Write tables
Write a Markdown table
- Sample Code:
from pytablewriter import MarkdownTableWriter def main(): writer = MarkdownTableWriter() writer.table_name = "example_table" writer.headers = ["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() if __name__ == "__main__": main()
- Output:
# 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| |-10|-9.90| |False| NaN|2017-01-01 00:00:00+0900|
- Rendering Result:
Write a Markdown table with a margin
- Sample Code:
from pytablewriter import MarkdownTableWriter def main(): writer = MarkdownTableWriter() writer.table_name = "write example with a margin" writer.headers = ["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.margin = 1 # add a whitespace for both sides of each cell writer.write_table() if __name__ == "__main__": main()
- Output:
# write example with a margin | 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 | | -10 | -9.90 | | False | NaN | 2017-01-01 00:00:00+0900 |
margin attribute can be available for all of the text format writer classes.

from_dataframe method of writer classes will set up tabular data from pandas.DataFrame:
- Sample Code:
from textwrap import dedent import pandas as pd import io from pytablewriter import MarkdownTableWriter def main(): csv_data = io.StringIO(dedent("""\ "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 = MarkdownTableWriter() writer.from_dataframe(df) writer.write_table() if __name__ == "__main__": main()
- Output:
| 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|
Adding a column of the DataFrame index if you specify add_index_column=True:
- Sample Code:
import pandas as pd from pytablewriter import MarkdownTableWriter def main(): writer = MarkdownTableWriter() writer.table_name = "add_index_column" writer.from_dataframe( pd.DataFrame({"A": [1, 2], "B": [10, 11]}, index=["a", "b"]), add_index_column=True, ) writer.write_table() if __name__ == "__main__": main()
- Output:
# add_index_column | | A | B | |---|--:|--:| |a | 1| 10| |b | 2| 11|
Write a markdown table from a space-separated values
- Sample Code:
from textwrap import dedent import pytablewriter def main(): writer = pytablewriter.MarkdownTableWriter() writer.table_name = "ps" writer.from_csv( dedent("""\ USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND root 1 0.0 0.4 77664 8784 ?

Get rendered tabular text as str
dumps method returns rendered tabular text. dumps only available for text format writers.
- Sample Code:
import pytablewriter def main(): writer = pytablewriter.MarkdownTableWriter() writer.headers = ["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"], ] print(writer.dumps()) if __name__ == "__main__": main()
- Output:
|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 45:01:23+0900| | 3| 0.00|bar |True |Infinity|2017-03-03 33:44:55+0900| |-10|-9.90| |False| NaN|2017-01-01 00:00:00+0900|
Configure table styles
Writers can specify cell Style for each column manually by column_styles attribute of writer classes.
- Sample Code:
from pytablewriter import MarkdownTableWriter from pytablewriter.style import Style def main(): writer = MarkdownTableWriter() writer.table_name = "set style by column_styles" writer.headers = [ "auto align", "left align", "center align", "bold", "italic", "bold italic ts", ] writer.value_matrix = [ [11, 11, 11, 11, 11, 11], [1234, 1234, 1234, 1234, 1234, 1234], ] # specify styles for each column writer.column_styles = [ Style(), Style(align="left"), Style(align="center"), Style(font_weight="bold"), Style(font_style="italic"), Style(font_weight="bold", font_style="italic", thousand_separator=","), ] writer.write_table() if __name__ == "__main__": main()
- Output:
# set style by styles |auto align|left align|center align| bold |italic|bold italic ts| |---------:|----------|:----------:|-------:|-----:|-------------:| | 11|11 | 11 | **11**| _11_| _**11**_| | 1234|1234 | 1234 |**1234**|_1234_| _**1,234**_|
You can also set Style to a specific column with index or header by using set_style method:
- Sample Code:
from pytablewriter import MarkdownTableWriter from pytablewriter.style import Style def main(): writer = MarkdownTableWriter() writer.headers = ["A", "B", "C",] writer.value_matrix = [[11, 11, 11], [1234, 1234, 1234]] writer.table_name = "set style by column index" writer.set_style(1, Style(align="center", font_weight="bold")) writer.set_style(2, Style(thousand_separator=" ")) writer.write_table() writer.write_null_line() writer.table_name = "set style by header" writer.set_style("B", Style(font_style="italic")) writer.write_table() if __name__ == "__main__": main()
- Output:
# set style by column index | A | B | C | |---:|:------:|----:| | 11| **11** | 11| |1234|**1234**|1 234| # set style by header | A | B | C | |---:|-----:|----:| | 11| _11_| 11| |1234|_1234_|1 234|
Style filter
Example:
Make tables for specific applications
Render a table on Jupyter Notebook
Multibyte character support
Write a table using multibyte character
You can use multibyte characters as table data. Multibyte characters also properly padded and aligned.
- Sample Code:
import pytablewriter def main(): writer = pytablewriter.RstSimpleTableWriter() writer.table_name = "生成に関するパターン" writer.headers = ["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() if __name__ == "__main__": main()
- Output:
Multi processing
You can increase the number of workers to process table data via max_workers attribute of a writer. The more max_workers the less processing time when tabular data is large and the execution environment has available cores.
if you increase max_workers larger than one, recommend to use main guarded as follows to avoid problemes caused by multi processing:
from multiprocessing import cpu_count
import pytablewriter as ptw
def main():
writer = ptw.MarkdownTableWriter()
writer.max_workers = cpu_count()
...
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
