basictable

Small library to print structured data in tables

License

MIT

Installation

pip3 install basictable

Data Format

The recordset format is a list of dictionaries where the dictionary keys are the column headings. All the records are required to have the same number of columns and same heading values (keys)

[
    {'Col1':data1, 'Col2': data2, 'Col3':data2, 'Col4':'data4'},
    {'Col1':data1, 'Col2': data2, 'Col3':data2, 'Col4':'data4'},
    {'Col1':data1, 'Col2': data2, 'Col3':data2, 'Col4':'data4'},
    {'Col1':data1, 'Col2': data2, 'Col3':data2, 'Col4':'data4'},
]

Usage

>>> from basictable import print_table
>>> data = []
>>> for i in range(20):
...  data.append({'Col1':1, 'Col2': "test", 'Col3':'test test', 'Col4':'some longer string'})
...
>>> print_table(data)
