# GUI Components

- A responsive pair of reusable GUI components made with Tkinter, the Python

 binding to the Tk GUI toolkit

- Allows visual dataset interrogation

- Demonstrated with SQLite3

Environment Setup

- Python 3

- SQLite3

- Tkinter

### ScrollBox

- `ScrollBox` inherits from Tkinter\'s `ListBox` to conveniently combine a

 `ListBox` and a `ScrollBar` together into a single component.

### DataListBox

- `DataListBox` inherits from `ScrollBox` to make it capable of loading its own

 data and, optionally, linking to another `DataListBox` or Tkinter `Label`.

## Run the demo

From the root directory, Ubuntu, Linux and Mac users:

```shell

python3 project/db_connection.py

```

From the root directory, Windows users:

```shell

python --version  # ensure at least 3.x.x

python project/db_connection.py

```

#### SQLite / Python Concepts (personal use)

---

- **SQLite** is not client-server. The database server is not

 running on a remote machine that you connect to; instead everything is

 running on the same machine.

  - `_id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY`: some Java classes that

   Android uses to handle databases actually require an `_id` column (as

   opposed to `id`) so it's a good habit to get into to use that name for

    Python also.

- **Docstring**

  > A docstring is a string literal that occurs as the first

   statement in a module, function, class, or method definition. Such a docstring becomes the `__doc__` special attribute of that object.

  - Python has the built-in function `help()` that prints out the objects

   docstring to the console.

    - How is this output generated?

      1. Via the `__doc__` property.

      2. The strategic placement of the string literal directly below the

       object will automatically set the `__doc__` value.

  - **Type - Class Docstrings**

    - The docstrings are placed immediately following the class or class

     method indented by one level.

  - **Format - ReST (reStructuredText)**

    - 

      :param <param_type> <param_name>: <param_description>

      

      

      :param <param_name>: <param_description>

      :type <param_name>: <param_type>

      

    - 

      :return: <return_description>

      :rtype: <return_type>
