Add/Edit Student

Add Student

Above UI we are going to create by Tkinter for adding Student in our Library management system desktop application. For that first we create a window and configure its title, size and color. Here we are creating a window at Top Level so we can add this window at the top of any other window.

    
    root = tk.Toplevel() #Create window at top level
    root.title("Add/Edit Students") #Give title to window
    root.configure(bg="#585858") #Set Background Color 
    root.resizable(width=0, height=0)
    win_width = 1280
    print(1280 * 56.25 / 100)
    win_height = int(1280 * 56.25 / 100)
    root.geometry(str(win_width) + "x" + str(win_height))
    Util.center(root)

    # Get screen size
    screen_width = root.winfo_screenwidth()
    screen_height = root.winfo_screenheight()
    Util.set_font_size(screen_width, screen_height, win_width, win_height)

    self.width = win_width * 96 / 100
    self.height = win_height * 94 / 100
    

After creation of window, we will add a canvas background.

    
    bg_canvas = RoundBackgroundFrame(root, self.width, self.height, padding, cornerradius, self.color, "#585858") 
    bg_canvas.place(width=self.width, height=self.height, x=win_width / 2 - self.width / 2,y=win_height / 2 - self.height / 2)

    class RoundBackgroundFrame(tk.Canvas):

        def __init__(self, parent, width, height, padding, cornerradius, color, bg):
            tk.Canvas.__init__(self, parent, borderwidth=0, relief="flat", highlightthickness=0, bg=bg)

            original = Image.open("images/corner.png") 
            resized = original.resize((int(40), int(40)), Image.ANTIALIAS) 
            self.image_r_t = ImageTk.PhotoImage(resized)

            original = original.rotate(90, expand=0)
            resized = original.resize((int(40), int(40)), Image.ANTIALIAS)
            self.image_l_t = ImageTk.PhotoImage(resized)

            original = original.rotate(90, expand=0)
            resized = original.resize((int(40), int(40)), Image.ANTIALIAS)
            self.image_l_b = ImageTk.PhotoImage(resized)

            original = original.rotate(90, expand=0)
            resized = original.resize((int(40), int(40)), Image.ANTIALIAS)
            self.image_r_b = ImageTk.PhotoImage(resized)

            self.shape(width, height, padding, cornerradius, color)
            (x0, y0, x1, y1) = self.bbox("all")
            width = (x1 - x0)
            height = (y1 - y0)
            self.configure(width=width, height=height)

        def shape(self, width, height, padding, cornerradius, color):
            self.create_polygon((padding, height - cornerradius - padding, padding, cornerradius + padding,
                        padding + cornerradius, padding, width - padding - cornerradius, padding,
                        width - padding, cornerradius + padding, width - padding,
                        height - cornerradius - padding, width - padding - cornerradius, height - padding,
                        padding + cornerradius, height - padding), fill=color, outline=color)

            self.create_image(width - self.image_r_t.width(), 0, image=self.image_r_t, anchor=NW)
            self.create_image(0, 0, image=self.image_l_t, anchor=NW)
            self.create_image(0, height - self.image_l_b.width(), image=self.image_l_b, anchor=NW)
            self.create_image(width - self.image_r_b.width(), height - self.image_r_b.width(), image=self.image_r_b,anchor=NW)

    

Once your window is created with custom background, we will create a frame with some reduced dimensions.

    
    self.width = self.width * 98 / 100
    self.height = self.height * 96 / 100
    self.base_frame = Frame(root, width=self.width, height=self.height, bg=self.color)
    bg_canvas.create_window(self.width / 100, self.height * 2 / 100, anchor=NW, window=self.base_frame)


    # Add Heading Name
    add_heading_label(self.base_frame, self.color, AppConstant.FONT_SIZE, self.height, self.width)

    def add_heading_label(base_frame, color, font_size, height, width):
    label_heading = Label(base_frame, text="Add/Edit Students", anchor=CENTER, bg=color,
                          font=("Lucida Grande", font_size + 6))
    label_heading.place(width=width * 90 / 100, height=height * 7 / 100, x=width * 5 / 100, y=height * 0.5 / 100)

