Adding user entered data as Parent Node using Treeview insert of tkinter

Basics of Python Tkinter Displaying MySQL records in Treeview

Adding rows to Treeview

We can use insert() to add one parent of main node ( row ) to the Treeview. Here we have one student record table ( no database here ) and one record is already available. Below the Treeview, input boxes and options are available to add nodes to this Treeview using insert() method.

Declaring a Treeview

Here we have declared one Treeview and use the object trv for further management of the Treeview.

trv=ttk.Treeview(my_w,selectmode='browse')
trv.grid(row=1,column=1,columnspan=4,padx=20,pady=20)

adding one record

After adding header and columns ( check the code below ) one record is added with iid=1 ( unique id of the row )

i=1
trv.insert("",'end',iid=1,
		values=(i,'Alex','Four',78,'Male'))

Below this Treeview we will provide inputs using Label, Text, OptionMenu and Radio buttons to take one input row data and add to the row on Click of a Button.

b1 = tk.Button(my_w,  text='Add Record', width=10, 
               command=lambda: add_data())  
b1.grid(row=6,column=2)

The function add_data() will be executed once the Button b1 is clicked. Inside this function we will read the user entered data and then add the row to our Treeview. Here we are not validating any input data.

def add_data():
     
     my_name=t1.get("1.0",END) # read name
     my_class=options.get()    # read class
     my_mark=t3.get("1.0",END) # read mark
     my_gender=radio_v.get()   # read gender 
     global i
     i=i+1
     trv.insert("",'end',
                values=(i,my_name,my_class,my_mark,my_gender))
     t1.delete('1.0',END)  # reset the text entry box
     t3.delete('1.0',END)  # reset the text entry box
     my_str.set("Data added ")
     t1.focus()   
     l5.after(3000, lambda: my_str.set('') ) # remove the message

The full code with layout of the window is here.

Using Database

We can add rows to Treeview only after gettign confirmation of adding record to MySQL database. This we will add next.
