Write a Markdown table
----------------------

:Sample Code:
.. code:: python

import pytablewriter

writer = pytablewriter.MarkdownTableWriter()
writer.table_name = "example_table"
writer.header_list = ["int", "float", "str", "bool", "mix", "time"]
writer.value_matrix = [
[0, 0.1, "hoge", True, 0, "2017-01-01 03:04:05+0900"],
[2, "-2.23", "foo", False, None, "2017-12-23 45:01:23+0900"],
[3, 0, "bar", "true", "inf", "2017-03-03 33:44:55+0900"],
[-10, -9.9, "", "FALSE", "nan", "2017-01-01 00:00:00+0900"],
]

writer.write_table()


:Output:
.. code::

# example_table
int|float|str |bool | mix | time
--:|----:|----|-----|-------:|------------------------
0| 0.10|hoge|True | 0|2017-01-01 03:04:05+0900
2|-2.23|foo |False| |2017-12-23 12:34:51+0900
3| 0.00|bar |True |Infinity|2017-03-03 22:44:55+0900

---------------------------------------------------------

:Sample Code:
.. code:: python

import pandas as pd
import pytablewriter
from StringIO import StringIO

csv_data = StringIO(u""""i","f","c","if","ifc","bool","inf","nan","mix_num","time"
1,1.10,"aa",1.0,"1",True,Infinity,NaN,1,"2017-01-01 00:00:00+09:00"
2,2.20,"bbb",2.2,"2.2",False,Infinity,NaN,Infinity,"2017-01-02 03:04:05+09:00"
3,3.33,"cccc",-3.0,"ccc",True,Infinity,NaN,NaN,"2017-01-01 00:00:00+09:00"
""")
df = pd.read_csv(csv_data, sep=',')

writer = pytablewriter.MarkdownTableWriter()
writer.from_dataframe(df)

3|3.33|cccc|-3.0|ccc|True |Infinity|NaN| NaN|2017-01-01 00:00:00+09:00

Create Elasticsearch index and put data
---------------------------------------

:Sample Code:
.. code:: python

import datetime
import json

from elasticsearch import Elasticsearch
import pytablewriter as ptw

es = Elasticsearch(hosts="localhost:9200")

writer = ptw.ElasticsearchWriter()
writer.stream = es
writer.index_name = "es writer example"
writer.header_list = [
"str", "byte", "short", "int", "long", "float", "date", "bool", "ip",
]
writer.value_matrix = [
[
"abc", 100, 10000, 2000000000, 200000000000, 0.1,
datetime.datetime(2017, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5), True, "127.0.0.1",
],
[
"def", -10, -1000, -200000000, -20000000000, 100.1,
datetime.datetime(2017, 6, 5, 4, 5, 2), False, "::1",
],
]

# delete existing index ---
es.indices.delete(index=writer.index_name, ignore=404)

# create an index and put data ---
writer.write_table()

# display the result ---
es.indices.refresh(index=writer.index_name)

print("----- mappings -----")
response = es.indices.get_mapping(index=writer.index_name, doc_type="table")
print("{}\n".format(json.dumps(response, indent=4)))

print("----- documents -----")
response = es.search(
index=writer.index_name,
doc_type="table",
body={
"query": {"match_all": {}}
}
)
for hit in response["hits"]["hits"]:
print(json.dumps(hit["_source"], indent=4))


:Output:
.. code:: json

}

Write a table using multibyte character
---------------------------------------

You can use multibyte character as table data.

:Sample Code:
.. code:: python

import pytablewriter

writer = pytablewriter.RstSimpleTableWriter()
writer.table_name = "生成に関するパターン"
writer.header_list = ["パターン名", "概要", "GoF", "Code Complete[1]"]
writer.value_matrix = [
["Abstract Factory", "関連する一連のインスタンスを状況に応じて、適切に生成する方法を提供する。", "Yes", "Yes"],
["Builder", "複合化されたインスタンスの生成過程を隠蔽する。", "Yes", "No"],
["Factory Method", "実際に生成されるインスタンスに依存しない、インスタンスの生成方法を提供する。", "Yes", "Yes"],
["Prototype", "同様のインスタンスを生成するために、原型のインスタンスを複製する。", "Yes", "No"],
["Singleton", "あるクラスについて、インスタンスが単一であることを保証する。", "Yes", "Yes"],
]
writer.write_table()
