Module grid

Module grid 

Source
Expand description

Where a table’s cells sit on its grid.

Every parser in the family records a merged cell once, on the cell that owns it: the positions it covers — the tail of a horizontal span, and the columns a vertical span occupies in the rows below — have no cell of their own. So a cell’s index in its row is not its grid column once a vertical span from a row above sits to its left, and a row’s cell count is not the table’s width once a cell spans columns. place walks the spans to recover both — the same walk whatever the document format was, done here once.

std-only, like the rest of the crate root.

Structs§

Placement
Where each cell of a table sits: see place.
Span
How many grid rows and columns a cell owns, its own position included. A span of 0 is read as 1.

Functions§

place
The grid column each cell starts in, and the table’s width, for rows given as their cells’ spans in reading order.
