столбчатые списки (columnate lists)
Имя (Name)
column - columnate lists
Синопсис (Synopsis)
column
[options] [file ...]
Описание (Description)
The column
utility formats its input into multiple columns. The
util support three modes:
columns are filled before rows
This is the default mode (required by backward
compatibility).
rows are filled before columns
This mode is enabled by option -x, --fillrows
table
Determine the number of columns the input contains and create
a table. This mode is enabled by option -t, --table
and
columns formatting is possible to modify by --table-
*
options. Use this mode if not sure.
Input is taken from file, or otherwise from standard input. Empty
lines are ignored and all invalid multibyte sequences are encoded
by x<hex> convention.
Параметры (Options)
The argument columns for --table-
* options is a comma separated
list of the column names as defined by --table-columns
or it's
column number in order as specified by input. It's possible to
mix names and numbers. The special placeholder '0' (e.g. -R0) may
be used to specify all columns.
-J, --json
Use JSON output format to print the table, the option
--table-columns
is required and the option --table-name
is
recommended.
-c, --output-width
width
Output is formatted to a width specified as number of
characters. The original name of this option is --columns
;
this name is deprecated since v2.30. Note that input longer
than width is not truncated by default.
-d, --table-noheadings
Do not print header. This option allows the use of logical
column names on the command line, but keeps the header hidden
when printing the table.
-o, --output-separator
string
Specify the columns delimiter for table output (default is
two spaces).
-s, --separator
separators
Specify the possible input item delimiters (default is
whitespace).
-t, --table
Determine the number of columns the input contains and create
a table. Columns are delimited with whitespace, by default,
or with the characters supplied using the --output-separator
option. Table output is useful for pretty-printing.
-N, --table-columns
names
Specify the columns names by comma separated list of names.
The names are used for the table header or to address column
in option arguments.
-l, --table-columns-limit
number
Specify maximal number of the input columns. The last column
will contain all remaining line data if the limit is smaller
than the number of the columns in the input data.
-R, --table-right
columns
Right align text in the specified columns.
-T, --table-truncate
columns
Specify columns where text can be truncated when necessary,
otherwise very long table entries may be printed on multiple
lines.
-E, --table-noextreme
columns
Specify columns where is possible to ignore unusually long
(longer than average) cells when calculate column width. The
option has impact to the width calculation and table
formatting, but the printed text is not affected.
The option is used for the last visible column by default.
-e, --table-header-repeat
Print header line for each page.
-W, --table-wrap
columns
Specify columns where is possible to use multi-line cell for
long text when necessary.
-H, --table-hide
columns
Don't print specified columns. The special placeholder '-'
may be used to hide all unnamed columns (see
--table-columns
).
-O, --table-order
columns
Specify columns order on output.
-n, --table-name
name
Specify the table name used for JSON output. The default is
"table".
-L, --keep-empty-lines
Preserve whitespace-only lines in the input. The default is
ignore empty lines at all. This option's original name was
--table-empty-lines
but is now deprecated because it gives
the false impression that the option only applies to table
mode.
-r, --tree
column
Specify column to use tree-like output. Note that the
circular dependencies and other anomalies in child and parent
relation are silently ignored.
-i, --tree-id
column
Specify column with line ID to create child-parent relation.
-p, --tree-parent
column
Specify column with parent ID to create child-parent
relation.
-x, --fillrows
Fill rows before filling columns.
-V
, --version
Display version information and exit.
-h, --help
Display help text and exit.
Окружение (Environment)
The environment variable COLUMNS
is used to determine the size of
the screen if no other information is available.
История (History)
The column command appeared in 4.3BSD-Reno.
Ошибки (баги) (Bugs)
Version 2.23 changed the -s
option to be non-greedy, for example:
printf "a:b:c\n1::3\n" | column -t -s ':'
Old output:
a b c
1 3
New output (since util-linux 2.23):
a b c
1 3
Historical versions of this tool indicated that "rows are filled
before columns" by default, and that the -x
option reverses this.
This wording did not reflect the actual behavior, and it has
since been corrected (see above). Other implementations of column
may continue to use the older documentation, but the behavior
should be identical in any case.
Примеры (Examples)
Print fstab with header line and align number to the right:
sed 's/#.*//' /etc/fstab | column --table --table-columns SOURCE,TARGET,TYPE,OPTIONS,PASS,FREQ --table-right PASS,FREQ
Print fstab and hide unnamed columns:
sed 's/#.*//' /etc/fstab | column --table --table-columns SOURCE,TARGET,TYPE --table-hide -
Print a tree:
echo -e '1 0 A\n2 1 AA\n3 1 AB\n4 2 AAA\n5 2 AAB' | column --tree-id 1 --tree-parent 2 --tree 3
1 0 A
2 1 |-AA
4 2 | |-AAA
5 2 | `-AAB
3 1 `-AB
