I'm working on a password manager using python in the PyCharm IDE. I am working with a database to store the passwords, which makes a .db file in the project folder. Then i wanted to clear that file as i wanted a clear db to work with. So i deleted the .db file from my folder, thinking it would create a new file and work fine. However, it did not.
I get the following error message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:/Users/Gebruiker/PycharmProjects/evault/main.py", line 246, in <module>
open_vault()
File "C:/Users/Gebruiker/PycharmProjects/evault/main.py", line 235, in open_vault
Label(vault, text=(array[i][1]), font=("Helvetica", 12)).place(x=400, y=400)
IndexError: list index out of range
I tried reverting changes with local history, but that wouldn't work for me either (or i just didn't understand)
[EDIT] Does it maybe have something to do with a new, so empty, database being created and then trying to display the contents of that database but failing as there are none? The deleted database file by me had contents, which did display. Might also be completely wrong, idk.
If it would help, this is my whole project code:

The error is being thrown by this:

while True:
cursor.execute('SELECT * FROM vault')

Label(vault, text=(array[i][1]), font=("Helvetica", 12)).place(x=400, y=400)
i += 1
cursor.execute('SELECT * FROM vault')
if len(cursor.fetchall()) <= i:
break
I confess I don't understand what this code is supposed to do. Why does it repeatedly execute the same query? You probably want something like this:
cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM vault")
START_HEIGHT=400
LINE_HEIGHT=50
for i, row in enumerate(cursor.fetchall()):
line_pos = START_HEIGHT + i * LINE_HEIGHT
Label(vault, text=row[1]).place(x=400,y=line_pos)
i.e. just iterate over the rows returned by the cursor directly.
If that is still throwing an error, you need to do some debugging: print what cursor.fetchall() actually returns. (Specifically, print list(cursor.fetchall()) in case it's an iterator.)

SQL code is not comparing variables given by TKinter from within a function

The program I'm currently working on should take two inputs given during a function and use them during another function to verify a user, this is done using Tkinter and SQL but the SQL either throws up an error or does not print or progress at all despite it being coded to do so, currently the result it should give is printing True when the password give and the result of the SQL match, I'm wondering if either the SQL is jankey or the way I've set up the variables is, either way I'm beating my head against trying to figure it out so any help would be appreciated, I'm fairly sure the problem is only with the submitlog fuction if that narrows down any issues.

Password = PassWord.get()
return Username and Password
previous attempts to rectify involve me trying to update the variables in both functions as well as running the login page outside of a function but all attempts resulted in either and an error or no activity at all
There's no need to use a for loop. Assuming usernames are unique, the query either returns a row or it doesn't. So you can call cursor1.fetchone() to get that row, then check the password.
You also need to get the username and password from the entry fields when you call submitlog(), not when you first create them.
def submitlog(): #a function that will compare and entered username and password with present passwords on the login database
cursor1 = connection1.cursor()
Username = UserName.get()
Password = PassWord.get()
cursor1.execute('SELECT Password FROM Login WHERE Username = ?', (Username,))
row = cursor1.fetchone()
if row and row[0] == Password:
print(True)
else:
print(Username)
print(Password)
print(row)
You'll need to add global UserName, PassWord to loginpage() so that the variables can be accessed from submitlog().
BTW, return Username and Password is not the way you return multiple values from a function. That should be return Username, Password. But I doubt the return value is used, so you don't need to return anything.
Maybe this helps
query = 'SELECT Password FROM Login WHERE Username = ?'
cursor.execute(query, (Username,))
results = cursor.fetchall()
for row in results:
if row[0] == Password:
print(True)
Thanks Barmar for the helpful comments.

How do i move to another section of my program?

I have built a login system using Tkinter and Sqlite3 for Python and I need to move on to another section of code once the login flow is complete. At the point in the 'test' function where I've added a comment, I need a separate python file (eg somefile.py) to run its code. How is best to do this? Your help is appreciated! Code below:
from tkinter import *
import Check_credentials as check
import New_user_screen as create
def test():
username = user.get()
password = pword.get()
global valid
valid = False
valid=check.check_user(username,password)
print(valid)
if valid == True:
login.destroy()
'launch main program' #Here is where i need the next section of the program to be run but ideally not as another function in this proram
print('Incorrect login getails\nPlease try again!')
def screen():
global login
login = Tk()
login.title('User Login')
login.geometry('300x180')
login.configure(background = 'white')
global user
global pword
message = Label(login,
text = 'Please enter username and password below',
bg='white')
message.pack()
label1 = Label(login,
text = 'Username',
bg='white')
label1.place(x=0,y=50)
user = Entry(login)
user.place(x=100,y=50)
label2 = Label(login,
text = 'Password',
bg='white')
label2.place(x=0,y=90)
pword = Entry(login)
pword.place(x=100,y=90)
confirm = Button(login,
text='Sign In',
fg='white',
bg='blue',
command = test)
confirm.place(x=50,y=130)
new = Button(login,
text='New User',
fg='white',
bg='blue',
command = create.screen)
new.place(x=120,y=130)
When the login is valid, it will go to the the function greeting in the class Main
from tkinter import *
import Check_credentials as check
import New_user_screen as create
class Login:
def test():
username = user.get()
password = pword.get()

mysql.connector.errors.InterfaceError: No result set to fetch from
You need to execute a SELECT query before you can fetch a result.
It looks as if you are checking whether the username entered exists in the database, so you probably want to query the database for that name:
def submitInfo():
if usernameEntry.get() == "" or emailEntry.get() == "" or passwordEntry.get() == "":
errorLabel.config(text="Error: Couldn't get value of all entries", fg="red")
# Query the database for a row with a matching username
stmt = """SELECT Username, Email, Password FROM pylogin WHERE Username = %s"""
cursor.execute(stmt, (usernameEntry.get(),))
# There should be at most one matching row, so we can use
# the cursor's fetchone method to retrieve it.
row = cursor.fetchone()
if row:
errorLabel.config(text="Username already exists in the database!")
else:
errorLabel.config(text="Success!", fg="green")
details = userInfo(usernameEntry.get(), emailEntry.get(), passwordEntry.get())
details.addInfoToDB()

Can anyone show me how to solve the python gui tkinter with same buttons but working separately in different MySQL tables

The 4 buttons (insert, delete, update, get) worked perfectly when I only have a student table in the MySQL database. after I try to add the faculty and college in Python GUI and run, The 4 buttons won't work.

