[Tkinter] Two text files in Text widget (python 3)

[atlass218]

Hi;
I'm trying to display the contents of 02 text files in a Tkinter (Text) widget, but I didn'tt arrived.
File contents (loc1.txt):

21/06/18 -0.7
22/06/18 -0.5
06/07/18 -0.7
13/07/18 -0.6
20/07/18 -0.3
27/07/18 -0.5
10/08/18 -1.2
17/08/18 -0.5
24/08/18 -0.3
21/09/18 -0.2
28/09/18 -0.4
17/10/18 -0.1

Content of the second text file (loc2.txt):

21/06/18 -0.7
22/06/18 -0.5
06/07/18 -0.8
13/07/18 -0.7
20/07/18 -0.3
27/07/18 -0.7
10/08/18 -1.0
17/08/18 -0.5
24/08/18 -0.3
21/09/18 -0.2
28/09/18 -0.5
17/10/18 -0.3

Here is the code I made to display the contents of a text file:

sous_generalites=Frame(generalites,bg='powder blue')
sous_generalites.pack(side=BOTTOM)
 
s_generalites= Scrollbar(sous_generalites)
T_generalites= Text(sous_generalites,bg='powder blue',width=750,height=550,font=('arial',14,'bold'),padx=20)
 
s_generalites.pack(side=RIGHT, fill=Y)
T_generalites.pack(side=LEFT, fill=Y)
s_generalites.config(command=T_generalites.yview)
T_generalites.config(yscrollcommand=s_generalites.set)
 
filename =('archives/loc1.txt')
fichier = open(filename, "r")
content_generalites= fichier.read()
fichier.close()
 
T_generalites.insert(END, content_generalites)

Each of the two files has two columns (the first column is the same for both files, it represents the date)
here is the image of the desired concept:

thanks or help

this code:

filename =('archives/loc1.txt')
fichier = open(filename, "r")
content_generalites= fichier.read()
fichier.close()
  
T_generalites.insert(END, content_generalites)

can be simplified to:

with open(filename, "r") as fichier:
    for line in fichire:
        T_generalites.insert(END, line.strip())

I don't see a second file, but just add a similar phrase for the second file

also, if you wish to intermingle data from both files, you can use:

with open(file1, 'r') as f1, open(file2, 'r') as f2:
    ...

hi;
you don't see the second files because i don't knew how to do for adding tne content of two files in the same widget 'TEXT'

I try this code but it doesn't work like I want

with open('data_monitor1_axe_loc35L.txt', "r") as fichier1,open('data_monitor2_axe_loc35L.txt', "r") as fichier2:
	for line in fichier1:
		T1_paned_f7_bottom_35L_left.insert(END, line.strip())

	for line in fichier2:
		T1_paned_f7_bottom_35L_left.insert(END, line.strip())

[Larz60+]

but it doesn't work like I want

and that is?

[atlass218]

I think that the problem I encountered was not well understood. for that I explain again to have a good idea about the problem : there are two text files that I want to integrate into a widgte (TEXT)
the content of two files (loc2.txt,loc2.txt)

loc1.txt:

21/06/18 -0.7
22/06/18 -0.5
06/07/18 -0.7
13/07/18 -0.6
20/07/18 -0.3
27/07/18 -0.5
10/08/18 -1.2
17/08/18 -0.5
24/08/18 -0.3
21/09/18 -0.2
28/09/18 -0.4
17/10/18 -0.1

loc2.txt:

21/06/18 -0.7
22/06/18 -0.5
06/07/18 -0.8
13/07/18 -0.7
20/07/18 -0.3
27/07/18 -0.7
10/08/18 -1.0
17/08/18 -0.5
24/08/18 -0.3
21/09/18 -0.2
28/09/18 -0.5
17/10/18 -0.3

the first column of two txt files(loc1.txt and loc2.txt)is the same (It describes date)

I want to display the contents of these two files in a widget (TEXT) in this way:

* the first column displayed in the widget (TEXT) would be the column of the date (which is already the first common column for the two text files loc1.txt, and loc2.txt)

* the second column displayed in the widget TEXT would be the second column of the text file (loc1.txt)

