# ascii-pretty-table

[ascii-pretty-table](https://www.npmjs.com/package/ascii-pretty-table), A simple and light weight library for creating ASCII tables.

[docs](https://www.imranbarbhuiya.github.io/ascii-pretty-table/)

## Uses

Install

```bash

npm install ascii-pretty-table

```

Example

```js

const ascii = require("ascii-pretty-table"); //commonjs

import ascii from "ascii-pretty-table"; //es6

const table = new ascii("A Title");

table.setHeading("Column 1", "Column 2");

table.addRow("Row 1", "Row 2");

table.addRow("Row 3", "Row 4");

console.log(table.toString());

```

Result

```js

+....................+

|      A Title       |

+''''''''''''''''''''+

| Column 1 | Column 2|

+''''''''''''''''''''+

|   Row 1  |  Row 2  |

+''''''''''''''''''''+

|   Row 3  |  Row 4  |

+''''''''''''''''''''+

```

You can create table without headings as well.

You can export or import table as JSON.

```js

const ascii = require("ascii-pretty-table");

const table = new ascii("A Title");

table.addRow("Row 1", "Row 2");

table.addRow("Row 3", "Row 4");

const json = table.toJSON();

const newTable = new ascii();

newTable.fromJSON(json);

```

Change separators

```js

table.setSeparators({

  top: ".",

  bottom: "'",

  edge: "|",

  fill: "-",

  corner: "+",

});

```
