NAME Acme::CPANModules::TextTable - Modules that generate text tables VERSION This document describes version 0.015 of Acme::CPANModules::TextTable (from Perl distribution Acme-CPANModules-TextTable), released on 2023-06-15. SYNOPSIS To run benchmark with default option: % bencher --cpanmodules-module TextTable To run module startup overhead benchmark: % bencher --module-startup --cpanmodules-module TextTable For more options (dump scenario, list/include/exclude/add participants, list/include/exclude/add datasets, etc), see bencher or run "bencher --help". DESCRIPTION Currently excluded from this list are: * Text::SimpleTable::AutoWidth (wrapper to Text::SimpleTable); * Text::ASCIITable::EasyTable (wrapper to Text::ASCIITable); ACME::CPANMODULES ENTRIES Text::Table::Any Author: PERLANCAR This is a frontend for many text table modules as backends. The interface is dead simple, following Text::Table::Tiny. The main drawback is that it currently does not allow passing (some, any) options to each backend. Text::SimpleTable Author: MRAMBERG As its name implies, a simple table-generating module with minimal documentation and a few choices or border characters. You have to set the width of all columns manually. Text::UnicodeBox::Table Author: EWATERS The main feature of this module is the various border style it provides drawn using Unicode box-drawing characters. It allows per-row style. The rendering speed is particularly slow compared to other modules. Text::Table::Manifold Author: RSAVAGE Two main features of this module is per-column aligning and wide character support. This module, aside from doing its rendering, can also be told to pass rendering to HTML, CSV, or other text table module like Text::UnicodeBox::Table); so in this way it is similar to Text::Table::Any. Text::ANSITable Author: PERLANCAR This 2013 project was my take in creating a text table module that can handle color, multiline text, wide characters. I also threw in various formatting options, e.g. per-column/row/cell align/valign/pad/vpad, conditional formatting, and so on. I even added a couple of features I never used: hiding rows and specifying columns to display which can be in different order from the original specified columns or can contain the same original columns multiple times. I think this module offers the most formatting options on CPAN. In early 2021, I needed colspan/rowspan and I implemented this in a new module: Text::Table::Span (later renamed to Text::Table::More). I plan to add this feature too to Text::ANSITable, but in the meantime I'm also adding more formatting options which I need to Text::Table::More. Text::ASCIITable Author: LUNATIC Text::FormatTable Author: TREY Text::MarkdownTable Author: VOJ Text::Table Author: SHLOMIF Text::Table::Tiny Author: NEILB The simple and tiny table-generating module which I liked back in 2012 (v0.03). It employs an sprintf() trick to generate a single row. This module started my personal experiments creating other table-generating modules (at last count I've created no fewer than 15 of them!). Text::Table::TinyBorderStyle Author: PERLANCAR Text::Table::More Author: PERLANCAR A module I wrote in early 2021. Main distinguishing feature is support for rowspan/clospan. I plan to add more features to this module on an as-needed basic. This module is now preferred to Text::ANSITable, although currently it does not offer nearly as many formatting options as Text::ANSITable. Text::Table::Sprintf Author: PERLANCAR A performant (see benchmark result) and lightweight (a page of code, no use of modules at all), but with minimal extra features.

An Acme::CPANModules::* module, like this module, contains just a list of module names that share a common characteristics. It is a way to categorize modules and document CPAN. See Acme::CPANModules for more details. What are ways to use this Acme::CPANModules module? Aside from reading this Acme::CPANModules module's POD documentation, you can install all the listed modules (entries) using cpanm-cpanmodules script (from App::cpanm::cpanmodules distribution): % cpanm-cpanmodules -n TextTable Alternatively you can use the cpanmodules CLI (from App::cpanmodules distribution): % cpanmodules ls-entries TextTable | cpanm -n or Acme::CM::Get: % perl -MAcme::CM::Get=TextTable -E'say $_->{module} for @{ $LIST->{entries} }' | cpanm -n or directly: % perl -MAcme::CPANModules::TextTable -E'say $_->{module} for @{ $Acme::CPANModules::TextTable::LIST->{entries} }' | cpanm -n This Acme::CPANModules module contains benchmark instructions. You can run a benchmark for some/all the modules listed in this Acme::CPANModules module using the bencher CLI (from Bencher distribution): % bencher --cpanmodules-module TextTable This Acme::CPANModules module also helps lcpan produce a more meaningful result for "lcpan related-mods" command when it comes to finding related modules for the modules listed in this Acme::CPANModules module. See App::lcpan::Cmd::related_mods for more details on how "related modules" are found. HOMEPAGE Please visit the project's homepage at . SOURCE Source repository is at .

Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You can simply modify the code, then test via: % prove -l If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla, Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two other Dist::Zilla- and/or Pod::Weaver plugins. Any additional steps required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me. COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE This software is copyright (c) 2023, 2021, 2020, 2019 by perlancar .
