Can’t seem to get javascript code working from child theme

by

As I said, you have a few problems with this code.

  1. closing bracket } for no reason.
  2. a extra , in the wp_enqueue_script at the end
  3. add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_scripts_method'); is inside my_scripts_method function

This is your current code with some formating and comments to show the problematic code sections.

<?php
/**
 * Astra Child Theme functions and definitions
 *
 * @link https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/basics/theme-functions/
 *
 * @package Astra Child
 * @since 1.0.0
 */

/**
 * Define Constants
 */
define( 'CHILD_THEME_ASTRA_CHILD_VERSION', '1.0.0' );

/**
 * Enqueue styles
 */
function child_enqueue_styles() {
    wp_enqueue_style( 'astra-child-theme-css', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/style.css', array('astra-theme-css'), CHILD_THEME_ASTRA_CHILD_VERSION, 'all' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'child_enqueue_styles', 15 );

// this closing bracket is not needed
}

function my_scripts_method() {
    // this functions contains , at the end, not needed
    wp_enqueue_script('custom-script',get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/custom_script.js',);
    // this add_action cannot be inside its own  the callback function
    add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_scripts_method');
}

This is the corrected code.

<?php
/**
 * Astra Child Theme functions and definitions
 *
 * @link https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/basics/theme-functions/
 *
 * @package Astra Child
 * @since 1.0.0
 */

/**
 * Define Constants
 */
define( 'CHILD_THEME_ASTRA_CHILD_VERSION', '1.0.0' );

/**
 * Enqueue styles
 */
function child_enqueue_styles() {
    wp_enqueue_style( 'astra-child-theme-css', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/style.css', array('astra-theme-css'), CHILD_THEME_ASTRA_CHILD_VERSION, 'all' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'child_enqueue_styles', 15 );

function my_scripts_method() {
    // this functions contains , at the end, not needed
    wp_enqueue_script('custom-script',get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/custom_script.js');
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_scripts_method');
