How to connect a variable to the Tkinter Entry widget?
Tkinter Entry widget is an Input widget that supports and accepts single-line user input. It accepts all types of characters in UTF-8 module. In order to get the input from the Entry widget, we have to define a variable (based on Data Types it accepts) that accepts only string characters. Then, by using get() method, we can print the given input from the Entry widget.
Example
# Import the Tkinter Library
from tkinter import *
# Create an instance of Tkinter Frame
win = Tk()
# Set the geometry of window
win.geometry("700x250")
# Define a String Variable
var = StringVar()
# Define a function to print the Entry widget Input
def printinput(*args):
print(var.get())
# Create an Entry widget
entry = Entry(win, width=35, textvariable=var)
entry.pack()
# Trace the Input from Entry widget
var.trace("w", printinput)
win.mainloop()Output
Running the above code will display a window with an Entry widget.
When we write something in the Entry widget, it will just print out all the characters from the Entry widget on the console.
