Controller method not getting called

I just duplicated a doctype and in the backend I defined the before_save methodbut it is not getting called…

Here is the code snippet

from future import unicode_literals
import frappe
from frappe.model.document import Document

class ShiftTry(Document):
def on_update(self):
frappe.msgprint(__(“Custom Message”))

Can someone tell me where I am going wrong?

First, wrap your code snippets in triple backticks so you can have correct indentation and syntax highlighting:

from future import unicode_literals
import frappe
from frappe.model.document import Document

class ShiftTry(Document):
    def on_update(self):  # this is the problem
        frappe.msgprint(__(“Custom Message”))

    def before_save(self): # this should work
        frappe.msgprint(__(“Custom Message”))

Here is the documentation.
