A reusable tkinter/ttkbootstrap UI framework

Project description

Jabs Mimir

Jabs Mimir is a lightweight, extensible UI micro-framework built on top of tkinter and ttkbootstrap, designed for rapid internal tool development and structured form workflows.

It provides:

  • Reusable UI primitives with validation and tooltips
  • Support for block-based form components with dynamic variable binding
  • Integration with custom validation logic
  • Modular architecture suitable for internal tooling and small boilerplate projects

Installation

pip install jabs-mimir

Quick Start

from jabs_mimir import Mimir, DataBlockWrapper, UtilityModule
import tkinter as tk
import ttkbootstrap as tb

class App(tb.Window):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(title="Mimir Demo")
        self.ui = Mimir(self)
        self.ui.setValidatorResolver(lambda name: {"not_empty": lambda val: bool(val.strip())}.get(name))

        self.ui.switchView(self.mainView)

    def mainView(self, ui, *args):
        frame = tb.Frame(self)
        fields = [
            {"type": "heading", "label": "Basic Info"},
            {"label": "Name", "key": "name", "variable": tk.StringVar(), "validation": "not_empty"},
            {"label": "Age", "key": "age", "variable": tk.IntVar()}
        ]

        meta = UtilityModule.buildBlockMeta(fields)
        block = DataBlockWrapper(meta)

        ui.renderFields(frame, fields)
        ui.addNextButton(frame, row=len(fields)+1, command=lambda: print(UtilityModule.getBlockValues(block)))

        return frame

if __name__ == "__main__":
    app = App()
    app.mainloop()

Components

Mimir

Manages UI views, tooltips, validation, field rendering, and form logic.
