WatchedFileHandler.reopenIfNeeded() usage - buntu - Nov-09-2018

Hi -- I'm trying to figure out the right way to call WatchedFileHandler.reopenIfNeeded() to help reopen a new file if the file was rotated by logrotate:
https://docs.python.org/3/library/logging.handlers.html#logging.handlers.WatchedFileHandler.reopenIfNeeded

I tried this but seems to fail with errors:

handler = logging.handlers.WatchedFileHandler(somefile)
handler.setFormatter(formatter)
handler.reopenIfNeeded()
Thanks!

Actually typo in my code, sorry about that.
