[@BroCodez]

from tkinter import *
from tkinter import filedialog
def openFile():
filepath = filedialog.askopenfilename(initialdir="C:\\Users\\Cakow\\PycharmProjects\\Main",
title="Open file okay?",
filetypes= (("text files","*.txt"),
("all files","*.*")))
file = open(filepath,'r')
print(file.read())
file.close()
window = Tk()
button = Button(text="Open",command=openFile)
button.pack()
window.mainloop()

[@EltonSenne]

Simple and fast, exact what I need!

[@vadzimfiadotsyeu2967]

If you have errors about bad file type - use the following construction: filetypes=[("Text files", "*.txt"), ("Rulename", "file_extension")]

// a better easy solution to open file from dialog and close it after choosing the file:
from tkinter import *
from tkinter.filedialog import askopenfilename
root = Tk()
root.withdraw()
file_path = askopenfilename()
root.destroy()

I'm about 2 hours in to my Python learning.
I removed all the button stuff, and just did openFile() instead.

Как же прекрасно, что здесь есть субтитры на русском. Спасибо огромное!

[@vladglassofficial]

Как мне получить доступ к переменной filepath, не объявляя её глобальной, и не вызывая функцию

[@user-jn7ev3qs9e]

@@vladglassofficial По сути в питоне переменные это ссылки. И если создать переменную в функции, и с тем же названием вне функции. Это будут разные переменные, отвечающие за разные участки памяти (но на вид тебе будут казаться одинаковыми). Если тебе нужно чтото делать с переменной после исполнения функции, то return (возврати то что тебе нужно). Если тебе вообще не хочется использовать функцию, то создай переменную в основном коде.
Но я не совсем понимаю вопрос, т.к. не знаю зачем тебе это нужно.
