Trapezi - Easy automatically aligned text tables

τα κλειδιά είναι πάνω στο τραπέζι

This library is for creating text based tables that have automatic alignment and support coloured printing.

Usage

import "io"
import "fmt"
import "gitlab.com/alexkalderimis/trapezi"

func usageExample() {
  table := []CompoundCell{
    trapezi.Join(" | ", trapezi.Text("Name"), trapezi.Text("Value")),
    trapezi.Join(" | ", trapezi.Text("foo"), trapezi.TextR("5")),
    trapezi.Join(" | ", trapezi.Text("bar"), trapezi.TextR("17")),
  }
  trapezi.AlignTable(table)

  for _, row := range table {
    row.Render(io.Stdout)
    fmt.Println("")
  }
}

The core abstraction of this package is the Cell, with is either a SimpleCell containing a single text value, or a CompoundCell, containing other cells separated by a divider. A table row is just a compound cell, but any cell can contain other nested compound cells. Cells can be either left or right aligned.

Once the entire table is created, it can be aligned, and once aligned, rendered to a io.Writer.
