public final class Table

Object
Table

Rows and columns rendered as text, aligned by the columns each cell takes on a terminal, so styled cells, wide characters and emoji line up:

Table table = new Table("Name", "Status", "Size")
        .align(2, Table.Align.RIGHT);
table.addRow("api", Console.style("running", Console.Style.GREEN), "12 MB");
table.addRow("worker", Console.style("stopped", Console.Style.RED), "3 MB");
Console.print(table.render());

A table wider than maxWidth (the terminal by default) shrinks its widest columns and wraps their cells. A cell may hold line breaks.

Nested types

`enum Table.Align`	How a column’s cells line up.
`enum Table.Border`	The lines drawn around and between cells.

Constructors

public Table(String... headers) A table with these column headers; none for a table without a header row, whose column count then comes from its widest row.

Methods

`public` `Table align(int column, Table.Align align)`	Aligns column `column` (from 0).
`public` `Table border(Table.Border border)`	The border style; `Border.ROUNDED` by default, `Border.ASCII` when `Console.unicode` says box drawing is unsafe.
`public` `Table maxWidth(int maxWidth)`	The widest the table may be, in columns; the terminal width by default.
`public` `Table headerStyle(boolean bold)`	Whether the header row is bold (when color is on); true by default.
`public` `Table addRow(Object... cells)`	Appends a row.
`public int rowCount()`	The number of rows added so far, header excluded.
`public` `String render()`	The table as text, every line ended by a line break.
`public` `String toString()`	Returns a string representation of the object.

Constructor details

Table

public Table(String... headers)

A table with these column headers; none for a table without a header row, whose column count then comes from its widest row.

Method details

align

public Table align(int column, Table.Align align)

Aligns column column (from 0).

border

public Table border(Table.Border border)

The border style; Border.ROUNDED by default, Border.ASCII when Console.unicode says box drawing is unsafe.

maxWidth

public Table maxWidth(int maxWidth)

The widest the table may be, in columns; the terminal width by default.

headerStyle

public Table headerStyle(boolean bold)

Whether the header row is bold (when color is on); true by default.

addRow

public Table addRow(Object... cells)

Appends a row. Each value is shown as String.valueOf gives it; a row shorter than the table is padded with empty cells.

rowCount

public int rowCount()

The number of rows added so far, header excluded.

render

public String render()

The table as text, every line ended by a line break.

toString

public String toString()

Returns a string representation of the object. In general, the toString method returns a string that “textually represents” this object. The result should be a concise but informative representation that is easy for a person to read. It is recommended that all subclasses override this method. The toString method for class Object returns a string consisting of the name of the class of which the object is an instance, the at-sign character `@’, and the unsigned hexadecimal representation of the hash code of the object. In other words, this method returns a string equal to the value of: getClass().getName() + ‘@’ + Integer.toHexString(hashCode())
