Tabler

Tabler is a simple bot that lets you create readable, simple or complex tables in your server. It uses a range of easy to understand options to let you create awesome looking tables.

Get started

To create a table, you can use the t!table command. It takes two main arguments over two lines:

• The first line, right after the command, is where you provide options, such as --singleLine.
• The second line, and any subsequent lines, are used for the rows, columns and content of the table.

Here's an example of a simple table you can create with one option:

Let's break it down:

• The command t!table is used along with an option, --col(1).width=20, and 3 rows of content
• The option --col(1).width=20 tells the bot to set the first column's content (being Name, Frederick and Bob) to have a width of 20 spaces across.
• The table's rows and content are being split by a |, which tells the bot to make a new column

Pretty easy, isn't it?
