The main function tries to create a urllib connection, and if it fails/succeeds the label changes accordingly. However, I'm looking for ways to improve this code.
Some elements I'm already aware of:
- The use of
placereally isn't ideal, I'm aware - Importing Urllib twice, but if I didn't do it like this the except: wasnt working correctly
- Use of global
import urllib
import urllib.request as url
from tkinter import *
master = Tk()
master.geometry("280x36")
master.resizable(False, False)
master.config(bg="#4b4b4b")
master.overrideredirect(True)
master.wm_geometry("-0-40")
master.wm_attributes("-topmost", 1)
connectStatus = Label(bg="#e67e22", fg="#fff", width=29, height=1, text="Pending", font="Bahnscrift 10")
connectStatus.place(x=10,y=8)
closeButton = Button(width=2, bg="#706f6f", fg="#fff", borderwidth=0, text="x", command=master.destroy)
closeButton.place(x=253, y=8)
def displayCheck():
colorFlash = "#38f789" if callbackAttempt == 1 else "#ff6656"
connectStatus.config(bg=colorFlash)
master.after(10, runRefresh)
def runRefresh():
attemptConnect()
master.after(2000, displayCheck)
def attemptConnect():
global callbackAttempt
try:
callbackAttempt = 1
callback = url.urlopen("https://stackoverflow.com", timeout=1)
connectStatus.config(text="Connection Established", font="Bahnscrift 10", bg="#2ecc71")
callback.close()
except urllib.error.URLError:
connectStatus.config(text="No Connection", bg="#e74c3c", font="Bahnscrift 10")
callbackAttempt = 0
master.after(5, runRefresh)
master.mainloop()
This is my program, the main function trys to create a urllib connection, and if it fails/succeeds the label changes accordingly. However, I'm looking for ways to improve this code. If anyone has any ideas- I'd appreciate it.
Some elements I'm already aware of -
- The use of place really isn't ideal, I'm aware
- Importing Urllib twice, but if I didn't do it like this the except: wasnt working correctly
- Use of global
