Basic Introduction To Tkinter

Tkinter

Introduction to Python GUI

- Python provides various options for developing graphical user interfaces (GUIs). Most important are listed below.  

Tkinter:- It is the easiest among all to get started with. It is Python’s standard GUI (Graphical User Interface) package. It is the most commonly used toolkit for GUI Programming in Python.  

JPython:- It is the Python platform for Java that is providing Python scripts seamless access o Java class Libraries for the local machine.  

wxPython:- It is open-source cross-platform GUI toolkit written in C++. It one of the alternatives to Tkinter, which is bundled with Python.

-There are many other interfaces available for GUI. But these are the most commonly used ones.

Python GUI Programming - Tkinter

- It is the standard GUI toolkit for Python.

- It was written by Fredrik Lundh.  

- Python when combined with Tkinter provides a fast and easy way to create GUI applications.  Tkinter provides a powerful object-oriented interface to the Tk GUI toolkit.  

- Creating a GUI application using Tkinter is an easy task.

Perform the following steps:- 

To create a tkinter:  

1).Importing the module – tkinter  

2).Create the main window (container) 

3).Add any number of widgets to the main window  

4).Apply the event Trigger on the widgets.

How To Install Tkinter :-

To see if you have Tkinter, launch python; then at the Python prompt, type: -

import Tkinter  

Or in Python 3: import tkinter

sudo apt-get install python-tk (for version 2)

sudo apt-get install python3-tk (for versoin 3)

There are two main methods used you the user need to remember while creating the Python application with GUI.

Tk(screenName=None,  baseName=None,  className=’Tk’,  useTk=1): 

To create a main window, tkinter offers a method ‘Tk(screenName=None,  baseName=None,  className=’Tk’,  useTk=1)’. To change the name of the window, you can change the className to the desired one.

The basic code used to create the main window of the application is:

    m=tkinter.Tk() where m is the name of the main window object

mainloop():-

- There is a method known by the name mainloop() is used when you are ready for the application to run. 

-  mainloop() is an infinite loop used to run the application, wait for an event to occur and process the event till the window is not closed.

    m.mainloop()

Example:
import tkinter 

m = tkinter.Tk()  

m.mainloop()
