}Expand description
What a column holds.
wiki table-model: the kind is what carries a column’s look, and four of
the reference table’s six rules were per kind rather than per table. A
description states what the column is; each renderer decides what that
looks like in its host, from the facts below rather than from the name.
#[non_exhaustive], Width’s reasoning.
Variants (Non-exhaustive)§
This enum is marked as non-exhaustive
Text
Prose. Wraps. What a column is when it says nothing else.
Identifier
A name a machine made: a fingerprint, a hash, a slug. Monospace, and breaks mid-string rather than widening the table.
Date
A point in time. Never wraps, so a date cannot print over its neighbour, and its figures line up down the column.
Number
A quantity. Figures line up and the column aligns to its end, so magnitudes compare by length.
Code
Source text, one row per line. Monospace and never wrapped. A table holding one is read as code, so its rows are not striped or spaced as records.
Status
A state the row is in, drawn as a chip rather than as coloured text.
Actions
The row’s controls. Aligns to its end and shrinks to what it holds.
Implementations§
Source§impl ColumnKind
impl ColumnKind
Sourcepub const fn floor(self) -> u16
pub const fn floor(self) -> u16
The narrowest a column of this kind reads at, in ch, when it declares
nothing narrower.
A date is ten characters in the form every host writes, and a number cut short is a different number, so the kinds that cannot truncate floor at what they hold. Prose and identifiers wrap or break, so theirs is only enough to be recognisable.
Sourcepub const fn holds_minimum(self) -> bool
👎Deprecated since 0.50.1: a floor binds for every kind; priority decides whether a column gives up room
pub const fn holds_minimum(self) -> bool
a floor binds for every kind; priority decides whether a column gives up room
Which kinds keep their floor rather than truncating when room runs out.
Deprecated in 0.50.1, and answered by nothing. A floor is a floor:
Column::floor is documented as the narrowest a column may be before
it drops, which is what makeover-tui counts in cells and
makeover-immediate budgets in points. A kind-keyed exemption meant
makeover-webview alone drew three of the seven kinds under a floor it
had just computed for them, because nothing set their shrink to zero and
its blanking condition reaches only droppable columns. Measured at 420,
MNW’s scan pipeline drew yara, clamav, urlhaus and metadefender
as y, c, u, m while the Number columns beside them stood at
full width.
It was also the wrong axis. Shrink is distributed in proportion to basis, and an undeclared basis comes from the heading’s length, so between two columns of one priority the one with the shorter heading reached illegibility first. A column’s minimum legible width is not a fact about its label.
What varies by kind is what happens above the floor, which
wraps already says. What decides whether a column gives
up room at all is its Priority, which is the
description’s own word for it. makeover-webview 0.94.0 keys the floor
on priority, and no renderer calls this.
Kept only because deleting it is a breaking change to a crate carrying
links, so it would cascade the whole suite for a predicate with no
callers. Delete it at the next breaking bump.
Sourcepub const fn aligns_end(self) -> bool
pub const fn aligns_end(self) -> bool
Whether the column aligns to its end rather than its start.
