I'm using graphlab to print out recommendations and have my tkinter GUI which currently prints out the recommendation results in the console and I'm lost on how to get it to print in the GUI.

Class "UserID" is where i have a button that calls the "printrec" function but only prints out the recommendations in the console.

from Tkinter import *
import sqlite3




class Welcome():

     def __init__(self,master):


          self.master=master
          self.master.geometry('170x110+100+200')
          self.master.title('Welcome!')

          self.label1=Label(self.master,text='Music Recommender',fg='black', bg="red").grid(row=0,column=1)
          self.button1=Button(self.master,text="Enter UserID",fg='black', bg="blue", command=self.gotoUserID).grid(row=1,column=1)
          self.button2=Button(self.master,text="Comparing models",fg='black', bg="blue").grid(row=2,column=1)
          #self.button3=Button(self.master,text="Click to print recs",fg='red',command=self.rec).grid(row=3,column=1)
          self.button4=Button(self.master,text="Exit",fg='black' , bg="blue",command=self.exit).grid(row=4,column=1)




     def exit(self):
        #exit button#
          self.master.destroy()

     def gotoUserID(self):
        #USERID GUI#    
          root2=Toplevel(self.master)
          myGUI=UserID(root2)

class UserID():
    #userID class prints song recs 
     def __init__(self,master):


          self.userRec=int()

          self.master=master
          self.master.geometry('400x250+100+200')
          self.master.title('ID recommender')

          self.label2=Label(self.master,text='Welcome to the Music Recommender',fg='red').grid(row=0,column=0)
          self.label2=Label(self.master,text='Please enter UserID: ',fg='black').grid(row=3,column=0)

          self.ID=Entry(self.master,textvariable=self.userRec).grid(row=3,column=1)
          self.button4=Button(self.master,text="Get recommendations",fg='red',command=self.printrec).grid(row=7,column=0)
          self.button5=Button(self.master,text="Exit",fg='red',command=self.exit).grid(row=9,column=0)

     def printrec(self):
        #currently prints song recs in console
          print song_recommendations






def main():
    root=Tk()
    root.configure(background='blue')
    myGUIWelcome=Welcome(root)
    root.mainloop()

if __name__ == '__main__':
     main()

This is the model im using to recommend. It uses the graphlab package.

recs_model = gl.recommender.ranking_factorization_recommender.create(plays_df, user_id="userID", item_id="songID", target="plays")
recommendations = recs_model.recommend(users=["3a613180775197cd08c154abe4e3f67af238a632"])
song_recommendations = recommendations.join(songs_df, on="songID", how="inner").sort("rank")

This is the output I want to appear in my GUI but im not sure if its possible to print an sframe like this into tkinter.

you can make the gui:

from tkinter import *

root = Tk()

Console = Text(root)
Console.pack()

root.mainloop()

and then you can rewrite the print function:

def write(*message, end = "\n", sep = " "):
    text = ""
    for item in message:
        text += "{}".format(item)
        text += sep
    text += end
    Console.insert(INSERT, text)

and here you have the output in tkinter, you just have to call write() instead of print()
