DESCRIPTION
Many programs generate tabular output. But sometimes you need to
post-process these tables, you may need to remove one or more columns or
you may want to filter for some pattern or you may need the output in
another program and need to parse it somehow. Standard unix tools such
as awk(1), grep(1) or column(1) may help, but sometimes it's a tedious
business.
Let's take the output of the tool kubectl. It contains cells with
withespace and they do not separate columns by TAB characters. This is
not easy to process.
You can use tablizer to do these and more things.
tablizer analyses the header fiels of a table, registers the column
positions of each header field and separates columns by those positions.
Without any options it reads its input from "STDIN", but you can also
specify a file as a parameter. If you want to reduce the output by some
regular expression, just specify it as its first parameters. Hence:
# read from STDIN
kubectl get pods | tablizer
# read a file
tablizer filename
# search for pattern in a file (works like grep)
tablizer regex filename
# search for pattern in STDIN
kubectl get pods | tablizer regex
The output looks like the original one but every header field will have
a numer associated with it, e.g.:
NAME(1) READY(2) STATUS(3) RESTARTS(4) AGE(5)
These numbers denote the column and you can use them to specify which
columns you want to have in your output:
kubectl get pods | tablizer -c1,3
You can specify the numbers in any order but output will always follow
the original order.
The numbering can be suppressed by using the -n option.
Finally the -d option enables debugging output which is mostly usefull
for the developer.
OUTPUT MODES
There might be cases when the tabular output of a program is way too
large for your current terminal but you still need to see every column.
In such cases the -o extended or -X option can be usefull which enables
*extended mode*. In this mode, each row will be printed vertically,
header left, value right, aligned by the field widths. Here's an
example:
kubectl get pods | ./tablizer -o extended
NAME: repldepl-7bcd8d5b64-7zq4l
READY: 1/1
STATUS: Running
RESTARTS: 1 (71m ago)
AGE: 5h28m
You can of course still use a regex to reduce the number of rows
displayed.
The option -o shell can be used if the output has to be processed by the
shell, it prints variable assignments for each cell, one line per row:
kubectl get pods | ./tablizer -o extended ./tablizer -o shell
NAME="repldepl-7bcd8d5b64-7zq4l" READY="1/1" STATUS="Running" RESTARTS="9 (47m ago)" AGE="4d23h"
NAME="repldepl-7bcd8d5b64-m48n8" READY="1/1" STATUS="Running" RESTARTS="9 (47m ago)" AGE="4d23h"
NAME="repldepl-7bcd8d5b64-q2bf4" READY="1/1" STATUS="Running" RESTARTS="9 (47m ago)" AGE="4d23h"
You can use this in an eval loop.
Beside normal ascii mode (the default) and extended mode there are more
output modes available: orgtbl which prints an Emacs org-mode table and
markdown which prints a Markdown table.

Many programs generate tabular output. But sometimes you need to
post-process these tables, you may need to remove one or more columns
or you may want to filter for some pattern or you may need the output
in another program and need to parse it somehow. Standard unix tools
such as \fBawk\fR\|(1), \fBgrep\fR\|(1) or \fBcolumn\fR\|(1) may help, but sometimes it's a
tedious business.
.PP
Let's take the output of the tool kubectl. It contains cells with
withespace and they do not separate columns by \s-1TAB\s0 characters. This is
not easy to process.
.PP
You can use \fBtablizer\fR to do these and more things.
.PP
\&\fBtablizer\fR analyses the header fiels of a table, registers the column
positions of each header field and separates columns by those
positions.
.PP
Without any options it reads its input from \f(CW\*(C`STDIN\*(C'\fR, but you can also
specify a file as a parameter. If you want to reduce the output by
some regular expression, just specify it as its first
parameters. Hence:
.PP
.Vb 2
\& # read from STDIN
\& kubectl get pods | tablizer
\&
\& # read a file
\& tablizer filename
\&
\& # search for pattern in a file (works like grep)
\& tablizer regex filename
\&
\& # search for pattern in STDIN
\& kubectl get pods | tablizer regex
.Ve
.PP
The output looks like the original one but every header field will
have a numer associated with it, e.g.:
.PP
.Vb 1
\& NAME(1) READY(2) STATUS(3) RESTARTS(4) AGE(5)
.Ve
.PP
These numbers denote the column and you can use them to specify which
columns you want to have in your output:
.PP
.Vb 1
\& kubectl get pods | tablizer \-c1,3
.Ve
.PP
You can specify the numbers in any order but output will always follow
the original order.
.PP
The numbering can be suppressed by using the \fB\-n\fR option.
.PP
Finally the \fB\-d\fR option enables debugging output which is mostly
usefull for the developer.

.IX Subsection "OUTPUT MODES"
There might be cases when the tabular output of a program is way too
large for your current terminal but you still need to see every
column. In such cases the \fB\-o extended\fR or \fB\-X\fR option can be
usefull which enables \fIextended mode\fR. In this mode, each row will be
printed vertically, header left, value right, aligned by the field
widths. Here's an example:
.PP
.Vb 6
\& kubectl get pods | ./tablizer \-o extended
\& NAME: repldepl\-7bcd8d5b64\-7zq4l
\& READY: 1/1
\& STATUS: Running
\& RESTARTS: 1 (71m ago)
\& AGE: 5h28m
.Ve
.PP
You can of course still use a regex to reduce the number of rows
displayed.
.PP
The option \fB\-o shell\fR can be used if the output has to be processed
by the shell, it prints variable assignments for each cell, one line
per row:
.PP
.Vb 4
\& kubectl get pods | ./tablizer \-o extended ./tablizer \-o shell
\& NAME="repldepl\-7bcd8d5b64\-7zq4l" READY="1/1" STATUS="Running" RESTARTS="9 (47m ago)" AGE="4d23h"
\& NAME="repldepl\-7bcd8d5b64\-m48n8" READY="1/1" STATUS="Running" RESTARTS="9 (47m ago)" AGE="4d23h"
\& NAME="repldepl\-7bcd8d5b64\-q2bf4" READY="1/1" STATUS="Running" RESTARTS="9 (47m ago)" AGE="4d23h"
.Ve
.PP
You can use this in an eval loop.
.PP
Beside normal ascii mode (the default) and extended mode there are
more output modes available: \fBorgtbl\fR which prints an Emacs org-mode
table and \fBmarkdown\fR which prints a Markdown table.