* the third column displayed in the widget TEXT would be the second column of the text file (loc2.txt)

here is the image of the desired concept:



currently, I can only display the contents of a single text file in the widget by this code :

from tkinter import *
import tkinter.ttk as ttk
from tkinter.ttk import Notebook

container=Tk()

container.geometry('450x350')
generalites=Frame(container,bg='powder blue')
generalites.pack(side=BOTTOM)
  
s_generalites= Scrollbar(generalites)
T_generalites= Text(generalites,bg='powder blue',width=350,height=350)
  
s_generalites.pack(side=RIGHT, fill=Y)
T_generalites.pack(side=LEFT, fill=Y)
s_generalites.config(command=T_generalites.yview)
T_generalites.config(yscrollcommand=s_generalites.set)
  
filename =('loc1.txt')
fichier = open(filename, "r")
content_generalites= fichier.read()
fichier.close()
  
T_generalites.insert(END, content_generalites)

container.mainloop()

I hope that I have successfully explained the problem

import os

# make sure in code directory
os.chdir(os.path.dirname(__file__))

with open('loc1.txt') as loc1, open('loc2.txt') as loc2:
    head = ['Date', 'Value 1', 'Value2']
    print(f'{head[0]:15} {head[1]:10} {head[2]:10}')
    while True:
        line1 = loc1.readline()
        if len(line1) == 0:
            break
        line1 = line1.strip().split()
        line2 = loc2.readline()
        line2 = line2.strip().split()
        print(f'{line1[0]:15} {line1[1]:10} {line2[1]:10}')

results:

Output:
Date            Value 1    Value2
21/06/18        -0.7       -0.7
22/06/18        -0.5       -0.5
06/07/18        -0.7       -0.8
13/07/18        -0.6       -0.7
20/07/18        -0.3       -0.3
27/07/18        -0.5       -0.7
10/08/18        -1.2       -1.0
17/08/18        -0.5       -0.5
24/08/18        -0.3       -0.3
21/09/18        -0.2       -0.2
28/09/18        -0.4       -0.5
17/10/18        -0.1       -0.3

you can add the gui code to insert into your widget
This code uses f-string (python 3.6 and newer)

I try to put this code in widget tkinter but i have problem

there is my code :

import os
from tkinter import *
root=Tk()
root.geometry('450x350')

# make sure in code directory
os.chdir(os.path.dirname(__file__))
 
with open('archives/ILS_35L/loc35L/loc1.txt') as loc1, open('archives/ILS_35L/loc35L/loc2.txt') as loc2:
    head = ['Date', 'Monitor 1', 'Monitor 2']

    lb_date=Label(root,text=f'{head[0]:15}',bg='powder blue')
    lb_date.place(x=10,y=30)

    lb_monitor1=Label(root,text=f'{head[1]:10}',bg='powder blue')
    lb_monitor1.place(x=60,y=30)

    lb_monitor2=Label(root,text=f'{head[2]:10}',bg='powder blue')
    lb_monitor1.place(x=120,y=30)

    # lb=Label(root, text=f'{head[0]:15}{head[1]:10}{head[2]:10}')
    # lb.pack()
    generalites=Frame(root,bg='powder blue')
    generalites.pack(side=BOTTOM)

    s_generalites= Scrollbar(generalites)
    T_generalites= Text(generalites,bg='powder blue',width=350,height=350)
  
    s_generalites.pack(side=RIGHT, fill=Y)
    T_generalites.pack(side=LEFT, fill=Y)
    s_generalites.config(command=T_generalites.yview)
    T_generalites.config(yscrollcommand=s_generalites.set)
    while True:
        line1 = loc1.readline()
        if len(line1) == 0:
            break
        line1 = line1.strip().split()
        line2 = loc2.readline()
        line2 = line2.strip().split()		
        content_generalites=f'{line1[0]:15}{line1[1]:10}{line2[1]:10}'
        T_generalites.insert(END, content_generalites)
      
root.mainloop()

but i have problem

Is there an error? What problem are you having, and why do you want us to guess what that problem is?

[atlass218]

The code indicates by Larz60 + works perfectly in console, so I tried to modify it so that it gives me the same result with widget tkinter (TEXT with scrolling)
with my last code I have this picture :

I wish to correct my code to have in TEXT widget of tkinter (python 3) as this result :

thanks for help

[Larz60+]

Try:

content_generalites = f'{line1[0]:15} {line1[1]:10} {line2[1]:10}'.strip()

or better, remove that line altogether and replace next with:

T_generalites.insert(END, f'{line1[0]:15} {line1[1]:10} {line2[1]:10}'.strip())
