Maya python: button calling a function

dlz

Anyone knows how to call a function with a button inside a class? 

at the moment i have that code:

#button calling functions

import maya.cmds as cmds

import maya.mel as mel

from functools import partial

class B:

    text_entered="a"

    def __init__(self):

        self.create_window()

    def printText(self):

        print(self.text_entered)

        return

    def create_window(self):

        window = cmds.window()

        cmds.rowColumnLayout(numberOfColumns=2, columnWidth=[(1, 50), (1, 70)])

        cmds.text(label='Name')

        axis = cmds.textField()

        cmds.showWindow(window)

        self.text_entered = cmds.textField(axis, text=True, query=True)

        cmds.button(label="Apply", command = partial(self.printText))

        return       

B()

But i get that error
# Error: printText() takes exactly 1 argument (2 given) # 

Any ideas?

What short of script are you trying to write?

when you write print(self.text_entered) in this statement it seems like there is 2 arguments or it doesn't return self.text_entered because the def create_window(self) doesn't store (self.text_entered) . maybe try print(self)

sorry my scripting is a bit rusty

Try
  def printText(self, *args):

Sorry i was outside for a few days and i didnt has internet connection.
I finally ended with a solution of make a function inside a function:

import maya.cmds as cmds

class B:
    def __init__(self):
        self.create_window()

    def create_window(self):
        if cmds.window("UI", exists=True):
            cmds.deleteUI("UI")
        win = cmds.window("UI")
        cmds.columnLayout()
        textEntered = cmds.textField()

        def print_text_contents(a):
            print cmds.textField(textEntered, query=True, text=True)

        cmds.button(label='Confirm', command=print_text_contents)
        cmds.showWindow(win)


B<span>()
</span>

IacopoAntonelli i tried that too but it printed nothing i supose because it gets the text before i entered a text in the textField
