The table is a simple tool to transform table data in CSV or SQL/CQL output format.

If you have a SQL output like that

 ---- ------------ ----------- ----------- 
| id | first_name | last_name | available |
 ---- ------------ ----------- ----------- 
|  1 | John       | Smith     |         1 |
|  2 | Mary       | McAdams   |         0 |
|  3 | Steve      | Pitt      |         1 |
...

you can easilly get a list of available only users:

$ table in.sql --filter available=1
╭────┬────────────┬───────────┬───────────╮
│ id │ first_name │ last_name │ available │
├────┼────────────┼───────────┼───────────┤
│ 1  │ John       │ Smith     │ 1         │
│ 3  │ Steve      │ Pitt      │ 1         │
│ 4  │ Mark       │ Cousins   │ 1         │
...

Also in CSV form:

$ table in.sql --filter available=1 --as csv

Or in a custom text format:

$ table in.sql --print '${first_name} ${last_name}' --filter available=1
John Smith
Steve Pitt

• Parsing table data from CSV (with simple automatic delimeter detection), SQL or Cassandra outputs
• Filtering columns based on certain criteria. Filter attempts to correctly interpret numbers (but not floating point numbers yet), instead of using only string to string comparison.
• Overriding table header to a custom one
• Moving/removing columns
• Dynamically adding new columns from a shell script output based on row data
• Custom formatting for table rows
• Automatically naming columns: col1, col2, col3 etc. if header is not specified.
• Joining of multiple table inputs
• Showing only distinct data for a column
• Sorting by the specified columns

• Reduce functions

Using homebrew on OSX or Linux:

$ brew tap sergkh/tap
$ brew install table-cli

Currently tool is built for OSX (both Intel and Apple silicon) and Linux.

• Transform SQL output from the clipboard into CSV:

OSX:

pbcopy | table

Linux:

xsel -b | table

• Filter CSV rows and show first 5 matches:

table in.csv --filter 'in_stock>=10' --limit 5

• Show only specified CSV columns:

table in.csv --columns 'name,last_name'

• Append a new column that has result of multiplication of two other columns. To substitute column value in the command ${column name} format should be used. New column gets name 'newColumn1':

table in.csv --add 'echo "${cost} * ${amount}" | bc'

• Joining two CSV files by a common column. Joins on the column named 'id' in the first file that should match 'product_id' in the second file:

table file1.csv --join file2.csv --on 'id=product_id'

• Sort columns first descending by the 'available' column and then ascending by the 'id' column:

table ./test-data/table-format.out --sort "!available,id"
