Struct comfy_table::column::Column

pub struct Column {
    pub index: usize,
    // some fields omitted
}

Fields

index: usize

The index of the column

Methods

impl Column

pub fn new(index: usize) -> Self

pub fn set_padding(&mut self, padding: (u16, u16)) -> &mut Self

Set the padding for all cells of this column Padding is provided in the form of (left, right). Default is (1, 1)

pub fn get_max_content_width(&self) -> u16

Get the width in characters of the widest line in this column.

pub fn set_constraint(&mut self, constraint: Constraint) -> &mut Self

Set the constraint for this column. Adding a constraint allows to define some additional styling parameters for columns This can be useful to counter undesired auto-formatting of content in tables.

pub fn get_constraint(&mut self) -> Option<&Constraint>

Get the constraint that is used for this column.

pub fn set_cell_alignment(&mut self, alignment: Option<CellAlignment>)

Set the alignment for content inside of cells for this column If the alignment attribute is set on a cell in this column as well, The cell's alighment value will overwrite the column's setting.
