A simple Progressbar implementation in Python

by José Antonio Oliveira

A quick post just to share a small class to display a Progressbar on Canvas:

Usage example:

#buffer could be a copy of canvas
progress = ProgressBar(buffer)
i = 0
for i in range(100):
    progress.set_value(i)
    canvas.blit(buffer)
progress.close()
del progress

I made four screenshots of this progressbar running inside an application:
screenshot0052

screenshot0053
screenshot0054
screenshot0057

Here is the complete ProgressBar class:

from graphics import *
 
class ProgressBar(object):
    """ Implements a ProgressBar on Canvas
    """
    def __init__(self, other_canvas, start=0, end=100,
                 color=(0,0,77), fill=(255,255,200),
                 outline=(0,0,0)):
        #canvas assignments
        self.canvas_copy = Image.new(other_canvas.size)
        self.canvas_copy.blit(other_canvas)
        self.return_canvas = Image.new(self.canvas_copy.size)
        self.return_canvas.blit(other_canvas)
        self.canvas = other_canvas
        #External box size
        self.box_w = int(self.canvas_copy.size[0] * 0.8)
        self.box_h = 50 #height of window
        self.box_l = int(self.canvas_copy.size[0] - self.box_w) / 2
        self.box_t = self.canvas_copy.size[1] - self.box_h - 5
        #ProgressBar size
        self.progr_margin_h = 5 #horizontal margins (left and right)
        self.prog_w = self.box_w - 2 * self.progr_margin_h
        self.prog_h = 18 #height of progressbar
        self.prog_l = self.box_l + self.progr_margin_h
        self.prog_t = self.box_t + int((self.box_h - self.prog_h) / 2)
        #internal progressbar expects that external has 1px border
        self.internal_w_max = self.prog_w - 2
        self.internal_h = self.prog_h - 2
        self.internal_l = self.prog_l + 1
        self.internal_t = self.prog_t + 1
        self.internal_w = 0
        #colors & values
        self.start = start
        self.end = end
        self.value = start
        self.color = color
        self.outline = outline
        self.fill = fill
        #shows initial progressbar
        self.redraw()
 
    def close(self):
        #Closes the window and frees the image buffers memory
        self.canvas.blit(self.return_canvas)
        del self.canvas_copy
        del self.return_canvas
 
    def set_value(self, value):
        if value > self.end:
            value = self.end
        elif value < self.start:
            value = self.start
        self.value = value
        self.internal_w = int(((1.0 * self.value - self.start)/ \
                               (1.0 * self.end - self.start))   \
                              * self.internal_w_max)
        self.redraw()
 
    def redraw(self):
        """You don't need call redraw on application.
        Just use set_value to redraw the progressbar"""
        self.canvas_copy.blit(self.return_canvas)
        #external window
        self.canvas_copy.rectangle((self.box_l,
                                    self.box_t,
                                    self.box_l + self.box_w,
                                    self.box_t + self.box_h),
                                   outline=self.outline,
                                   fill=self.fill)
        #progressbar external border
        self.canvas_copy.rectangle((self.prog_l,
                                    self.prog_t,
                                    self.prog_l + self.prog_w,

The next post will be the implementation of this progressbar using Topwindow
