# formatador

STDOUT text formatting

[![Build Status](https://github.com/geemus/formatador/actions/workflows/ruby.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/geemus/formatador/actions/workflows/ruby.yml)

## Quick and dirty

You can call class methods to print out single lines like this:

```ruby
Formatador.display_line('Hello World')
```

You use tags, similar to html, to set formatting options:

```ruby
Formatador.display_line('[green]Hello World[/]')
```

`[/]` resets everything to normal, colors are supported and `[_color_]` sets the background color.

## Standard options

* format - and adds color codes if STDOUT.tty? is true
* display - calls format on the input and prints it
* display_line - calls display, but adds on a newline (\n)
* redisplay - Displays text, prepended with \r which will overwrite the last existing line

## Extensions

* display_table: takes an array of hashes. Each hash is a row, with the keys being the headers and values being the data. An optional second argument can specify which headers/columns to include and in what order they should appear.
* display_compact_table: Same as display_table, execpt that split lines are not drawn by default in the body of the table. If you need a split line, put a :split constant in the body array.
* redisplay_progressbar: takes the current and total values as its first two arguments and redisplays a progressbar (until current = total and then it display_lines). An optional third argument represents the start time and will add an elapsed time counter.

### Progress Bar examples

```ruby
total = 1000
progress = Formatador::ProgressBar.new(total)

1000.times do
progress.increment
end

#=> 978/1000 |************************************************* |

# Change the color of the bar
total = 1000
progress = Formatador::ProgressBar.new(total, :color => "light_blue")

1000.times do
progress.increment
end

# Change the color of a completed progress bar
total = 1000
progress = Formatador::ProgressBar.new(total) { |b| b.opts[:color] = "green" }

1000.times do
progress.increment
end
```

### Table examples

```ruby
table_data = [
{ :name => "Joe", :food => "Burger" },
{ :name => "Bill", :food => "French fries" }
]
Formatador.display_table(table_data)

#=> +------+--------------+
# | name | food |
# +------+--------------+
# | Joe | Burger |
# +------+--------------+
# | Bill | French fries |
# +------+--------------+

table_data = [
{
:name => "Joe",
:meal => {
:main_dish => "Burger",
:drink => "water"
}
},
{
:name => "Bill",
:meal => {
:main_dish => "Chicken",
:drink => "soda"
}
}
]
Formatador.display_table(table_data, [:name, :"meal.drink"])

#=> +------+------------+
# | name | meal.drink |
# +------+------------+
# | Joe | water |
# +------+------------+
# | Bill | soda |
# +------+------------+
```

## Indentation

By initializing a formatador object you can keep track of indentation:

```ruby
formatador = Formatador.new
formatador.display_line('one level of indentation')
formatador.indent {
formatador.display_line('two levels of indentation')
}
formatador.display_line('one level of indentation')
```
