PyMsgBox is simple, cross-platform, purely implemented in Python for message boxes as JavaScript has. It uses Python’s built-in Tkinter module for its GUI.

Installation

This module does not built-in Python. To install it type the below command in the terminal.

pip install PyMsgBox

There are four functions in PyMsgBox, which follow JavaScript’s message box naming conventions:

  • alert()
  • prompt()
  • confirm()
  • Timeout()
  • password()

alert()

This method shows a message box with text and a single button. It returns the text of the button.

Syntax:

alert(text='', title='', button='OK')

Python3




import pymsgbox as a
 
 
b = a.alert("This is alreat", 'Title')
 
# OK whatever you type, it will return OK
print(b)


 

 

Output:

 

confirm()

 

This method displays a message box with OK and Cancel buttons. Number and text of buttons can be customized. Returns the text of the button clicked on.

prompt()
