Crate tiny_table 

A terminal table renderer with column sizing, truncation, wrapping, and section separators.

The crate is designed around three core building blocks:

• Table holds headers, rows, and the rendering configuration.
• Column defines a header plus default styling for a column.
• Cell lets you override styling or truncation on individual values.

Quick Start

use tiny_table::{Cell, Column, Align, Table, Trunc};

let mut table = Table::with_columns(vec![
    Column::new("Name").width(0.30),
    Column::new("Role").truncate(Trunc::Middle),
    Column::new("Status"),
]);

table.add_section("Team").align(Align::Left);
table.add_row(vec![
    Cell::new("Ada Lovelace"),
    Cell::new("Principal Engineer"),
    Cell::new("Active").bright_green().bold(),
]);

let rendered = table.render();
assert!(rendered.contains("Name"));
assert!(rendered.contains("Ada Lovelace"));

How It Fits Together

• Use Table::with_columns when you already know the schema.
• Use Table::add_row to append values.
• Use Table::column to tweak one column by index or header text.
• Use Table::add_section or Table::add_separator to break the table into visual groups.
• Use Table::render when you want the formatted string, or Table::print when you just want to write it to standard output.

When a terminal width is available, fractional columns are distributed across the remaining content width after fixed and content-based columns are resolved.
