4.2.1.10. Space Aligned

SpaceAlignedTableWriter class can write a table that aligned column with multiple spaces, to the stream from a data matrix.

Sample Code:

Write a space-aligned table

import pytablewriter

def main():
    writer = pytablewriter.SpaceAlignedTableWriter()
    writer.headers = ["PID", "USER", "PR", "NI", "VIRT", "RES", "SHR", "S", "%CPU", "%MEM", "TIME+", "COMMAND"]
    writer.value_matrix = csv1 = [
        [32866, "root", 20, 0, 48344, 3924, 3448, "R", 5.6, 0.2, "0:00.03", "top"],
        [1, "root", 20, 0, 212080, 7676, 5876, "S", 0, 0.4, "1:06.56", "systemd"],
        [2, "root", 20, 0, 0, 0, 0, "S", 0, 0, "0:01.92", "kthreadd"],
        [4, "root", 0, -20, 0, 0, 0, "S", 0, 0, "0:00.00", "kworker/0:0H"],
    ]

    writer.write_table()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

Output:

 PID   USER  PR  NI    VIRT   RES   SHR   S  %CPU  %MEM   TIME+     COMMAND
32866  root  20    0   48344  3924  3448  R   5.6   0.2  0:00.03  top
    1  root  20    0  212080  7676  5876  S     0   0.4  1:06.56  systemd
    2  root  20    0       0     0     0  S     0     0  0:01.92  kthreadd
    4  root   0  -20       0     0     0  S     0     0  0:00.00  kworker/0:0H
