python ttk_Python ttk.Progressbar

I am having trouble with getting the progressbar to start. I have scoured the internet for answers, and have tried multiple ways for hours, but have been rewarded with errors such as:

TypeError: unbound method start() must be called with Progressbar instance as first argument (got nothing instead)

TypeError: unbound method start() must be called with Progressbar instance as first argument (got NoneType instance instead)

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'stop'

I am fairly new to Python, so if anyone could point me in the right direction that would be very much appreciated.

Here is (essentially) my code:

from Tkinter import *

import ttk

def foo():

#make progressbar start here

do_stuff()

#make progressbar end here

root = Tk()

root.title("foo")

mainframe = ttk.Frame(root, padding="3 3 12 12")

mainframe.grid(column=0, row=0, sticky=(N, W, E, S))

mainframe.columnconfigure(0, weight=1)

mainframe.rowconfigure(0, weight=1)

prog = ttk.Progressbar(mainframe, mode='indeterminate').grid(column=1, row=100, sticky=W)

ttk.Button(mainframe, text="Check", command=foo).grid(column=1, row=100, sticky=E)

for child in mainframe.winfo_children():

child.grid_configure(padx=5, pady=5)

root.bind('', check)

root.mainloop()

解决方案

Your prog variable does not contain the progressbar because you call the grid method which does return None. That does explain the

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'stop'

change your code to

prog = ttk.Progressbar(mainframe, mode='indeterminate')

prog.grid(column=1, row=100, sticky=W)

after that you can start the Progressbar in foo via

prog.start()
