Utilizing ask_user_for_confirmation

New

from ppms.user_interface import ask_user_for_confirmation, ButtonList

message_text = 'Should something be done?'
if ask_user_for_confirmation(message_text=message_text, button_enum=ButtonList.YES_NO)
    # Do something...

Old

from ppms import ppms
from ppms.constants import *

ppms.ui_message_box('Should something be done?', ole_id=OLE_QUESTION_MARK, button_list=['Yes', 'No'])
msg = ppms.msg_pop()
reply = msg.get_reply()

if reply == MSG_REPLY_YES:
    # Do something...

Utilizing ask_for_confirmation_via_dialog

New

from ppms.user_interface import ask_for_confirmation_via_dialog

if ask_for_confirmation_via_dialog('1110'):
    # Do something...

Old

from ppms import ppms
from ppms.constants import *

ppms.ui_message_id('1110')
msg = ppms.msg_pop()
reply = msg.get_reply()

if reply == MSG_REPLY_YES:
    # Do something...

The selection box will look like this:

import os

from ppms.user_interface import ask_user_to_select_from_list


def get_all_logfiles():
    return [logfile for logfile in os.listdir('log') if logfile.endswith('.log')]
    
def ending_stripper(logfile):
    return logfile.rstrip('.log')
    
    
logfiles = get_all_logfiles()
selected_logfile = ask_user_to_select_from_list(possible_values=logfiles, heading='Please select a logfile:', transform_value_to_text=ending_stripper)

if selected_logfile is not None:
    logfile_path = os.path.join('log', selected_logfile)

    with open(logfile_path, encoding='utf-8') as f:
        content = f.read()[-1000:]
        
        ppms.ui_message_box(content)

    except ValueError:
        return False
