如何使用 SQL 数据库更改 QCalendarWidget 中单元格的背景颜色

Question

This is not duplicate question of How to Output sql data onto a QCalendarWidget

This is an addon of that question.

This also isn't a duplicate of Highlight date interval in a Qt5 Calendar Widget as this is just highlighting cells when the user selects it on the actual QT page and not by using SQL data. It also isn't a duplicate question of Coloring PyQt5 QCalendarWidget cell and printing data inside the cells as the answer doesnt do what i want my program to do which is to change the background Colour of a particular cell of the calendar using my sql database to do this, as well as i couldnt get the answer to work.

In the first linked question i was asking how a user would press a date and it would output the text corresponding to that date if that date was in a sql database. With some help I managed to get this working. Now what i want to do is highlight those dates with a blue background like how the current date is highlighted by a red background.

My QT page i have made is this:

My QT Page

My Database is this:

My database

And my code is this:

Ive tried to follow your comments and i have done this:

    crsr.execute('SELECT Date FROM Calendar2 WHERE Number = ?', (Count,))
        Dates3 = crsr.fetchone()
        Dates3 = str(Dates3)
        Dates3 = Dates3.replace("'", "")
        Dates3 = Dates3.replace('(', '')
        Dates3 = Dates3.replace(')', '')
        Dates3 = Dates3.replace(',', '')
        print(All_Dates)

        print(Dates3)
        Dates3 = Dates3.replace('/', ',')


        self.dates = { QDate(2020, 3, 20): ["Um Sure"] }

        format = QTextCharFormat() 
        format.setBackground(QColor("salmon")) 
        self.calendarWidget.setDateTextFormat(Dates3, format)

whever i try to run this i get this error:

Message=setDateTextFormat(self, Union[QDate, datetime.date], QTextCharFormat): argument 1 has unexpected type 'str'

I've tried to use the self.dates variable but that also didn't work. I'm not sure how to convert the date into a format thats acceptable for the QDate part of the output.

Ok everything works but when i made this while loop i was just wondering if im doing wrong python or wrong QT.

    Count = 1 
        while Count <= list3:
            connection = sqlite3.connect("Calendardatabase.db") 
            # This is the code for the database cursor 


            Current_Day = datetime.date.today().strftime("%A,")
            Current_Date = datetime.date.today().strftime("%d")
            Current_Month = datetime.date.today().strftime("%B")


            Combined_Date = ("It is a " + Current_Day + " It is the " + Current_Date + " of " + Current_Month)

            Combined_Date = str(Combined_Date)

            self.DateInfoOutput.setText(Combined_Date)

            cursor = self.editor.textCursor()



            crsr.execute('SELECT Date FROM Calendar2 WHERE Number = ?', (Count,))
            Dates3 = crsr.fetchone()
            Dates3 = str(Dates3)
            Dates3 = Dates3.replace("'", "")
            Dates3 = Dates3.replace('(', '')
            Dates3 = Dates3.replace(')', '')
            Dates3 = Dates3.replace(',', '')


            crsr.execute('SELECT Text FROM Calendar2 WHERE Number = ?', (Count,))
            Text = crsr.fetchone()
            Text = str(Text)
            Text = Text.replace("'", "")
            Text = Text.replace('(', '')
            Text = Text.replace(')', '')
            Text = Text.replace(',', '')


            print(Dates3)

            Dates3 = Dates3.replace('/', ' ')
            Dates3 = Dates3.replace("'", '')
            Dates3.split()

            sqlDay = int(Dates3[0:2])
            sqlMonth = int(Dates3[3:4])
            sqlYear = int(Dates3[6:10])



            self.dates = { QDate(sqlYear, sqlMonth, sqlDay): ["Hi"]}



            format = QTextCharFormat() 
            format.setBackground(QColor("lightblue")) 


            Count = Count + 1
            for date, value in self.dates.items(): 
                self.calendarWidget.setDateTextFormat(date, format)
                self.DateInfoOutput.setText(Text)
            else:
                self.DateInfoOutput.setText(Combined_Date)
        else:
            self.DateInfoOutput.setText(Combined_Date)

Answer 1

The procedure for this case is:

• Make the query to the database.
• Get the date as a string.
• Convert the string to QDate using the QDate.fromString() method pointing to the appropriate format, and
• set the format for that date in the QCalendarWidget using QCalendarWidget.setDateTextFormat() .

import os
import sqlite3

from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGui, QtWidgets

CURRENT_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))

if __name__ == "__main__":
    import sys

    app = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)

    calendar = QtWidgets.QCalendarWidget()
    calendar.show()

    connection = sqlite3.connect(os.path.join(CURRENT_DIR, "Calendardatabase.db"))
    crsr = connection.cursor()
    crsr.execute("""SELECT Date FROM Calendar2""")

    date_format = "d/M/yyyy"
    cell_format = QtGui.QTextCharFormat()
    cell_format.setBackground(QtGui.QColor("red"))

    for row in crsr.fetchall():
        date_str, *_ = row
        dt = QtCore.QDate.fromString(date_str, date_format)
        if dt.isValid():
            calendar.setDateTextFormat(dt, cell_format)
        else:
            print("{} does not match format {}".format(date_str, date_format))

    sys.exit(app.exec_())

Answer 2

After getting help from @eyllanesc i have fully completed my program and i'm going to leave my program here so that if anyone gets stuck they can use my program as a guide or just help in any case.

To get this program to work you will also need my database and you can get that from here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/cua9gypkl869hnm/Calendardatabase.db?dl=0 If you just put this in the same folder as the program file this should work.

Thank you for all the help @eyllanesc i would've been stuck for weeks on this problem withhout your help :)
