I have this simple function for my raspberry pi and I made a python file it does work

factory = PiGPIOFactory(host='raspberry pi ip address')
Switch_1 = LED(18, pin_factory=factory)
Switch_2 = LED(23, pin_factory=factory)
Switch_3 = LED(24, pin_factory=factory)

Switch_1.on()
Switch_2.on()
Switch_3.on()

I tried to put it into another python file
and put it under a function which I called
def raspberry_pi():
but for whatever reason it doesn’t work I’m having a hard time understanding why

import requests

from tkinter import *
import tkinter as tk

from gpiozero import LED
from gpiozero.pins.pigpio import PiGPIOFactory

root = tk.Tk()
root.geometry("484x380+1300+200")  # Size of the window
# admin.resizable(False, False)  # disables resizing only
# admin.attributes("-toolwindow", True)  # True=disables maximum and minimum not x
root.title('Administrative Tools')

statusbar = tk.StringVar()
label_statusbar = Label(root, borderwidth=8, height=1, fg='#000000', bd=1, relief=SUNKEN,
                        anchor=W, textvariable=statusbar, font=('Arial', 15))
label_statusbar.pack(side=BOTTOM, fill=X)


def admin_on_closing():
    # this will ask are you sure yes or no
    # if yes it will terminate the window
    root.destroy()


def esp_easy_0():
    http = "ip address /login"  # this is the HTTP we are calling
    tab = ", new=2"  # this will add a new tab the 2 stands for second tab

    try:

        statusbar.set("Can't connect to the Device")
        root.after(3000, lambda: statusbar.set(''))

my_listbox1.bind('<Double-1>', lambda event: selecteditem())

# sets the scrollbar vertically
verscrlbar = ttk.Scrollbar(root, orient='vertical', command=my_listbox1.yview)
# places the scrollbar on the right
verscrlbar.place(x=459 + 3, y=38, height=182 + 20)  # the number after the + is fine-tuning
my_listbox1.configure(yscrollcommand=verscrlbar.set)

root.mainloop()

Under that function I can call the file and it will work
I just can’t put everything under the function I don’t understand what’s going on.

Well first off I posted the whole code because I was requested to

if I didn’t make myself clear I apologize for that

what I’m trying to do just for testing right now is turn on three LEDs on my raspberry pi

so I made this simple code that does so in python and called it lights_on and another one lights_off

and it works perfectly

so I made a another python file a menu and in that menu I called it raspberry pi and generated a function

I called the function raspberry_pi():

I put the contents of lights_on in that function

but for whatever reason it will not work

but if I use a simple command like open(lights_on) to call the lights_on file it will work

so I’m trying to find out why I can’t put the contents of lights_on under the function of raspberry_pi():
