etabs 0.1.0

Python library for rendering latex tables in an easy way

etabs

Python library for building and rendering latex tables in an easy way.

Instalation

pip install etabs

Simple example

Code:

from etabs import RuleType, TexTable

# Example values
values = [
    [60, 20, 20],
    [50, 40, 10],
    [30, 10, 60],
    [5, 90, 5],
]

row_labels = ["A", "B", "C", "D"]
col_labels = ["C1", "C2", "C3"]

# TexTabel is the main structure for creating tables
table = TexTable(centered=True, caption="Example table")

# Add rows
table.add_row(None, *col_labels) # First value empty, rest are column labels
for label, row in zip(row_labels, values):
    table.add_row(label, *row)

# You can optionally add rules at specific rows
table.add_rule(0, RuleType.TOP)
table.add_rule(1)  # By default, the rule is a midrule

# If no row is specified, it will be added at the end
table.add_rule(rule_type=RuleType.BOTTOM)

# Finally to get the latex code use the render method
print(table.render())

Output:

\begin{figure}[h!]
    \centering
    \caption{Example table}
    \vspace{0.5em}
    \begin{tabular}{cccc}
        \toprule
         & C1 & C2 & C3 \\
        \midrule
        A & 60 & 20 & 20 \\
        B & 50 & 40 & 10 \\
        C & 30 & 10 & 60 \\
        D & 5 & 90 & 5 \\
        \bottomrule
    \end{tabular}
\end{figure}

A little more styled example

from etabs import RuleType, TexTable

# Example values
values = [
    [60, 20, 20],
    [50, 40, 10],
    [30, 10, 60],
    [5, 90, 5],
]

col_labels = ["C1", "C2", "C3"]

table = TexTable(centered=True, caption="Example table")

# Add values
table.add_row(*col_labels, start=2)  # Colum 0 and 1 are empty
for row in values:
    # Preprocess each value to show as percentage
    table.add_row(*row, prep=lambda x: f"{x} \\%", start=2)

# Add a vertical separator before column 2
table.seps[2] = "|"

# Assign values directly
table[1, 1] = table[3, 1] = "A1"
table[2, 1] = table[4, 1] = "B2"

# Merge cells using slices
table[0, 0:2] = "Types"
table[1:3, 0] = "Typa A"
table[3:, 0] = "Typa B"

# Add some style using slices too
table[0, :].set_bold(True)
table[:, 0:2].set_bold(True)
table[1:, 0:2].set_italic(True)

# Add rules
table.add_rule(0, RuleType.TOP)
table.add_rule(1)
table.add_rule(rule_type=RuleType.BOTTOM)

print(table.render())

Output:

\begin{figure}[h!]
    \centering
    \caption{Example table}
    \vspace{0.5em}
    \begin{tabular}{cc|ccc}
        \toprule
        \multicolumn{2}{c|}{\textbf{Types}} & \textbf{C1} & \textbf{C2} & \textbf{C3} \\
        \midrule
        \multirow{2}{*}{\textit{\textbf{Typa A}}} & \textit{\textbf{A1}} & 60 \% & 20 \% & 20 \% \\
         & \textit{\textbf{B2}} & 50 \% & 40 \% & 10 \% \\
        \multirow{2}{*}{\textit{\textbf{Typa B}}} & \textit{\textbf{A1}} & 30 \% & 10 \% & 60 \% \\
         & \textit{\textbf{B2}} & 5 \% & 90 \% & 5 \% \\
        \bottomrule
    \end{tabular}
