List to Table Formatter for .NET

The List to Table Formatter for .NET is a versatile library designed to convert lists of objects into well-formatted table displays. It supports customizable padding, border styles, and header text styles to enhance readability. Ideal for console applications and logging, this library ensures your data is presented in a clear and structured manner.

Installation

You can install the package via NuGet:

Usage

Here is a basic example of how to use the List to Table Formatter: See the ConsoleDemo for more advanced implementation.

// Pass your list to the DisplayTable method and write the table to the console. (Cast the list as an object)
var table = listToTableDisplay.DisplayTable(MyList.Cast<object>().ToList());
System.Console.WriteLine(table);

Formatting Notes

• A monospaced font is required for proper table formatting.
• UTF-8 encoding is required for the modern table format to display correctly.

Customization

You can customize the table display by setting various properties on the TableDisplay object. For example, you can change the padding, border style, and header text style:

ListToTableDisplay.ListToTableDisplay listToTableDisplay = new()
{
    Padding = 1,
    HeaderTextStyle = ListToTableDisplay.HeaderTextStyle.SplitPascalCase,
    BorderStyle = ListToTableDisplay.BorderStyle.Classic,
};
