[PATCH] doc-rst: flat-table directive - initial implementation

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Implements the reST flat-table directive.

The ``flat-table`` is a double-stage list similar to the ``list-table`` with
some additional features:

* column-span: with the role ``cspan`` a cell can be extended through
  additional columns

* row-span: with the role ``rspan`` a cell can be extended through
  additional rows

* auto span rightmost cell of a table row over the missing cells on the right
  side of that table-row.  With Option ``:fill-cells:`` this behavior can
  changed from *auto span* to *auto fill*, which automaticly inserts (empty)

list tables

  The *list tables* formats are double stage lists. Compared to the
  ASCII-art they migth be less comfortable for readers of the
  text-files. Their advantage is, that they are easy to create/modify
  and that the diff of a modification is much more meaningfull, because
  it is limited to the modified content.

The initial implementation was taken from the sphkerneldoc project [1]

+list tables
+-----------
+
+We recommend to use *list table* formats. The *list table* formats are double
+stage lists. Compared to the ASCII-art they migth not be as comfortable for
+readers of the text-files. Their advantage is, that they are easy to
+create/modify and that the diff of a modification is much more meaningfull,
+because it is limited to the modified content.
+
+The ``flat-table`` is a double-stage list similar to the ``list-table`` with
+some additional features:
+
+* column-span: with the role ``cspan`` a cell can be extended through
+  additional columns
+
+* row-span: with the role ``rspan`` a cell can be extended through
+  additional rows
+
+* auto span rightmost cell of a table row over the missing cells on the right
+  side of that table-row.  With Option ``:fill-cells:`` this behavior can
+  changed from *auto span* to *auto fill*, which automaticly inserts (empty)
+  cells instead of spanning the last cell.
+
+options:
+
+* ``:header-rows:``   [int] count of header rows
+* ``:stub-columns:``  [int] count of stub columns
+* ``:widths:``        [[int] [int] ... ] widths of columns
+* ``:fill-cells:``    instead of autospann missing cells, insert missing cells
+
+roles:
+
+* ``:cspan:`` [int] additionale columns (*morecols*)
+* ``:rspan:`` [int] additionale rows (*morerows*)
+
+The example below shows how to use this markup.  The first level of the staged
+list is the *table-row*. In the *table-row* there is only one markup allowed,
+the list of the cells in this *table-row*. Exception are *comments* ( ``..`` )
+and *targets* (e.g. a ref to ``:ref:`last row <last row>``` / :ref:`last row
+<last row>`).