    # Add line
    add_line_border(self.base_frame, self.color, self.height, self.width)

    def add_line_border(base_frame, color, height, width):
    line_canvas = Canvas(base_frame, bg=color, borderwidth=0, relief="flat", highlightthickness=0)
    line_canvas.place(width=width - 4, height=5, x=2, y=height * 10 / 100)
    line_canvas.create_line(0, 0, width, 0, fill="#787878")


    button_font = add_action_frame(self.base_frame, self.color, self.height, self.width)

    def add_action_frame(base_frame, color, height, width):
        afw = width * 0.35
        afh = height * 0.87
        button_font = ("Lucida Grande", AppConstant.FONT_SIZE - 6)
        label_frame_action = LabelFrame(base_frame, text="Actions", font=button_font, pady=afw * 2 / 100,
                                        padx=afw * 2 / 100, bg=color)
        label_frame_action.place(width=afw, height=afh, x=0, y=height * 0.12)
        return button_font

    add_search_frame(self.base_frame, button_font, self.color, self.height, self.width)

    (base_frame, button_font, color, height, width):
    sfw = width * 0.638
    sfh = height * 0.87
    label_frame_search = LabelFrame(base_frame, text="Search", font=button_font, pady=sfw * 2 / 100,
                                    padx=sfw * 2 / 100, bg=color)
    label_frame_search.place(width=sfw, height=sfh, x=width * 0.36, y=height * 0.12)

        
    

So we are done with all frame and background UI. Now we will add all the entry box and submit button in action frame to add student.

    
    # Add Student UI

    self.std_name = CustomEntrySimple(self.base_frame, 300, 60, ("Lucida Grande", AppConstant.FONT_SIZE - 6),self.color,"Student Name")
    self.std_name.place(x=50, y=150)

    self.std_contact = CustomEntrySimple(self.base_frame, 300, 60, ("Lucida Grande", AppConstant.FONT_SIZE - 6),self.color,"Contact No")
    self.std_contact.place(x=50, y=230)

    self.std_email = CustomEntrySimple(self.base_frame, 300, 60, ("Lucida Grande", AppConstant.FONT_SIZE - 6),self.color,"Email ID")
    self.std_email.place(x=50, y=310)
        
    

Here is our class CustomEntrySimple:

    
    class CustomEntrySimple(tk.Canvas):

        def __init__(self, parent, width, height, font, color, text):
            tk.Canvas.__init__(self, parent, borderwidth=0, relief="flat", highlightthickness=0, bg=color)

            self.width = width
            self.height = height
            self.color = color

            self.create_text(6, 5, anchor=W, font=font, text=text, fill="#000000")
            self.create_line(5, height - 8, width - 5, height - 8, fill="#808080")

            frame = Frame(parent,width=width * 95 / 100, height=height * 50 / 100)
            self.entry = Entry(frame, bg=color, bd=0, highlightthickness=0, font=font)

            self.entry.place(relwidth=1, relheight=1, x=0, y=0)

            self.create_window(6, height / 2 - (height * 50 / 100) / 2, anchor=NW, window=frame)
            self.update()

            (x0, y0, x1, y1) = self.bbox("all")
            width = (x1 - x0)
            height = (y1 - y0)
            self.configure(width=width, height=height)
        

Create a "Submit" button and show it.

    
    def show_add_student_button(self):
        self.add_button = RoundedButton(self.base_frame, 250, 130 / 2.56, self.color, "images/button3.png",
                                        "ADD STUDENT",
                                        font=("Lucida Grande", AppConstant.FONT_SIZE - 2),
                                        command=self.add_student_click)

        self.add_button.place(x=75, y=self.height * 0.70)
    

Now Create a Search UI for already added student in database. First we create a entry box to search Students with Student Id and Student Name.

    
    self.ce_student_var = CustomEntry(self.base_frame, 300, 55, 10, 2, self.color, "Search Student",
                                          "images/ic_search.png")
    self.ce_student_var.place(x=self.width / 2 - 150, y=self.height * 0.20)
    self.ce_student_var.entry.bind('', self.search_student)
                        

