In some CLI designs, you want to output a number similar items in a +human-readable way with nicely aligned columns. However, figuring out how wide +to make each column is a boring problem to solve and eats your valuable time. + +Here is an example: + +```go +package main + +import ( + "fmt" + "github.com/ryanuber/columnize" +) + +func main() { + output := []string{ + "Name | Gender | Age", + "Bob | Male | 38", + "Sally | Female | 26", + } + result := columnize.SimpleFormat(output) + fmt.Println(result) +} +``` + +As you can see, you just pass in a list of strings. And the result: + +``` +Name Gender Age +Bob Male 38 +Sally Female 26 +``` + +Columnize is tolerant of missing or empty fields, or even empty lines, so +passing in extra lines for spacing should show up as you would expect. + +Configuration +============= + +Columnize is configured using a `Config`, which can be obtained by calling the +`DefaultConfig()` method. You can then tweak the settings in the resulting +`Config`: + +``` +config := columnize.DefaultConfig() +config.Delim = "|" +config.Glue = " " +config.Prefix = "" +config.Empty = "" +``` + +* `Delim` is the string by which columns of **input** are delimited +* `Glue` is the string by which columns of **output** are delimited +* `Prefix` is a string by which each line of **output** is prefixed +* `Empty` is a string used to replace blank values found in output + +You can then pass the `Config` in using the `Format` method (signature below) to +have text formatted to your liking. + +See the [godoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/ryanuber/columnize) page for usage. |
