Appjar

radioAppjar.py - stream running

appJar GUI (very primitive, but WTH)

Notes from my first fumbling with appjar. I'm looking for something that's more intuitive than Tkinter or Glade. Appjar is promising, at least for those of us with web programming experience. The code is somehow akin to JavaScript or even CSS.

The images above is my first GUI made in appJar. The files are available on Github.

Appjar is not standard Python, so the first task is:

Install appjar

# pip install appjar

The First File

# import the library
from appJar import gui
# create a GUI variable called app
app = gui()

# add & configure widgets - widgets get a name, to help referencing them later
app.addLabel("title", "My first Apphar")
app.setLabelBg("title", "green")

# start the GUI
app.go()

Get a value from a widget

• .getEntry(title)
  This will return the contents of the specified entry box.
  NB. numericEntries always return a float.
• .getAllEntries()
  This will return the contents of all entries in the app, as a dictionary.
  NB. numericEntries always return a float.
