The wizard module makes it easy to write typical desktop GUI-style
|
||
|
|
"wizards," where a user is guided through a series of forms and enters
|
||
|
|
configuration data. By design, the wizard module tries to shield the
|
||
|
|
developer from all aspects of GUI development. This extends to keeping
|
||
|
|
the Tkinter names out of the global namespace.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A wizard encapsulates a set of interactions with a user. It contains one
|
||
|
|
or more sheets. A sheet can either have text for the user to read, or it
|
||
|
|
can have one or more data entry fields. These fields can be text entry,
|
||
|
|
file or directory selection, check-boxes or multiple-choice lists. When
|
||
|
|
the user indicates that they are finished, the wizard returns a dictionary
|
||
|
|
containing the data the user entered. Entries can also be validated by
|
||
|
|
calling out to application-specific code. Validation can be done when the
|
||
|
|
user tries to move to the next sheet, or at the end after all the data has
|
||
|
|
been entered. The wizard module includes several validators.
