Install

Download the latest from the releases page.

Usage

This small utility takes JSON or EDN files with multiple maps and creates a table for ease of viewing. For example:

$ cat test.json
{"foo":"bar","baz":4}
{"foo":"oof","baz":4}
$ cat test.json | tabl -j
 :baz | :foo
------|------
 4    | bar
 4    | oof

There are several table rendering modes available:

library	modes
fancy	fancy
doric	org, csv, html, raw
built-in	md, k8s

$ cat test.json | tabl -j -m org
|-----+-----|
| Foo | Baz |
|-----+-----|
| bar | 4   |
| oof | 4   |
|-----+-----|

Babashka pod support

The following namespaces and functions are exposed via the pod interface:

pod.tabl.fancy (see here for more information)
- render-table - returns table as a list of strings
- print-table - prints a table based on data
pod.tabl.doric
- table - returns table as a list of strings (see here for more information)
- print-table - prints a table based on data

Example:

#!/usr/bin/env bb

(require '[babashka.pods :as pods])
(pods/load-pod "tabl")

(require '[pod.tabl.fancy :as fancy])
(require '[pod.tabl.doric :as doric])

;;
(fancy/print-table [{:foo 1 :bar 2} {:foo 2 :bar 3}])
(doric/print-table [{:foo 1 :bar 2} {:foo 2 :bar 3}])
(doric/print-table {:format 'doric.org} [{:foo 1 :bar 2} {:foo 2 :bar 3}])

See pod_test.clj for more examples.
