Command line tool for generating markdown tables. It takes in CSV-formatted data and converts it into a markdown table.
See also Crates.io link.
mdtable -f table.csv -o mdtable.md
mdtable -f table.csv > mdtable.md
cat table.csv | mdtable > mdtable.md
See Options
for additional flags.
The application expects each row of the table as rows in the input, i.e rows separated by newlines. Each element of the row is seperated by a ,
(or another value, see flag -s
).
This can either come from a file with the -f
flag or from stdin. If from stdin you signal end of table by either EOF
or by an empty line (i.e hitting enter twice).
See examples of input and output here.
If you're a rust programmer (e.g you have rustc
and cargo
) simply do:
cargo install mdtable-cli
If you don't want to download rustc
and cargo
you can download the binary directly from the releases page. Put it in a folder in your path, for example /usr/local/bin
.
If you don't trust random binaries from github you can build it yourself from source:
git clone git@github.com:AxlLind/mdtable-cli.git
cd mdtable-cli
cargo build --release
cp target/release/mdtable /usr/local/bin/
``` USAGE: mdtable [FLAGS] [OPTIONS]
