I have a script where I want it to popup a dialog to the user. Once the user enters text the window will close and the script can take the entered text an move on. I am having trouble getting the text, it is always empty. I based my code on this: Get value from Entry after root.destroy()
How can I get the text?
#2.7
from Tkinter import *
class GetUserInput(Frame):
def __init__(self, master=None):
Frame.__init__(self, master)
self.pathVar = StringVar()
self.path = Entry(master, bd =5)
self.path.bind('<Return>', self.callback)
self.path.pack(side = RIGHT)
L1 = Label(master, text="Enter value")
L1.pack( side = LEFT)
def callback(*args):
value = args[0].pathVar.get()
print value
args[0].master.destroy()
def close(self):
self.master.destroy()
if __name__ == '__main__':
root = Tk()
app = GetUserInput(master=root)
app.mainloop()
print(app.pathVar.get())
self.path = Entry(master, bd =5)
Try specifying the textvariable argument here. This will ensure that the StringVar will stay updated with the value of the Entry.
self.path = Entry(master, bd =5, textvariable=self.pathVar)
