Python3 : Print returned values from the function in another file

Question

I am working on a Jupyterhub project and beginner Python user. I would like to print returned values from the function in another py file for dubug.

a.py :

class TestSpawner(SlurmSpawner):
    def _options_form_default(self):
        return """
        <label for="queue">node type</label>
        <select name="queue">
          <option value="standard">standard</option>
          <option value="dev-test">TEST</option>
        </select>
        <label for="runtime">Job duration</label>
        <select name="runtime">
          <option value="1:00:00">1 hour</option>
          <option value="2:00:00">2 hours</option>
        </select>
        """
    def options_from_form(self, formdata):
        print ( formdata.get('queue', [''])[0].strip())
        options = {}
        options['queue'] = formdata.get('queue', [''])[0].strip()
        options['runtime'] = formdata.get('runtime', [''])[0].strip()
        print (options)
        return options

b.py :

import sys
from a import *
print (options)
print (queue)

I can see the queue and options values using print (options) in a.py , but I am not sure how I can print the values in b.py and make sure it gets correct values from a.py . Please help me and Thanks.

Import your module, make an instance, and call the method in b.py :

import a

spawner = a.TestSpawner()

formdata = 'my form data'  # add your data here
print(options_from_form(formdata))
