You're making an invalid assumption, basically.
The parameters you're wanting to retrieve are parameters from the URI.
Those parameters, however, are only present *after* routing has taken
place -- they are the result of a positive match on a given route, which
then results in injecting parameters into the request object.
Unfortunately, routing happens _after_ application initialization (which
includes bootstrapping). So, you can't access those request variables
from within your resource plugin; they simply haven't been discovered
yet.
If a resource needs to do initialization that's based on routing
information, the best course of action is to rewrite your resource as a
front controller plugin that operates either at routeShutdown() or
later. At that time, you'll have the request variables, and you can do
further initializations.
