Tkinter widget to display data over multiple columns.

Project description

multiframe_list.py

Compact raw python module that brings the MultiframeList class with it. It is a tkinter widget that can be used to display data split up over multiple columns. Able to read into the ttk styling database and apply certain style configurations to otherwise unstylable Listboxes and exists exclusively because I didn't know about ttk.Treeview and was too stubborn to drop existing code.

Installation

Get it by running pip install multiframe_list.

Example:

import tkinter as tk
from multiframe_list import MultiframeList

def format_price(raw):
    dollars, cents = divmod(raw, 100)
    return f"${dollars}.{cents:0>2}"

items = (
    ("Apple", 79, 42),
    ("Pear", 79, 58),
    ("Egg", 29, 24),
    ("HL3", 99999999903, 1),
)

root = tk.Tk()

item_display = MultiframeList(root, inicolumns = (
    {"name": "Items", "col_id": "col_items", "sort": False},
    {"name": "Price", "col_id": "col_prices", "sort": True,
     "formatter": format_price},
    {"name": "Stock", "col_id": "col_qty", "sort": False},
))
item_display.set_data({
    "col_items":  [t[0] for t in items],
    "col_prices": [t[1] for t in items],
    "col_qty":    [t[2] for t in items],
})
# Required for the price formatter.
# If not called, the column would display raw values.
item_display.format()
# item_display.format(("col_prices",)) # would have the same effect.

item_display.grid(sticky = "nesw")
root.mainloop()

Will result in this window:
