[SOLVED] In python how to get normal username from the root user?

Issue

When I want a user directory as a normal user in Python3, from terminal

>>> os.path.expanduser('~')
/home/user

When I run in the root (sudo su)

 >>> os.path.expanduser('~')
    /root/

Is there any way to get the /home/user directory from the root user in python3?

Solution

os.path.expanduser('~{user}')

Where {user} is any user, in your case...user:

os.path.expanduser('~user')
