Simple eyecandy ASCII tables with auto-selection columns width, as seen in Catalyst.
METHODS
new(@attrs)
Inherited constructor from Moo. You can set following attributes:
fixed_width
Set fixed width for resulting table. By default it's 0, that's mean "don't fix width", so width of result table will depend on input data.
Be warned, that fixed_width will include not only width of your data, but also all surronding characters, like spaces across values, table drawings (like '|') and hypen (if wrapping is needed).
max_width
Set maximum width for resulting table. By default it's 0, that's mean "use default value". Default value is stored in $Text::SimpleTable::AutoWidth::WIDTH_LIMIT, and can be changed at any moment. Default value for WIDTH_LIMIT is 200.
Be warned, that max_width will include not only width of your data, but also all surronding characters, like spaces across values, table drawings (like '|') and hypen (if wrapping is needed).
NB: if you set fixed_width and max_width at same time, then you'll get table with fixed width, but not wider than max_width characters.
captions
ArrayRef[Str] for captions in resulting table.
rows
ArrayRef[ArrayRef[Str]] for values in each row. You can use next method to add individual rows into table.
row(@texts)
Add new row to table. Return $self, so you can write something like this:
print Text::SimpleTable::AutoWidth
->new( max_width => 55, captions => [qw/ Name Age /] )
->row( 'Mother', 59 )
->row( 'Dad', 58 )
->row( 'me', 32 )
->draw();draw()
Draw table. Really, just calculate column width, and then call Text::SimpleTable->draw().
