you can pass only the path and then play with the object file inside the function:

functionForFile(file_path)

if you want to pass only the object file you can do:

of = open(<file_path>, 'r')
functionForFile(of)

Do

f = open("your-text-file.txt")
content = f.read()
f.close()

that way you get the content of the file

You can use something like this:

with open("text.txt", "r") as f:
    text = f.read()

functionForFile(text)
