How do I display the records fetched from my database to my listwidget?

@Tejaswini_14 hi and welcome to devnet,

Did you follow what people already suggested/asked to do on this thread ?

Actually I am at the beginning level in Python and I have made some changes to my code but whenever I click on QRadioButton it shows "Python has stopped working".

Sorry, but nobody is going to be able to help you from that description of a problem.

Here is my code

db=sqlite3.connect("fantcktdb.db")
cur=db.cursor()

@Tejaswini_14
I think you need to read carefully through the posts above. If I say so myself, you/the OP did not respond to my own reply, which I think would indicate you cannot just go for row in records::

@Abhishek_98
Do you not get items added to the list widget, or do you get blank items? What is item.text() each time?

rec=cur.fetchall()

Does that not return a list of rows?

for item in rec:

Then item would be a row, not a column value in a row. Even if it's a result set with just one row of one column. If item is a row, what is item.text()?

Python's print(rec) can print what it likes, probably str(rec).

Tejaswini_14

I am fetching only one column which is "Player", then why should I use index values. Also I have tried to use index when I fetch all columns. e.g.

if (self.batRadio.isChecked()==True):
            bat='BAT'
            sql="SELECT * FROM stats WHERE Ctg='"+bat+"';"
            cur.execute(sql)
            records=cur.fetchall()
            for row in records:
                item=row[0]
                print(item)
                self.listWidget.addItem(item.text())

Because the fact that your particular SELECT statement is only returning one column, instead of say SELECT column1, column2, column3, does not alter cur.fetchall()'s behaviour of returning a list or rows, each of which holds a list of columns. Hence I assume you need row[0] to pick out column #0.

Also I have tried to use index when I fetch all columns. e.g.

And? You don't say what happens? You have print(item) yet you don't bother to tell us what that shows, or even if it gets hit? And I asked

What is item.text() each time?

but you don't show that, so I don't know what you actually passing in self.listWidget.addItem(item.text())?

Tejaswini_14

I am getting error like this when I execute query seperately

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python36\Scripts\FantasyCricket.py", line 17, in <module>
cur.execute('''SELECT * FROM stats WHERE Ctg="BAT";''')
sqlite3.OperationalError: no such table: stats

Even if I have the table stats stored in database

Hi
make very, very sure that it finds
"fantcktdb.db"
else it will create new empty one
so if you have yours in say your project folder, then
when run it might create a new one in build folder.
so please use full path to it to be sure it find the one you have data in.

JonB

@Tejaswini_14
So since you are using Python sqlite3 library calls, not Qt ones, to access your database this is a Python issue not a Qt one, and you would be better asking that in a Python/SQLite forum. It also means that adding to a QListWidget is not itself an issue.

EDIT This post has crossed with @mrjj's which is quite possibly the cause. If you're not sure where the database file is being picked up, perhaps (temporarily) change your db=sqlite3.connect("fantcktdb.db") to specify the full path to the intended file location.

Tejaswini_14

@mrjj It helped me. Thanks a lot!! But I have provided the path as- "C:\Python36\fantcktdb.db"
and also I needed to open and close the database connection for every QRadioButton

@JonB Thanks a lot!! It worked for me.

Be careful how you do this in Python. If you have a literal you must double the backslahes, e.g.

db=sqlite3.connect("C:\\Python36\\fantcktdb.db")

and also I needed to open and close the database connection for every QRadioButton

You should not be doing this. Opening/closing a db is "slow", you should keep a connection open and re-use it.
