Columns
The columns method allows you to list out an array of data so that it is easily readable, much like the format of the ls command:
$data = [
'12 Monkeys',
'12 Years a Slave',
'A River Runs Through It',
'Across the Tracks',
'Babel',
'Being John Malkovich',
'Burn After Reading',
'By the Sea',
'Confessions of a Dangerous Mind',
'Contact',
'Cool World',
'Cutting Class',
'Fight Club',
'Fury',
'Happy Feet Two',
'Happy Together',
'Hunk',
'Inglourious Basterds',
'Interview with the Vampire',
'Johnny Suede',
'Kalifornia',
'Killing Them Softly',
'Legends of the Fall',
'Less Than Zero',
'Meet Joe Black',
'Megamind',
'Moneyball',
];
$climate->columns($data);
would result in:
12 Monkeys Contact Interview with the Vampire
12 Years a Slave Cool World Johnny Suede
A River Runs Through It Cutting Class Kalifornia
Across the Tracks Fight Club Killing Them Softly
Babel Fury Legends of the Fall
Being John Malkovich Happy Feet Two Less Than Zero
Burn After Reading Happy Together Meet Joe Black
By the Sea Hunk Megamind
Confessions of a Dangerous Mind Inglourious Basterds Moneyball
Column Count
Via a Paramater
You can specify the number of columns by passing in a second parameter:
$climate->columns($data, 4);
Via an Array of Arrays
$data = [
['Gary', 'Mary', 'Larry', 'Terry'],
[1.2, 4.3, 0.1, 3.0],
[6.6, 4.4, 5.5, 3.3],
[9.1, 8.2, 7.3, 6.4],
];
$climate->columns($data);
would result in:
Gary Mary Larry Terry
1.2 4.3 0.1 3
6.6 4.4 5.5 3.3
9.1 8.2 7.3 6.4
By default CLImate will try to figure out how the content best fits in your terminal.
