python - How to make a function accept runtime arguments -

i want define function such want accept command line arguments

below code

def tc1(resloc):     uiautomator import device;     'do activity'     open(resloc, 'a') text_file:             text_file.write('tc1 passed \n')             text_file.close()     else:         open(resloc, 'a') text_file:             text_file.write('tc1 failed \n')             text_file.close()      if __name__ == '__main__':     tc1("c:\\<pathtoautomation>\\results\results.txt") 

now when execute same using command line python continues refer path mentioned here tc1("c:\\<pathtoautomation>\\results\results.txt") , doesn't consider pass in runtime command line

\scripts>python.exe trail.py c:\\<pathtoautomationresults>\\results\results.txt 

what looking sys.argv

the list of command line arguments passed python script. argv[0] script name (it operating system dependent whether full pathname or not). if command executed using -c command line option interpreter, argv[0] set string '-c'. if no script name passed python interpreter, argv[0] empty string.

to loop on standard input, or list of files given on command line, see fileinput module.

you use like:

import sys  def main(argv):     # argv.   if __name__ == "__main__":    main(sys.argv[1:])  # argv[0] current filename. 

and call using

python yourfile.py yourargsgohere
