# uitable [![GoDoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/gosuri/uitable?status.svg)](https://godoc.org/github.com/gosuri/uitable) [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/gosuri/uitable.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/gosuri/uitable)

uitable is a go library for representing data as tables for terminal applications. It provides primitives for sizing and wrapping columns to improve readability.

## Example Usage

Full source code for the example is available at [example/main.go](example/main.go)

```go

table := uitable.New()

table.MaxColWidth = 50

table.AddRow("NAME", "BIRTHDAY", "BIO")

for _, hacker := range hackers {

  table.AddRow(hacker.Name, hacker.Birthday, hacker.Bio)

}

fmt.Println(table)

```

Will render the data as:

```sh

NAME          BIRTHDAY          BIO

```

For wrapping in two columns:

```go

table = uitable.New()

table.MaxColWidth = 80

table.Wrap = true // wrap columns

for _, hacker := range hackers {

  table.AddRow("Name:", hacker.Name)

  table.AddRow("Birthday:", hacker.Birthday)

  table.AddRow("Bio:", hacker.Bio)

  table.AddRow("") // blank

}

fmt.Println(table)

```

Will render the data as:

```

Name:     Ada Lovelace

Birthday: December 10, 1815

Bio:      Ada was a British mathematician and writer, chiefly known for her work on

          Charles Babbage's early mechanical general-purpose computer, the Analytical

          Engine

Name:     Alan Turing

Birthday: June 23, 1912

Bio:      Alan was a British pioneering computer scientist, mathematician, logician,

          cryptanalyst and theoretical biologist

```
