class tkinterquickhelper.funcwin.frame_function.FrameFunction(parent, function, restore=True, width=100, raise_exception=False, overwrite=None, hide=False, command_leave=None, key_save='e')[source]

Bases: Frame

Creating a Frame window for a function. It will create an entry control for every parameter. If one of the parameter is ‘password’, the window will show only stars. The windows proposes to store the value and to restore them on the next call. This functionality is disable when ‘password’ is present in the list of parameters.

Parameters:
  • parent – window parent

  • function – function object (can be a string)

  • restore – if True, check if existing saved parameters are present

  • width – number of characters in every Entry field

  • raise_exception – raise an exception instead of catching it

  • overwrite – parameters to overwrite

  • hide – if True, hide the window after clicking on OK

  • command_leave – if not None, this function will be called when clicking on Cancel or Leave

  • key_save – suffix to add to the filename used to store parameters

static open_window(func, top_level_window=None, params=None, key_save='f', do_not_open=False)[source]

Opens a tkinter window to run a function. It adds entries for the parameters, it displays the help associated to this function, and it allows use to run the function in a window frame. Logs are also displayed. It also memorizes the latest values used (stored in <user>/TEMP folder).

Parameters:
  • func – function (function object)

  • top_level_window – if you want this window to depend on a top level window from tkinter

  • params – if not None, overwrite values for some parameters

  • key_save – suffix added to the file used to store the parameters

  • do_not_open – if True, the function do not open the window but returns it

Returns:

None or windows if do_not_open is True

The window looks like:

Example:

FrameFunction.open_window (file_head)

New in version 1.0: Parameter do_not_open was added.

tkinterquickhelper.funcwin.frame_function.open_window_function(func, top_level_window=None, params=None, key_save='f', do_not_open=False)[source]

Opens a tkinter window to run a function. It adds entries for the parameters, it displays the help associated to this function, and it allows use to run the function in a window frame. Logs are also displayed. It also memorizes the latest values used (stored in <user>/TEMP folder).

Parameters:
  • func – function (function object)

  • top_level_window – if you want this window to depend on a top level window from tkinter

  • params – if not None, overwrite values for some parameters

  • key_save – suffix added to the file used to store the parameters

  • do_not_open – if True, the function do not open the window but returns it

Returns:

None or windows if do_not_open is True

The window looks like:

../../_images/open_window_function.png

Open a tkinter windows to run a function::

open_window_function (test_regular_expression)

The functions opens a window which looks like the following one:

../../_images/open_function.png

The parameters key_save can be ignored but if you use this function with different parameters, they should all appear after a couple of runs. That is because the function uses key_save ot unique the file uses to store the values for the parameters used in previous execution.

New in version 1.0: Parameter do_not_open was added.
