Tkinter Gui to read in csv file and generate buttons based on the entries in the first row
- by Thomas Jensen
I need to write a gui in Tkinter that can choose a csv file, read it in and generate a sequence of buttons based on the names in the first row of the csv file (later the data in the csv file should be used to run a number of simulations).
So far I have managed to write a Tkinter gui that will read the csv file, but I am stomped as to how I should proceed:
from Tkinter import *
import tkFileDialog
import csv
class Application(Frame):
def __init__(self, master = None):
Frame.__init__(self,master)
self.grid()
self.createWidgets()
def createWidgets(self):
top = self.winfo_toplevel()
self.menuBar = Menu(top)
top["menu"] = self.menuBar
self.subMenu = Menu(self.menuBar)
self.menuBar.add_cascade(label = "File", menu = self.subMenu)
self.subMenu.add_command( label = "Read Data",command = self.readCSV)
def readCSV(self):
self.filename = tkFileDialog.askopenfilename()
f = open(self.filename,"rb")
read = csv.reader(f, delimiter = ",")
app = Application()
app.master.title("test")
app.mainloop()
Any help is greatly appreciated!
