Tkinter root windows have a method called after
which can be used to schedule a function to be called after a given period of time. If that function itself calls after
you've set up an automatically recurring event.
Here is a working example:
# for python 3.x use 'tkinter' rather than 'Tkinter'
import Tkinter as tk
import time
class App():
def __init__(self):
self.root = tk.Tk()
self.label = tk.Label(text="")
self.label.pack()
self.update_clock()
self.root.mainloop()
def update_clock(self):
now = time.strftime("%H:%M:%S")
self.label.configure(text=now)
self.root.after(1000, self.update_clock)
app=App()
Bear in mind that after
doesn't guarantee the function will run exactly on time. It only schedules the job to be run after a given amount of time. It the app is busy there may be a delay before it is called since Tkinter is single-threaded. The delay is typically measured in microseconds.
