To work with the date and time module, Python provides the 'datetime' package. Using 'datetime' package, we can display the date, manipulate the datetime object, and use it to write the additional functionality in an application.
To display the current date in a Tkinter window, we've to first import the datetime module in our environment. Once imported, you can create an instance of its object and display them using the label widget.
Example
Here is an example of how you can show the current date in a Tkinter window.
# Import the required libraries from tkinter import * import datetime as dt # Create an instance of tkinter frame or window win=Tk() # Set the size of the tkinter window win.geometry("700x350") # Create an instance of datetime module date=dt.datetime.now() # Format the date format_date=f"{date:%a, %b %d %Y}" # Display the date in a a label widget label=Label(win, text=format_date, font=("Calibri", 25)) label.pack() win.mainloop()
Output
Running the above code will display the current date in the window.
