Helpers

Many widgets require access to a state via a reference, which can’t be done for integers, floats and strings in Python. That’s why such helper classes as Str, Bool, Int, Float, RGB and Date exist.

class pyegui.Str(value)

Str stores string value that can be referenced

Usage:

data = Str("")

def update_func():
    heading(f"Value of the data is {data.value}")
    if button_clicked("Add :)"):
        data.value += ":) "

class pyegui.Bool(value)

Bool stores a boolean value that can be referenced

Usage:

data = Bool(False)

def update_func():
    heading(f"Value of the data is {data.value}")
    # button will be shown only if the checkbox is checked
    if data.value and button_clicked("set to False"):
        # hiding the button
        data.value = False
    checkbox(data, "Check me")

class pyegui.Int(value)

Int stores integer value that can be referenced

Usage:

data = Int(69)

def update_func():
    heading(f"Value of the data is {data.value}")
    if button_clicked("Increment"):
        data.value += 1

class pyegui.Float(value)

Float stores float value that can be referenced

Usage:

data = Float(69.0)

def update_func():
    heading(f"Value of the data is {data.value}")
    if button_clicked("Increment"):
        # what can go wrong?
        data.value += 0.1
