from tkinter import * from translate import Translator #Translator function def translate(): translator= Translator(from_lang=lan1.get(),to_lang=lan2.get()) translation = translator.translate(var.get()) var1.set(translation) #Tkinter root Window with title root = Tk() root.title("Translator") #Creating a Frame and Grid to hold the Content mainframe = Frame(root) mainframe.grid(column=0,row=0, sticky=(N,W,E,S) ) mainframe.columnconfigure(0, weight = 1) mainframe.rowconfigure(0, weight = 1) mainframe.pack(pady = 100, padx = 100) #variables for dropdown list lan1 = StringVar(root) lan2 = StringVar(root) #choices to show in dropdown menu choices = { 'English','Hindi','Gujarati','Spanish','German'} #default selection for dropdownlists lan1.set('English') lan2.set('Hindi') #creating dropdown and arranging in the grid lan1menu = OptionMenu( mainframe, lan1, *choices) Label(mainframe,text="Select a language").grid(row = 0, column = 1) lan1menu.grid(row = 1, column =1) lan2menu = OptionMenu( mainframe, lan2, *choices) Label(mainframe,text="Select a language").grid(row = 0, column = 2) lan2menu.grid(row = 1, column =2) #Text Box to take user input Label(mainframe, text = "Enter text").grid(row=2,column=0) var = StringVar() textbox = Entry(mainframe, textvariable=var).grid(row=2,column=1) #textbox to show output #label can also be used Label(mainframe, text = "Output").grid(row=2,column=2) var1 = StringVar() textbox = Entry(mainframe, textvariable=var1).grid(row=2,column=3) #creating a button to call Translator function b=Button(mainframe,text='Translate',command=translate).grid(row=3,column=1,columnspan=3) root.mainloop() |
