Handling exception from a module

[dchi2]

Thank you for your continued assistance. I see now that the whole issue is due to me stupidly editing the module. I commented out a section of the run() function in pdftitle.py as I could not otherwise work out how to pass a file name to it.

This was on a previous night while I was somewhat intoxicated...

Now however, if I go to the original pdftitle.py, I cannot determine how to pass the argument correctly?

PdfTitle = pdftitle.run(pdf=FilePath)

def run():
    try:
        parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(
            prog='pdftitle',
            description='Extracts the title of a PDF article',
            epilog='')
        parser.add_argument('-p', '--pdf',
                            help='pdf file', required=True)
        parser.add_argument('--replace-missing-char',
                            help='replace missing char with the one specified')
        parser.add_argument('-v', '--verbose',
                            action='store_true',
                            help='enable verbose logging')
        args = parser.parse_args()
        global VERBOSE, MISSING_CHAR
        VERBOSE = args.verbose
        MISSING_CHAR = args.replace_missing_char
        title = get_title_from_file(args.pdf)
        if title is None:
            return 1
        else:
            print(title)
            return 0
    except Exception as e:
        if VERBOSE:
            traceback.print_exc()
        return 1


if __name__ == '__main__':
    sys.exit(run())

Error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "rename_post.py", line 40, in <module>
    pdf_recurse(args.path)
  File "rename_post.py", line 19, in pdf_recurse
    PdfTitle = pdftitle.run(pdf=FilePath)
TypeError: run() got an unexpected keyword argument 'pdf'

Very sorry for the false path.