How do I separate the 4 buttons for each table? Totally there are 12 buttons in my Python GUI (insert, delete, update, get)*3
What python command should I use? Thank you!
Ive tried to fix most of the issues I found with the code, but at first lets focus around your main problem. The ideal way would be to use would be a Combobox like:
from tkinter import ttk
from tkinter import messagebox
.....
choices = ['Choose a table','faculty','student'] #list of options to be showed
combo = ttk.Combobox(root,values=choices,state='readonly') #declaring a combobox
combo.current(0) #setting the default value to first item in the list.
combo.pack()
buttoninsert = Button(root,text='Insert',command=insertdb)
buttoninsert.pack()
Note that here, you only need 1 button for each function.
Then define insertdb() as:
def insertdb():
if combo.get() == 'Choose a table':
messagebox.showerror('Choose!','Choose an option!')
elif combo.get() == 'faculty':
fid = e_fid.get()
fname = e_fname.get()
fsalary = e_fsalary.get()
if fid=="" or fsalary=="" or fname=="":
messagebox.showinfo("Insert status", "All fields are required")
else:
con = mysql.connect(host="localhost", user="root", password="", database="test0910")
cursor = con.cursor()
cursor.execute("insert into faculty values(%s,%s,%s)",(fid,fname,fsalary))
cursor.execute("commit")
e_fid.delete(0, 'end')
e_fname.delete(0, 'end')
e_fsalary.delete(0, 'end')
show()
messageBox.showinfo("Insert Status", "Inserted Successfully");
con.close()
elif combo.get() == 'student':
id = e_id.get()
name = e_name.get();
address = e_address.get();
if id=="" or name=="" or address=="":
messageBox.showinfo("Insert status", "All fields are required")
else:
con = mysql.connect(host="localhost", user="root", password="", database="test0910")
cursor = con.cursor()
cursor.execute("insert into student values(%s,%s,%s)",(id,name,address))
cursor.execute("commit");
e_id.delete(0, 'end')
e_name.delete(0, 'end')
e_address.delete(0, 'end')
show()
messageBox.showinfo("Insert Status", "Inserted Successfully");
con.close()
So I hope you got a basic idea of whats happening. If not, Its like the user should choose an option at first, and then click on the button, only then the rest of the operation take place. Make necessary changes to the code, so that it fits to your needs.
Similarly, go on defining 3 other buttons and 3 functions, for your purpose.
What all have I changed?
You used concatenation for inserting data to the database and hence it is not a safe way and is exposed to sql injections. So i changed those to parametric substituions. Where you use %s as a placeholder. Take a look here for better understanding of these
I noticed that you named functions as insert(),get() and all. Naming as such is not accurate as some tkinter widgets has insert() and delete() methods, so it might cause a confusion to python later on.
Avoid naming variables as list, id as these are inbuilt functions and it will cause a confusion later on, again.
Ive imported messagebox, while i noticed you used Messagebox. Im not sure if tkinter.Messagebox exists and it might throw an error, if not, its fine to use.
You can add more mysql table names to the list choices and it will appear as options on the Combobox. Check out more on Combobox
Why did I say from tkinter import ttk? It is because Combobox is a ttk widget rather than a direct tkinter widget, which means it has a theme applied to it(looks modern).
I tried to explain this as simple as possible, hopefully you get a perfect idea on how to proceed. Do let me know if any errors, or doubts.
Cheers

How to take information that takes entered into a entry box and save(dump) it in a text file(json)

I created a program which should dump the username and password in json file
But i am having problem in solving it
plz help
def createAccount():
A = tk.StringVar()
B = tk.StringVar()
root1 = Tk()
root1.resizable(0, 0)
root1.title('Signup')
instruction = Label(root1, text='Please Enter new Credentials')
instruction.grid(row=0, column=0, sticky=E)
nameL = Label(root1, text='New Username: ')
pwordL = Label(root1, text='New Password: ')
nameL.grid(row=1, column=0, sticky=W)
pwordL.grid(row=2, column=0, sticky=W)
nameE = Entry(root1, textvariable=A)
pwordE = Entry(root1, textvariable=B )
nameE.grid(row=1, column=1)
pwordE.grid(row=2, column=1)
signupButton = Button(root1, text='Signup')
signupButton.grid(columnspan=2, sticky=W)
root1.mainloop()
username = A
password = B
with open('user_accounts.json', 'r+') as user_accounts:
users = json.load(user_accounts)
if username in users.keys():
print('error')
else:
users[username] = [password, "PLAYER"]
user_accounts.seek(0)
json.dump(users, user_accounts)
user_accounts.truncate()
print("success")
I tried to convert username and password into string by using tk.StringVar()
But a error is displayed
Plz provide any appropriate solution
tkinter labels don't use normal Python variables types. Instead, they use tcl types, such as StringVar. to get the values of such variables, you can call their .get() method, which returns a native Python value. Now you can convert, change and use it as you like :)
