term-table-rs

The purpose of term-table-rs is to make displaying table data in CLI apps easier

Here is an example of how to create a table

```rust let mut table = Table::new(); table.maxcolumnwidth = 40;

table.style = TableStyle::extended();

table.addrow(Row::new(vec![ TableCell::newwith_alignment("This is some centered text", 2, Alignment::Center) ]));

table.addrow(Row::new(vec![ TableCell::new("This is left aligned text", 1), TableCell::newwith_alignment("This is right aligned text", 1, Alignment::Right) ]));

table.addrow(Row::new(vec![ TableCell::new("This is left aligned text", 1), TableCell::newwith_alignment("This is right aligned text", 1, Alignment::Right) ]));

table.add_row(Row::new(vec![ TableCell::new("This is some really really really really really really really really really that is going to wrap to the next line", 2), ]));

println!("{}", table.render());

```

Here's the result

Table Styles

It is possible to define your own table styles by creating a new instance of TableStyle

This is what the extend table style implementation looks like. This is the defualy style in term-table-rs

rust pub fn extended() -> TableStyle { return TableStyle { top_left_corner: '╔', top_right_corner: '╗', bottom_left_corner: '╚', bottom_right_corner: '╝', outer_left_vertical: '╠', outer_right_vertical: '╣', outer_bottom_horizontal: '╩', outer_top_horizontal: '╦', intersection: '╬', vertical: '║', horizontal: '═', }; }

TableStyle also implements a simple() table style function and a blank() table style function

Those styles looks like this

Blank

Simple

Column Widths

It is possible to control the maximum width of table columns. The max_column_width property of Table can be set to restrict the width of all TableCells. The set_max_column_width function of Table can be used to set the max width of a specific column. The set_max_column_widths function provides the ability to set the width of multiple columns by passing in a Vec of tuples containing an index and width.
