Python TypeError in my-code,

I am getting this error while running the program below. I am running this code on CentOS. I don't know what is the problem is!

I'm stuck with this error: TypeError: put_photo() takes at most 3 arguments (4 given)

#!/usr/bin/python:
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from sys import argv
#import tweepy
import facebook

def main():
  cfg = {
    "page_id"      : "XXXX",
    "access_token" : "XXXX"
    }
  api = get_api(cfg)
  msg = "Hello, world!"
  status = api.put_wall_post(msg)

def get_api(cfg):
  graph = facebook.graphapi(cfg['access_token'])
  resp = graph.get_object('me/accounts')
  page_access_token = None
  for page in resp['data']:
    if page['id'] == cfg['page_id']:
      page_access_token = page['access_token']
  graph = facebook.GraphAPI(page_access_token)
  '''
  caption = "இன்ரைய நாள் காட்டி  #tamilcalender (©belongs to watermarked party)"
  albumid = ''
  with open(image.jpg,"rb") as image:
          posted_image_id = graph.put_photo(image, caption, albumid) '''
  return graph
if __name__ == "__main__":
  main()

put_photo API takes only two arguments.

  • image - A file object representing the image to be uploaded.
  • album_path - A path representing where the image should be uploaded. Defaults to /me/photos which creates/uses a custom album for each Facebook application.

Please check this link for more info.

You are passing three aruguments - image, caption, albumid.

Along with these three, as explained in above comments by @kindall and @BrandonIbbotson, the one mandatory argument is passed which is related to self.

Just check above link for examples and just pass two valid arguments.
