Detailed Introduction to Python Module EasyGui

Detailed Introduction to Python Module EasyGui

Preface:

As I want to develop some simple interfaces with Python on Windows, I found the EasyGui library that is easy to use. Let's share a simple usage below.

Next, I will demonstrate how to use this module from simple to slightly complex. I hope it can be a little help for those who are just getting started with easygui :)-)

msgBox,ccbox,ynbox

# coding:utf-8
#  __author__ = 'Mark sinoberg'
#  __date__ = '"2016/5/25"
#  __Desc__ = A simple MessageBox-like window similar to Java
import easygui
title = easygui.msgbox(msg='Prompt Information',title='Title Part',ok_button="OK")
msg = easygui.msgbox('Hello Easy GUI')
print 'Return value: ' + msg
ccbox = easygui.ccbox("here is Continue | Cancel Box!")
print 'Return value: ' + str(ccbox)
ynbox = easygui.ynbox("Yes Or No Button Box!")
print 'Return value: ' + str(ynbox)

# # choices must have only two parameters, the one chosen will be returned1, otherwise return 0

# The default value is "c:",/fishc/test*.py" will display all Python files starting with 'test' in the C:\fishc folder.

filesavebox

# coding:utf-8

#  __Desc__ = This function provides a dialog box for the user to select the path (with the complete path) where the file needs to be saved. Selecting Cancel returns None
#        The default parameter should contain a filename (for example, the current file to be saved), of course, you can also set it to empty, or contain a wildcard file format mask.
#        filetypes refer to the above fileopenbox

exceptionbox

# coding:utf-8
#  __author__ = 'Mark sinoberg'
#  __date__ = '"2016/5/25"
#  __Desc__ = This is a very useful dialog box. When an application encounters an exception, it can provide a friendly interface prompt to the user
import easygui
try:
  int('Exception')
except:
  easygui.exceptionbox('int type data conversion error! Please check your data type!')
# A window will pop up, and the content information can be defined by yourself, as above. The following content is the error information traced.
# Traceback (most recent call last):
#  File "E:/Code/Python/MyTestSet/easygui_/exceptionbox.py", line 10, in <module>
#   int('Exception')
# ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: 'Exception'

Summary

After looking at these examples, you must be very confident in developing simple desktop applications with easygui. (^__^) Hahaha...

But, for more complex tasks, just mastering these basics is far from enough. So we need to explore other related Python modules. This way, in actual development, we can choose the most suitable module for development according to the difficulty of the task.
