Use the path as an argument in shell file from python

Question

I want to call from python a shell script which contain the running of another python function. I would like to use for that subprocess method. My code so far look like:

arguments = ["./my_shell.sh", path]
ret_val = subprocess.Popen(arguments, stdout=subprocess.PIPE)

while the script is the following:

#!/bin/sh

cd ... 
python -c "from file import method; 
method()"

How can I give in the directory (to cd) of the path that I pass as an argument in the shell file?

You can access your arguments as $1, $2, etc. So your cd command would simply be cd $1.
