I am trying to write a program in Python using customtkinter that emulates key presses for one game. I have set it up so that at the start of the program, a .json file with the keys specified by the user in comboboxes as the keys they use in the game is created. My question is, how can I make it so that if the keybinds.json file already exists, the app = customtkinter.CTk will not be created, but instead "w = customtkinter.CTk" will be created and the .json file will be read there? Here is the code:
import tkinter
import customtkinter
import keyboard
from time import sleep
import json
import os
customtkinter.set_appearance_mode("dark") # Modes: system (default), light, dark
customtkinter.set_default_color_theme("dark-blue") # Themes: blue (default), dark-blue, green
app = customtkinter.CTk() # create CTk window like you do with the Tk window
app.geometry("600x480")
app.resizable(False, False)
app.title("Keybinds for ENigma")
screen_width = app.winfo_screenwidth()
screen_height = app.winfo_screenheight()
x_coordinate = (screen_width/2) - (600/2)
y_coordinate = (screen_height/2) - (440/2)
def submit():
keybinds = {
"Jump": JumpKey.get(),
"Aim Up": AIMUp.get(),
"Move Up": UPMoveKey.get(),
"Move Left": LEFTMoveKey.get(),
"Move Right": RIGHTMoveKey.get(),
"Move Down": DOWNMoveKey.get(),
"Light Attack": LIGHTATTACKKey.get(),
"Heavy Attack": HEAVYATTACKKey.get(),
"Dodge": DodgeKey.get()
}
with open("keybinds.json", "w") as file:
json.dump(keybinds, file)
app.destroy()
w=customtkinter.CTk()
w.geometry("620x580")
w.title('Enigma v0.1')
w.resizable(False, False)
screen_width = w.winfo_screenwidth()
screen_height = w.winfo_screenheight()
x_coordinate = (screen_width/2) - (620/2)
y_coordinate = (screen_height/2) - (580/2)
with open("./keybinds.json") as f:
keybindData = json.load(f)
JUMP = keybindData["Jump"]
AIMUP = keybindData["Aim Up"]
UP = keybindData["Move Up"]
LEFT = keybindData["Move Left"]
RIGHT = keybindData["Move Right"]
DOWN = keybindData["Move Down"]

DODGE = keybindData["Dodge"]

i dont know what to try

If statement at the end inserted and loading from there, passing loaded data to
submit. However,appstill gets created and destroyed. You will have to refactor your code to smaller functions and call them appropriately to avoid this.Just to give an idea, this is an example using two windows inheriting from tkinter.Toplevel.
