Could someone help me with getting my program to print user specific information based on which user is logged into the program from info on a txt file. I have a menu in my program which only displays the current users tasks by typing in "vm". This is supposed to show only the tasks assigned to the user. I was able to show the user all tasks for all users but how would I extract only user specific info from a txt file.
The txt file is as follows:
User assigned to task:
admin
Task Title :
Help
Task Description:
Help Granny
Task Due Date:
2020-01-24
Date Assigned:
2020-01-24
Task Completed:
No
...........................
User assigned to task:
johndoe
Task Title :
Walk
Task Description:
Walk the dog
Task Due Date:
2020-01-26
Date Assigned:
2020-01-24
Task Completed:
No
How would I finish my last line of code if I just wanted to print the task for johndoe
The code I have so far is as follows:
import datetime
users = {}
with open ('user.txt', 'rt')as username:
for line in username:
username, password = line.split(",")
users[username.strip()] = password.strip() # strip removes leading/trailing whitespaces
uinput = input("Please enter your username:\n")
while uinput not in users:
print("Username incorrect.")
uinput = input("Please enter a valid username:\n")
if uinput in users:
print ("Username correct")
with open('user.txt', 'rt') as password:
for line in password:
username, password = line.split(",")
users[password.strip()] = username.strip() # strip removes leading/trailing whitespaces
uinput2 = input("Please enter your password:\n")
while uinput2 not in users:
print("Your username is correct but your password is incorrect.")
uinput2 = input("Please enter a valid password:\n")
if uinput2 in users:
password2 = ("Password correct")
print (password2)
if password2 == ("Password correct"):
menu = (input("\nPlease select one of the following options:\nr - register user\na - add task\nva - view all tasks\nvm - view my tasks\ne - exit\n"))
if menu == "r" or menu == "R":
new_user = (input("Please enter a new user name:\n"))
new_password = (input("Please enter a new password:\n"))
with open ('user.txt', 'a')as username:
username.write("\n" + new_user + ", " + new_password)
elif menu == "a" or menu == "A":
task = input("Please enter the username of the person the task is assigned to.\n")
while task not in username:
task = input("Username not registered. Please enter a valid username.\n")
else:
task_title = input("Please enter the title of the task.\n")
task_description = input("Please enter the task description.\n")
task_due = input("Please input the due date of the task. (yyyy-mm-dd)\n")
date = datetime.date.today()
task_completed = False
if task_completed == False:
task_completed = "No"
else:
task_completed = ("Yes")
with open('tasks.txt', 'a') as task:
task.write("\nUser assigned to task:\n" + uinput + "\nTask Title :" + "\n" + task_title + "\n" + "Task Description:\n" + task_description + "\n" + "Task Due Date:\n" + task_due + "\n" + "Date Assigned:\n" + str(date) + "\n" + "Task Completed:\n" + task_completed + "\n")
elif menu == "va" or menu == "VA":
all_tasks = open('tasks.txt', 'r')
text = all_tasks.read()
all_tasks.close()
print(text)
elif menu == "vm" or menu == "VM"
Any help would really be appreciated. Thank you