Here's the logic to search data in table

    
    def search_student(self, *arg):
        if self.ce_student_var.entry.get() != "":
            self.tree.delete(*self.tree.get_children())
            conn = Util.connect_db()
            cursor = conn.cursor()
            cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM `student` WHERE `name` LIKE ? OR `student_id` LIKE ?",
                           ('%' + str(self.ce_student_var.entry.get()) + '%',
                            '%' + str(self.ce_student_var.entry.get()) + '%'))
            fetch = cursor.fetchall()

            count = 0
            for data in fetch:
                if count % 2 == 0:
                    self.tree.insert('', 'end', values=data, tags=('even',))
                else:
                    self.tree.insert('', 'end', values=data, tags=('odd',))
                count = count + 1

            # for data in fetch:
            # self.tree.insert('', 'end', values=data)
            cursor.close()
            conn.close()
        else:
            self.reset_book()

    def reset_book(self):
        self.tree.delete(*self.tree.get_children())
        self.update_table_data()                            

We have created a Database named "library.db", lets connect that database and put that code in seperate class "Util" because we are going to use it multiple time in our project.

    
    class Util:

        @staticmethod
        def connect_db():
            db = None
            try:
                db = sql.connect("library.db")
                return db
            except sql.Error as error:
                print("Failed to insert data into sqlite table", error)
                

Fetch data from database and show it in table form with the use of "Treeview" of Tkinter.

    
        db = Util.connect_db()
        cursor = db.cursor()

        cursor.execute('SELECT * FROM student')
        self.sql_output = cursor.fetchall()

        style = ttk.Style()
        #        style.element_create("Custom.Treeheading.border", "from", "default")
        style.layout("Custom.Treeview.Heading", [
            ("Custom.Treeheading.cell", {'sticky': 'nswe'}),
            ("Custom.Treeheading.border", {'sticky': 'nswe', 'children': [
                ("Custom.Treeheading.padding", {'sticky': 'nswe', 'children': [
                    ("Custom.Treeheading.image", {'side': 'right', 'sticky': ''}),
                    ("Custom.Treeheading.text", {'sticky': 'we'})
                ]})
            ]}),
        ])
        #   style.configure("Custom.Treeview.Heading", background="blue", foreground="red", relief="flat")
        style.map("Custom.Treeview.Heading", relief=[('active', 'groove'), ('pressed', 'sunken')])
        style.configure("Custom.Treeview", highlightthickness=0, bd=0, font=('Calibri', 11), rowheight=30)

        self.table_heading()

        self.tree = ttk.Treeview(self.base_frame, height=13, show='tree', style="Custom.Treeview")
        self.tree.tag_configure('odd', background='#DFEBF6', foreground="#000000", )
        self.tree.tag_configure('even', background='#FFFFFF', foreground="#000000", )
        self.tree.place(x=self.width / 2 - 160, y=230)
        self.tree["columns"] = "1", "2", "3", "4"
        self.tree.column("#1", width=128)
        self.tree.column("#0", width=0)

        count = 0
        for data in self.sql_output:
            if count % 2 == 0:
                self.tree.insert('', 'end', values=data, tags=('even',))
            else:
                self.tree.insert('', 'end', values=data, tags=('odd',))
            count = count + 1

        vsb = ttk.Scrollbar(self.base_frame, orient="vertical", command=self.tree.yview)
        vsb.place(x=self.width - 26, y=230, height=392)

        self.tree.configure(yscrollcommand=vsb.set)

        self.tree.column("#1", anchor=tk.CENTER)
        self.tree.column("#2", anchor=tk.CENTER)
        self.tree.column("#3", anchor=tk.CENTER)
        self.tree.column("#4", anchor=tk.CENTER)
        self.tree.heading("#1", text="Student Id", anchor=tk.CENTER)
        self.tree.heading("#2", text="Name")
        self.tree.heading("#3", text="Contact No")
        self.tree.heading("#4", text="Email Id")

        self.tree.bind('<>', self.on_tree_click)

        root.attributes('-alpha', 0.0)
        root.attributes('-alpha', 1.0)

        

We have created our own heading for table, lets configure it.

