Python Table Printer
Project description
Description
Print a list of python dicts as an organized table.
The code is mostly copied from this Stack Overflow comment with the following additions: - customization of the top and bottom line characters - customization of the alignment (‘left’ or ‘right’) - automatic truncation of text that is longer than the column width with ellipses (’…’) - ability to receive a separate data set that will be printed as a totals row at the bottom of the table by passing optional argument
Installation
pip install table_printer
Usage
from table_printer import TablePrinter fmt = [ ('Title', 'title', 50, 'left'), ('Description', 'description', 50, 'right'), ] data = [{'title': 'Hello', 'description': 'World'}] totals = {'title': 'TOTAL', '1 title'} print TablePrinter(fmt, sep='|', ul='=', tl='-', bl='_')(data, totals)
Output
--------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------- Title | Description ==================================================|================================================== Hello | World ==================================================|================================================== TOTAL | 1 title __________________________________________________|__________________________________________________
