Module table 

The table block: rows and columns, header rows, per-column alignment, merged cells and a caption. A cell holds inlines.

A stored table can be damaged (a hand-edited file, a bug), so nothing that draws a table reads rows by position: Table::layout turns any stored table into the one grid every renderer agrees on, and Table::normalized writes that grid back as a stored table. Reading a file never normalizes it.

Structs

PlacedCell

A cell of Table::layout: where it stands in the grid, what it covers. It borrows its text from the table, so a footnote in it can be kept for as long as the table lives (the EPUB writer collects notes by reference).

Table

A table: { "type": "table", "columns": …, "rows": … } in book.json (the block’s JSON is flat; Block::Table(Table)).

TableCell

One cell of a Table: inlines only (a cell of two paragraphs is two lines of one cell, joined by Inline::LineBreak).

TableColumn

One column of a Table.

TableLayout

The table the model means: a complete grid. Every position is covered exactly once, every row has a cell of its own, no span crosses the table’s edge or the header boundary. Cells are in reading order (by row, then column).

Enums

ColumnAlign

How the text of a column (or one cell) is aligned.

Constants

MAX_AUTO_COLUMNS

The widest table Table::layout makes when columns is empty and the width has to be taken from the rows.
