Hi all,
I'm happy to announce the release of html-table 0.0.3 (beta). This is a
very different API from what you saw in 0.0.1.
A Table is now a subclass of Array, as are most of its components, which
means that you can access rows/elements etc by index number if you wish,
as well as use any of the Array/Enumerable methods for convenience.
In addition, you can now omit end tags (where permitted) as well as
capitalize your HTML tags, for those that prefer that style.
Here's an example (simple2.rb from the docs/examples directory). Note
that there is usually more than one way to accomplish the same output.
See the docs and examples for more details.
require "html/table"
include HTML
Table.html_case = "upper"
Table::Row.end_tags = false
Table::Row::Data.end_tags = false
table = Table.new
tr1 = Table::Row.new
tr2 = Table::Row.new
tr3 = Table::Row.new
tr1.content = "foo", "bar", "baz"
tr2.content = 1,2,3
tr3.content = %w/hello world/
table.push(tr1,tr2,tr3)
table[0][1].align = "left"
puts table.html
### OUTPUT ###
<TABLE>
<TR>
<TD>foo
<TD ALIGN='LEFT'>bar
<TD>baz
<TR>
<TD>1
<TD>2
<TD>3
<TR>
<TD>hello
<TD>world
</TABLE>
Regards,
Dan
PS - 0.0.2 was largely similar, but it's missing the capitalization
option, plus the tarball was somewhat messed up. That's why it was
never announced.
