I checked the specification of cols attribute of AsciiDoc table & internal implementation of Asciidoctor
I tried to put together a cheat sheet for AsciiDoc's Table, but I was addicted to it, so I'll leave a note of it first.
Introduction --About the difference between AsciiDoc and Asciidoctor
I just understood (; ・ ∀ ・)
Quoted from AsciiDoc --Wikipedia:
A Ruby implementation of an AsciiDoc translator called "Asciidoctor" was announced on GitHub
Roughly summarized AsciiDoc = language specifications Asciidoctor = Software that processes AsciiDoc data (.adoc file) and converts it to HTML
Table attributes
Example
[grid="rows",format="csv"]
[options="header",cols="^,<,<s,<,>m"]
I found a lot of samples when I googled, but I couldn't find an exhaustive document, so I searched near the executable file and searched for the manual. As a result, I found such an adoc file (below), so I compiled (?) With asciidoctor.
When I searched for GitHub, there was a document.
Excerpt from syntax.adoc [^ 1] below
I can't find the explanation for colspec ...
In the example, it corresponds to the contents of cols =" ^, <, <s, <,> m ".
And start investigating the internal implementation ...
I can't find the explanation of colspec, so I looked at the source.
(The source is This on GitHub. If you have installed C: \ Ruby26-x64 \ lib \ ruby \ gems \ 2.6.0 \ gems \ asciidoctor-2.0.12 \ lib \ asciidoctor \ It's around .)
Processing picking up'cols'
parser.rb (excerpt)
def self.parse_table(table_reader, parent, attributes)
：
if (attributes.key? 'cols') && !(colspecs = parse_colspecs attributes['cols']).empty?
：
parser.rb(Excerpt & Supplement)
# Line
def self.parse_colspecs records # 1
records = records.delete ' ' if records.include? ' ' # 2
# check for deprecated syntax: single number, equal column spread # 3
if records == records.to_i.to_s # 4
return ::Array.new(records.to_i) { { 'width' => 1 } } # 5
end # 6
# 7
specs = [] # 8
# NOTE -1 argument ensures we don't drop empty records # 9
((records.include? ',') ? (records.split ',', -1) : (records.split ';', -1)).each do |record| # 10
if record.empty? # 11
specs << { 'width' => 1 } # 12
# TODO might want to use scan rather than this mega-regexp # 13
elsif (m = ColumnSpecRx.match(record)) # 14
：
--In the 4th to 6th lines, the case where only the number of columns is specified like cols = 4 is processed.
--From the 10th line onward, the case where the format is specified for each column such as cols =" ^, <, <s, <,> m " is processed.
If there is ,, it seems to be divided by ,, otherwise it seems to be divided by ;.
--The 14th and subsequent lines will be examined in detail below.
Contents of parameters of'cols = "xxx, xxx, xxx"'xxx
First, check the regular expression ColumnSpecRx on the 14th line above.
rx.rb (excerpt & supplement)
# m[1] m[2] m[3] m[4]
# <---> <-------------------------------------> <-------> <----->
ColumnSpecRx = /^(?:(\d+)\*)?([<^>](?:\.[<^>]?)?|(?:[<^>]?\.)?[<^>])?(\d+%?|~)?([a-z])?$/
[Overview] Both can be omitted
--m [1]: integer * ・ ・ ・ Number of column repetitions
--m [2]: Horizontal direction (< or^or>) . Vertical direction (< or^or>) ・ ・ ・ Alignment Horizontal (left justified, center justified, Right-justified) and vertical (top-justified, center-justified, bottom-justified).
. and later can be omitted. Alternatively, you can omit the part before ..
--m [3]: integer% or ~ ・ ・ ・ Column width. % Can be omitted.
--m [4]: Character ・ ・ ・ Format specification
parser.rb(Excerpt & Supplement)
elsif (m = ColumnSpecRx.match(record)) # 14
spec = {} # 15
if m[2] # 16 m[2]
# make this an operation # 17
colspec, rowspec = m[2].split '.' # 18
if !colspec.nil_or_empty? && TableCellHorzAlignments.key?(colspec) # 19
spec['halign'] = TableCellHorzAlignments[colspec] # 20
end # 21
if !rowspec.nil_or_empty? && TableCellVertAlignments.key?(rowspec) # 22
spec['valign'] = TableCellVertAlignments[rowspec] # 23
end # 24
end # 25
# 26
if (width = m[3]) # 27 m[3]
# to_i will strip the optional % # 28
spec['width'] = width == '~' ? -1 : width.to_i # 29
else # 30
spec['width'] = 1 # 31
end # 32
# 33
# make this an operation # 34
if m[4] && TableCellStyles.key?(m[4]) # 35 m[4]
spec['style'] = TableCellStyles[m[4]] # 36
end # 37
# 38
if m[1] # 39 m[1]
1.upto(m[1].to_i) { specs << spec.merge } # 40
else # 41
specs << spec # 42
end # 43
end # 44

Characters that can be used for alignment and formatting
parser.rb (excerpt)
# Internal: A Hash mapping horizontal alignment abbreviations to alignments
# that can be applied to a table cell (or to all cells in a column)
TableCellHorzAlignments = {
'<' => 'left',
'>' => 'right',
'^' => 'center'
}
# Internal: A Hash mapping vertical alignment abbreviations to alignments
# that can be applied to a table cell (or to all cells in a column)
TableCellVertAlignments = {
'<' => 'top',
'>' => 'bottom',
'^' => 'middle'
}
# Internal: A Hash mapping styles abbreviations to styles that can be applied
# to a table cell (or to all cells in a column)
TableCellStyles = {
'd' => :none,
's' => :strong,
'e' => :emphasis,
'm' => :monospaced,
'h' => :header,
'l' => :literal,
'a' => :asciidoc
}
Sequel (I checked cell formatting)
environment
Ruby 2.6.0 Asciidoctor 2.0.12
I don't remember Ruby because I installed it before I knew it. .. .. Asciidoctor was installed by referring to Asciidoctor installation procedure (Windows10).
In my environment, it is installed below. (Sources and manuals are also included.)
