New feature: provide a means of obtaining table geometry. #369
Description
- g.w: table width with frame elements,
- g.h: table height with frame elements,
- g.c_w: width of each column without frame elements,
- g.r_h: height of each row without frame elements,
- g.f_w: width of horizontal frame elements,
- g.f_h: the height of vertical frame elements.
Example:
>>> print(tabulate(table, headers, tablefmt="simple"))
item qty
------ ----- )1
spam 42
eggs 451
bacon 0

>>> g = geometry(table, headers, tablefmt="simple"))
>>> g.w
13
>>> g.h

>>> g.c_w
(6, 5)
>>> g.r_h
(1, 1, 1, 1)
>>> g.f_w
(0, 2, 0)
>>> g.f_h
(0, 1, 0, 0, 0)
>>> print(tabulate(table, headers, tablefmt="grid"))
+--------+-------+ )1

Thanks to the information provided, I'm able to configure the table generation correctly, for example, so that it doesn't exceed a maximum width...
Thank you for your work.
