Calling one method from another within same class in Python

by

To call the method, you need to qualify function with self.. In addition to that, if you want to pass a filename, add a filename parameter (or other name you want).

class MyHandler(FileSystemEventHandler):

    def on_any_event(self, event):
        srcpath = event.src_path
        print (srcpath, 'has been ',event.event_type)
        print (datetime.datetime.now())
        filename = srcpath[12:]
        self.dropbox_fn(filename) # <----

    def dropbox_fn(self, filename):  # <-----
        print('In dropbox_fn:', filename)
