Access method from different package in Python

Question

I am trying to automate android game. I have so many methods so I break my code in 3 parts. main, functions and collectors. I have a method in functions which is:

def search_image(image, confidence=.6, click=True):
location = pyautogui.locateCenterOnScreen(image, confidence=confidence)
if location is not None:
    if click:
        pyautogui.click(location)
    return location
else:
    return False

But I cant access it in collectors, like this:

from functions import*
def collect_product():
    if search_image(r'Resources\NewOrderAvailable.png') is not False:
        search_image(r'Resources\NewOrderAvailable2.png')
        for item in range(0, 6):
            search_image(r'Resources\Collect.png', confidence=.8)
        search_image(r'Resources\Back.png')
        search_image(r'Resources\CloseOrderMenu.png')
    else:
        return False

I got NameError: name 'search_image' is not defined. I need to duplicate that method to make it work. I was wondering what went wrong and how to fix it?

Your function is not an instance of the class. You need to add a self keyword to make it accessible outside.

def search_image(self, image, confidence=.6, click=True):
location = pyautogui.locateCenterOnScreen(image, confidence=confidence)
if location is not None:
    if click:
        pyautogui.click(location)
    return location
else:
    return False

Try

import functions

functions.search_image('...')

I tested it just a moment ago. You have no whitespace between import and *
