could be something like:
----
params = {
'3102EHD-Lanka-1108': '3102EHD-01108',
'3102EHD-01109': '3102DHD-0119',
# ... etc, for each of those elif choices
}
# one function with a variable for the parts that change
function dosomething(identifier):
s.exec_command('export DISPLAY=:0.0; cd /Downloads/Hourly/win.sh')
sftp = s.open_sftp()
sftp.get('/Downloads/Hourly/{}/{}.png'.format(identifier,identifier),
'/Downloads/Hourly/{}.png'.format(identifier))
sftp.close()
print 'file recieved'
# do this as usual
out = stdout.read()
# then call the function with the variable
dosomething(params[out])
----
with a bit of work, it seems like that could be simplified even more, but
the general idea is that the elif blocks with lots of boilerplate repeated
over and over is generally a sign of bad/lazy code.