    
    def table_heading(self):

        heading_y = 203
        bg_color = "#2929ff"
        text_color = "#ffffff"

        canvas = Canvas(self.base_frame, width=729, height=30)
        canvas.create_rectangle(0, 0, 790, 30, fill=bg_color)
        canvas.place(x=self.width / 2 - 161, y=heading_y - 3)

        student_id_label = Label(self.base_frame, text="Student Id",
                         font=('Calibri', AppConstant.FONT_SIZE - 3, 'bold'), background=bg_color,
                         foreground=text_color)
        student_id_label.place(x=self.width / 2 - 135, y=heading_y, width=120)
        student_id_label.configure(anchor="center")

        student_name_label = Label(self.base_frame, text="Name",
                           font=('Calibri', AppConstant.FONT_SIZE - 3, 'bold'), background=bg_color,
                           foreground=text_color)
        student_name_label.place(x=self.width / 2 + 28, y=heading_y, width=120)
        student_name_label.configure(anchor="center")

        student_contact_label = Label(self.base_frame, text="Contact No",
                              font=('Calibri', AppConstant.FONT_SIZE - 3, 'bold'), background=bg_color,
                              foreground=text_color)
        student_contact_label.place(x=self.width / 2 + 227, y=heading_y, width=120)
        student_contact_label.configure(anchor="center")

        student_email_label = Label(self.base_frame, text="Email Id",
                            font=('Calibri', AppConstant.FONT_SIZE - 3, 'bold'), background=bg_color,
                            foreground=text_color)
        student_email_label.place(x=self.width / 2 + 415, y=heading_y, width=120)
        student_email_label.configure(anchor="center")
        

UI part is completed, lets move to funtionality. First we need to add click on "Add Student" button.

    
    def add_student_click(self):

        var = ""
        student_email = ""
        student_name = ""
        student_contact = ""
        is_name_entered = False
        is_contact_number_entered = False
        is_email_id_entered = False

        if self.std_email.entry.get() == "" or self.std_email.entry.get() == " ":
            var += "Email Should not be empty, "
        else:
            student_email = self.std_email.entry.get()
            is_email_id_entered = True

        if self.std_name.entry.get() == "" or self.std_name.entry.get() == " ":
            var += "Name Should not be empty, "
        else:
            student_name = self.std_name.entry.get()
            is_name_entered = True

        if self.std_contact.entry.get() == "" or self.std_contact.entry.get() == " ":
            var += "Contact Should not be empty, "
        else:
            student_contact = self.std_contact.entry.get()
            is_contact_number_entered = True

        print(student_email, student_contact, student_name)

        if is_name_entered and is_email_id_entered and is_contact_number_entered:
            conn = Util.connect_db()
            cursor = conn.cursor()

            key = "STUDENT_LAST_COUNT"

            cursor.execute('SELECT value FROM system_setting WHERE key IS ?', (key,))
            rows = cursor.fetchone()
            print(rows[0])

            id_count = Util.convert_string_to_int(rows[0]) + 1

            student_id = get_student_id(id_count) + str(id_count)

            cursor.execute('INSERT INTO student(student_id, name, contact_no, email_id) VALUES(?,?,?,?)',
                           (student_id, student_name, student_contact, student_email))

            conn.commit()

            messagebox.showinfo("Success", "Student has been added successfully")
            self.std_email.entry.delete(0, 'end')
            self.std_contact.entry.delete(0, 'end')
            self.std_name.entry.delete(0, 'end')

            self.std_name.entry.focus()

            cursor.execute("UPDATE system_setting SET value = ? WHERE key = ?",
                           (id_count, key,))
            conn.commit()

            cursor.execute('SELECT * FROM student')
            self.sql_output = cursor.fetchall()
            self.tree.delete(*self.tree.get_children())
            for data in self.sql_output:
                self.tree.insert('', 'end', values=data)

        else:
            print(var)
            messagebox.showerror("showerror", var)


            

When we click on "Add Student", data will be added to database, after that we need to update the data on UI.

        count = 0

To edit and delete student on click on table row, we need to show Edit And Delete Button.

