#### Example 1 - Basic
```go
data := [][]string{
[]string{"A", "The Good", "500"},
[]string{"B", "The Very very Bad Man", "288"},
[]string{"C", "The Ugly", "120"},
[]string{"D", "The Gopher", "800"},
}
table := tablewriter.NewWriter(os.Stdout)
table.SetHeader([]string{"Name", "Sign", "Rating"})
for _, v := range data {
table.Append(v)
}
table.Render() // Send output
```
##### Output 1
```
+------+-----------------------+--------+
| NAME | SIGN | RATING |
+------+-----------------------+--------+
| A | The Good | 500 |
| B | The Very very Bad Man | 288 |
| C | The Ugly | 120 |
| D | The Gopher | 800 |
+------+-----------------------+--------+
```
#### Example 2 - Without Border / Footer / Bulk Append
```go
data := [][]string{
[]string{"1/1/2014", "Domain name", "2233", "$10.98"},
[]string{"1/1/2014", "January Hosting", "2233", "$54.95"},
[]string{"1/4/2014", "February Hosting", "2233", "$51.00"},
[]string{"1/4/2014", "February Extra Bandwidth", "2233", "$30.00"},
}
table := tablewriter.NewWriter(os.Stdout)
table.SetHeader([]string{"Date", "Description", "CV2", "Amount"})
table.SetFooter([]string{"", "", "Total", "$146.93"}) // Add Footer
table.SetBorder(false) // Set Border to false
table.AppendBulk(data) // Add Bulk Data
table.Render()
```
##### Output 2
```
DATE | DESCRIPTION | CV2 | AMOUNT
-----------+--------------------------+-------+----------
1/1/2014 | Domain name | 2233 | $10.98
1/1/2014 | January Hosting | 2233 | $54.95
1/4/2014 | February Hosting | 2233 | $51.00
1/4/2014 | February Extra Bandwidth | 2233 | $30.00
-----------+--------------------------+-------+----------
TOTAL | $146 93
--------+----------
```
#### Example 3 - CSV
```go
table, _ := tablewriter.NewCSV(os.Stdout, "testdata/test_info.csv", true)
table.SetAlignment(tablewriter.ALIGN_LEFT) // Set Alignment
table.Render()
```
##### Output 3
```
+----------+--------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| FIELD | TYPE | NULL | KEY | DEFAULT | EXTRA |
+----------+--------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| user_id | smallint(5) | NO | PRI | NULL | auto_increment |
| username | varchar(10) | NO | | NULL | |
| password | varchar(100) | NO | | NULL | |
+----------+--------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
```
#### Example 4 - Custom Separator
```go
table, _ := tablewriter.NewCSV(os.Stdout, "testdata/test.csv", true)
table.SetRowLine(true) // Enable row line
// Change table lines
table.SetCenterSeparator("*")
table.SetColumnSeparator("╪")
table.SetRowSeparator("-")
table.SetAlignment(tablewriter.ALIGN_LEFT)
table.Render()
```
##### Output 4
```
*------------*-----------*---------*
╪ FIRST NAME ╪ LAST NAME ╪ SSN ╪
*------------*-----------*---------*
╪ John ╪ Barry ╪ 123456 ╪
*------------*-----------*---------*
╪ Kathy ╪ Smith ╪ 687987 ╪
*------------*-----------*---------*
╪ Bob ╪ McCornick ╪ 3979870 ╪
*------------*-----------*---------*
```

table.SetBorders(tablewriter.Border{Left: true, Top: false, Right: true, Bottom: false})
table.SetCenterSeparator("|")
table.AppendBulk(data) // Add Bulk Data
table.Render()
```
##### Output 5

#### Render table into a string
Instead of rendering the table to `io.Stdout` you can also render it into a string. Go 1.10 introduced the `strings.Builder` type which implements the `io.Writer` interface and can therefore be used for this task. Example:
```go
package main
import (
"strings"
"fmt"
"github.com/olekukonko/tablewriter"
)
func main() {
tableString := & strings.Builder{}
2019-08-30 09:55:06 +02:00
table := tablewriter.NewWriter(tableString)
2019-05-31 09:10:48 +02:00
/*
* Code to fill the table
*/
table.Render()
fmt.Println(tableString.String())
}
```
