needed to access the page
            None means public access.
            Pages inherit from parent pages: e.g. if a "settings" page is restricted
            to admins, and if "settings/blog" is public, it still can only be accessed by
            admins. See C.PAGES_ACCESS_* for details
        @param dynamic(bool): if True, activate websocket for bidirectional communication
        @param parse_url(callable, None): if set it will be called to handle the URL path
            after this method, the page will be rendered if noting is left in path
            (request.postpath) else a the request will be transmitted to a subpage
        @param prepare_render(callable, None): if set, will be used to prepare the
            rendering. That often means gathering data using the bridge
        @param render(callable, None): if not template is set, this method will be
            called and what it returns will be rendered.
            This method is mutually exclusive with template and must return a unicode
            string.
        @param template(unicode, None): path to the template to render.
            This method is mutually exclusive with render
        @param on_data_post(callable, None): method to call when data is posted
            None if data post is not handled
            on_data_post can return a string with following value:
                - C.POST_NO_CONFIRM: confirm flag will not be set
            on_data_post can raise following exceptions:
                - exceptions.DataError: value is incorrect, message will be displayed
                    as a notification
        @param on_data(callable, None): method to call when dynamic data is sent
            this method is used with Libervia's websocket mechanism
        @param on_signal(callable, None): method to call when a registered signal is
            received. This method is used with Libervia's websocket mechanism
        @param url_cache(boolean): if set, result of parse_url is cached (per profile).
            Useful when costly calls (e.g. network) are done while parsing URL.
        @param replace_on_conflict(boolean): if True, don't raise ConflictError if a
            page of this name already exists, but replace it