    
    def on_tree_click(self, *args):
        self.show_edit_button()
        self.show_delete_button()

        def show_edit_button(self, *args):
        self.edit_button = RoundedButton(self.base_frame, 110, 130 / 3.75, self.color, "images/button3.png",
                                         "EDIT",
                                         font=("Lucida Grande", AppConstant.FONT_SIZE - 4),
                                         command=lambda: self.edit_student(self.height, self.color))
        self.edit_button.place(x=self.width / 2 + 240, y=self.height * 0.20)

        def show_delete_button(self, *args):
        self.delete_button = RoundedButton(self.base_frame, 110, 130 / 3.75, self.color, "images/button3.png",
                                           "DELETE",
                                           font=("Lucida Grande", AppConstant.FONT_SIZE - 4),
                                           command=self.delete_student)
        self.delete_button.place(x=self.width / 2 + 420, y=self.height * 0.20)

    
    
    def edit_student(self, height, color):

        cur_item = self.tree.focus()

        self.std_name.entry.delete(0, END)
        self.std_contact.entry.delete(0, END)
        self.std_email.entry.delete(0, END)

        self.std_name.entry.insert(0, self.tree.item(cur_item)["values"][1])

        self.std_email.entry.insert(0, self.tree.item(cur_item)["values"][3])

        self.add_button.place_forget()

        student_id = self.tree.item(cur_item)["values"][0]

        self.hide_edit_button()

        self.update_button = RoundedButton(self.base_frame, 170, 130 / 2.56, color, "images/button3.png", "UPDATE",
                                   font=("Lucida Grande", AppConstant.FONT_SIZE - 2),
                                   command=lambda: self.update_student_click(student_id))
        self.update_button.place(x=25, y=height * 0.70)

        self.cancel_button = RoundedButton(self.base_frame, 170, 130 / 2.56, color, "images/button3.png", "CANCEL",
                                   font=("Lucida Grande", AppConstant.FONT_SIZE - 2),
                                   command=self.cancel_button_click)
        self.cancel_button.place(x=220, y=height * 0.70)
    

Implement Update And Cancel Button functionality

    
    def update_student_click(self, student_id):
        var = ""
        student_email = ""
        student_name = ""
        student_contact = ""
        is_name_entered = False
        is_contact_number_entered = False
        is_email_id_entered = False

        if self.std_email.entry.get() == "" or self.std_email.entry.get() == " ":
            var += "Email Should not be empty, "
        else:
            student_email = self.std_email.entry.get()
            is_email_id_entered = True

        if self.std_name.entry.get() == "" or self.std_name.entry.get() == " ":

        else:

            is_name_entered = True

        if self.std_contact.entry.get() == "" or self.std_contact.entry.get() == " ":
            var += "Contact Should not be empty, "
        else:
            student_contact = self.std_contact.entry.get()
            is_contact_number_entered = True

        print(student_email, student_contact, student_name)

        if is_name_entered and is_email_id_entered and is_contact_number_entered:
            conn = Util.connect_db()
            cursor = conn.cursor()
            cursor.execute("UPDATE student SET name = ?, contact_no = ?, email_id = ?  WHERE student_id = ?",
                           (student_name, student_contact, student_email, student_id,))
            conn.commit()

            self.std_email.entry.delete(0, 'end')
            self.std_contact.entry.delete(0, 'end')
            self.std_name.entry.delete(0, 'end')

            messagebox.showinfo("Success", "Student detail has been updated successfully")

            self.tree.delete(*self.tree.get_children())
            self.update_table_data()

            self.add_button = RoundedButton(self.base_frame, 250, 130 / 2.56, self.color, "images/button3.png",
                                            "ADD STUDENT",
                                            font=("Lucida Grande", AppConstant.FONT_SIZE - 2),
                                            command=self.add_student_click)
            self.add_button.place(x=75, y=self.height * 0.70)

            self.hide_edit_button()
            self.cancel_button.place_forget()
            self.update_button.place_forget()

    def cancel_button_click(self):

        self.std_email.entry.delete(0, 'end')
        self.std_contact.entry.delete(0, 'end')
        self.std_name.entry.delete(0, 'end')

        self.show_add_student_button()

        # self.hide_edit_button()
        self.show_edit_button()
        self.cancel_button.place_forget()
        self.update_button.place_forget()
        
    

At last we will manage closing of window

    
    def on_closing():
                        
        root.destroy()
        args[0].deiconify()
                       
    root.protocol("WM_DELETE_WINDOW", on_closing)
