## How to use

First of all you need you need a model class with public getters and setters for all the fields you wany to be represented in the TableView.

    public class Person {

        private String firstName;

        private String lastName;

        private String email;

        private int age;

    

        public Person(String firstName, 

            String lastName, String email, int age) {

            this.firstName = firstName;

            this.lastName = lastName;

            this.email = email;

            this.age = age;

        }

    

        public String getFirstName() {

            return firstName;

        }

    

        public void setFirstName(String firstName) {

            this.firstName = firstName;

        }

    

        public String getLastName() {

            return lastName;

        }

    

        public void setLastName(String lastName) {

            this.lastName = lastName;

        }

    

        public String getEmail() {

            return email;

        }

    

        public void setEmail(String email) {

            this.email = email;

        }

    

        public int getAge() {

            return age;

        }

    

        public void setAge(int age) {

            this.age = age;

        }

    }

Note that naming convention is important. If a field is called `id` then getter shall be called `getId` and setter shall be called `setId`. If this requirement is not satisfied the field will not be represented in the TableView.

Then to generate the TableView you just need to use `buildUpon(Class>)` method.

    TableView personTable = ModelTableViewBuilder.buildUpon(Person.class);

    

And now you can populate it using `ObservableList`

    ObservableList data = FXCollections.observableArrayList(people);

    personTable.setItems(data);

    

TableView is ready to be shown in the layout

    container.getChildren().add(personTable);

Here is what you get
