# Scribe
Pretty-print tables of Elixir structs and maps. Inspired by [hirb](https://github.com/cldwalker/hirb).
## Installation
1. Add `scribe` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:
```elixir
def deps do
[{:scribe, "~> 0.1.0"}]
end
```
## Usage
Print an array of maps as a table. Header columns are taken from the map keys of the first element.
```
iex(1)> data = [%{key: "value", another_key: 123}, %{key: "test", another_key: :key}]
iex(2)> Scribe.print(data)
+--------------+---------+
| :another_key | :key |
+--------------+---------+
| 123 | "value" |
+--------------+---------+
| :key | "test" |
+--------------+---------+
:ok
```
Useful for printing results of Ecto queries
```
# %User{id: nil, email: nil}
results =
User
|> limit(5)
|> Repo.all
|> Scribe.print
