ClockIn/Out tkinter problem - Maryan - Oct-09-2020 I will appreciate any help.

When I press the "Clock In" button I get an error. But this cannot be the problem you are having because it has such an obvious cause. You never specify a value for self.filename, so of course you will get an attribute error when you try to get something that is not an attribute of self.So I commented out where the code writes the file with no name an instead had the code do this. totalinput = [ data, ClockIn_time, ClockIn_date] print(totalinput) ## with open(self.filename, "a") as savedb: ## w = csv.writer(savedb) ## w.writerow(totalinput)I did the same for clock_out(). Now when I press the Clock In and Clock Out buttons I get this. I entered 'Jack' as the employee name. Is this what you want written to the unnamed file? Looks about right to me.To fix your problem you need to somewhere in you code do this: self.filename = 'some string'If the particular problem you are having is something else, you need to provide more information. RE: ClockIn/Out tkinter problem - joe_momma - Oct-12-2020 Hey, A couple of modifications- added the filename with the suffix .cvs, moved your entry and label into the make widgets method changed the timer update method to show the building of time. removed the lambda in the main. You have functions lambda is for lazy people that don't write functions( they have their place). import tkinter as tk import time import datetime from tkinter import Frame from tkinter import * import csv class StopWatch(Frame): def __init__(self, parent=None, **kw): Frame.__init__(self, parent, kw) self._start = 0.0 self._elapsedtime = 0.0 self._running = 0 self.timestr = StringVar() self.filename= 'work_clock.cvs' self.makeWidgets() def makeWidgets(self): """ Make the time label.

You may need a check to see if there's a name in the entry widget. Maybe set up the cvs with columns and titles to make easy to read. Clean up the data written to cvs so accounting doesn't need a CS to decipher it. |
