One thing that takes up a ton of time is getting the output to look right. With csvformat you can take any text string that is formatted in CSV and create a nice table format. Example:
func main() {
csvstuff := getCsv() // This could be any function that returns a text string with CSV.
csvout := csvformat.NewGrid()
fmt.Println(csvout.Gridout(string(csvstuff)))
}
See minimal.go in the ex folder. Function getCsv() just does a simple http.Client to https://cdn.wsform.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/weekday.csv The main point is that you just need to format it in csv, and you don't have to do any additional formatting.
Output:
+--------------+-----------------+------------+--------------+
| Name | Abbreviation | Numeric | Numeric-2 |
+==============+=================+============+==============+
| Monday | Mon. | 1 | 01 |
| Tuesday | Tue. | 2 | 02 |
| Wednesday | Wed. | 3 | 03 |
| Thursday | Thu. | 4 | 04 |
| Friday | Fri. | 5 | 05 |
| Saturday | Sat. | 6 | 06 |
| Sunday | Sun. | 7 | 07 |
+--------------+-----------------+------------+--------------+
Better Example:
func main() {
csvtext := fmt.Sprintf("One,Two,Three\nFour,Five,Six\nSeven,Eight,Nine")
csvgrid := csvformat.NewGrid()
csvgrid.Headline = "First,Second,Third" // This is optional. If the CSV already contains a heading line. don't set this.
csvgrid.Render = rendr // There are several different formats.
out, err := csvgrid.Gridout(csvtext)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("error:", err)
os.Exit(1)
}
fmt.Println(out)
}Output:
+----------+-----------+----------+
| First | Second | Third |
+==========+===========+==========+
| One | Two | Three |
| Four | Five | Six |
| Seven | Eight | Nine |
+----------+-----------+----------+
