## Install
```
npm install console.table --save
bower install console.table --save
```
## Use in Node
```
// call once somewhere in the beginning of the app
const cTable = require('console.table');
console.table([
{
name: 'foo',
age: 10
}, {
name: 'bar',
age: 20
}
]);
// prints
name age
---- ---
foo 10
bar 20
```
You can pass multiple strings and arrays in a single console.table call.
Each argument will be formatted and printed separately on new line
**Get only table string**
```
const table = cTable.getTable([
{
name: 'foo',
age: 10
}, {
name: 'bar',
age: 20
}
]);
console.log(table);
// prints
name age
---- ---
foo 10
bar 20
```
## Use in browser
**INCOMPLETE, PROBABLY CHROME ONLY FOR NOW**
```html
console.table([{name: 'foo'}, {name: 'bar'}]);
```
## Details
Uses [easy-table](https://www.npmjs.org/package/easy-table) for printing
to console.log
If first argument is a string, and a second argument is an array, prints
title row
```sh
console.table('Several objects', [...]);
Several objects
---------------
name age
---- ---
foo 10
bar 20
baz 30
```
## Printing array with column names
You can use the given column names when printing an array of arrays. For example,
```sh
var values = [
['max', 20],
['joe', 30]
];
console.table(['name', 'age'], values);
name age
---- ---
max 20
joe 30
```
If the titles is the first item in the array, just use `slice`
```js
var values = [
['name', 'age'],
['max', 20],
['joe', 30]
]
console.table(values[0], values.slice(1));
```
