#36235 — How to modify this script?

http://www.tuxradar.com/content/save-time-gedit-snippets:

To convert tab-separated text lines into a HTML-table:

$<
lines = $GEDIT_SELECTED_TEXT.split("\n");
output = '<table\>\n';

for line in lines:
	output += '<tr\>';
	
	columns = line.split("\t");
	for item in columns:
		output += '<td\>' + item + '</td\> '
	
	output += '</tr\>\n';

output += '</table\>';
return output
 >

I would like to make a small modification (I'm not a programmer myself). 
Let's say I have these lines:

Price table
1 <tab> Green apple <tab> $1
5 <tab> Green apples <tab> $4
10 <tab> Green apples <tab> $7

Since there's only one "field" in the first line, I want this output:

<tr><td colspan="3">Price table</td></tr>

- insted of

<tr><td>Price table</td></tr>

How to? Thank you i advance.

It's actually quite simple, as long as you don't mind the junk of
colspan="1" on all the other cells. Just replace the innermost loop
with:

        for item in columns:
                output += '<td colspan="' + (4-len(columns)) + '"\>' +
item + '</td\> '

Untested, but it ought to work - as long as you never have _more_
cells in the line.

I do, but I would like to test anyway ;-)

"innermost"? I have replaced this with yours, but all the marked text 
are deleted:

for item in columns:
		output += '<td\>' + item + '</td\> '

Here's the full code, with my change:

$<
lines = $GEDIT_SELECTED_TEXT.split("\n");
output = '<table\>\n';

for line in lines:
        output += '<tr\>';

        columns = line.split("\t");
        for item in columns:
                output += '<td colspan="' + (4-len(columns)) + '"\>' +
item + '</td\> '

        output += '</tr\>\n';

output += '</table\>';
return output
>

It's only one line of code that needs to be changed. Python loops (and
other control structures) are defined by indentation, so the innermost
loop is the one that starts furthest to the right.

I'm sorry to bother you, Chris, but applying the snippet with your code 
in Gedit still just deletes the marked, tab-separated text in the editor.

Ah, whoops. That would be because I had a bug in the code (that's why
I commented that it was untested). Sorry about that! Here's a fixed
version:

$<
lines = $GEDIT_SELECTED_TEXT.split("\n");
output = '<table\>\n';

for line in lines:
        output += '<tr\>';

        columns = line.split("\t");
        for item in columns:
                output += '<td colspan="' + str(4-len(columns)) +
'"\>' + item + '</td\> '

        output += '</tr\>\n';

output += '</table\>';
return output
>


Note that it's a single line:

output += '<td colspan="' + str(4-len(columns)) + '"\>' + item + '</td\> '

If your newsreader (or my poster) wraps it, you'll need to unwrap that
line, otherwise you'll get an IndentError.

That version should work.

Ahhh, I did'nt realize that. Now it works :-)

It certainly does. I'll keep it and use it until at better solution is 
found. In the meantime I can just remove any unnecessary "colspan="1" 
with a macro.

Thanks for your help.

Excellent! You'll find that Subimal's solution doesn't have those
colspan="1" lines, so take your pick as to which way you want to go.

That would be simple:

Replace

output += '<td colspan="' + str(4-len(columns)) + '"\>' + item +
'</td\> '

with

if len(columns) >= 3:
     output += '<td\>'
else:
     output += '<td colspan="' + str(4-len(columns)) + '"\>'
output += item + '</td\> '

(untested as well; keep the indentation in mind!)

Thanks, Thomas, but ...

The script stops right bofore
= 3:
     output += '<td\>'

This, and the rest of the script code is put out as the result, not my test.

if len(columns) != 3:
   colspan = 3 - len(columns) + 1
   output += '<td colspan=%s>' % (colspan) + item + '</td> '

I did not test. Use with caution.

I've tried to put it in several different places in the script, but with 
no luck; remember that I'm not experienced, so please tell me exactly 
where it's surposed to be inserted. Could you eventually show the 
complete modified script?

Well, I'm not answering your question since I am rewriting the script, because I prefer it this way :)

def addline(line):
    return "<tr>%s</tr>\n" % line

def addcolumn(item,nb_columns):
    if nb_columns != 3:
        return "<td colspan='%s'>%s</td>" % (3 - nb_columns + 1, item)
    return "<td>%s</td>" % item

output = "<table>\n"
for line in file("data.txt"):
    items = line.strip().split("\t")
    columns = ""
    for item in items :
        columns += addcolumn(item,len(items))
    output  += addline(columns)


output += "</table>"
print output


printed

>>> <table>
<tr><td colspan='3'>Price table</td></tr>
<tr><td>1 </td><td> Green apple </td><td> $1</td></tr>
<tr><td>5 </td><td> Green apples </td><td> $4</td></tr>
<tr><td>10 </td><td> Green apples </td><td> $7</td></tr>

Aha, so you tested it yourself?

When running this in Gedit on four lines of tab-separated text the 
output is:

%s</tr>\n" % line

def addcolumn(item,nb_columns):
     if nb_columns != 3:
         return "<td colspan='%s'>%s</td>" % (3 - nb_columns + 1, item)
     return "<td>%s</td>" % item

output = "<table>\n"
for line in file("data.txt"):
     items = line.strip().split("\t")
     columns = ""
     for item in items :
         columns += addcolumn(item,len(items))
     output  += addline(columns)

I'm not confident this would run on gedit. It works on a python interpreter if you have a file named data.txt in the same directory containing your sample data.

It surely has to do with how gedit works then, because the "$" sign isn't used in python, this business should be a gedit convention. And sorry, I can't help on that, I'm not a user of gedit myself. Fortunately others have answered and I beleive one of the solutions worked for you.

Aha, so you tested it yourself?

When running this in Gedit on four lines of tab-separated text the output is:

%s</tr>\n" % line

def addcolumn(item,nb_columns):
    if nb_columns != 3:
        return "<td colspan='%s'>%s</td>" % (3 - nb_columns + 1, item)
    return "<td>%s</td>" % item

output = "<table>\n"
for line in file("data.txt"):
    items = line.strip().split("\t")
    columns = ""
    for item in items :
        columns += addcolumn(item,len(items))
    output  += addline(columns)


output += "</table>"
print output

It does not seem to be the case :-(

Thank you for trying to help.

Well tell me how do you use this script in gedit, are you using it as a plugin ? are you putting this code somewhere ? I'll try to do the same on my side and try to understand how it works.

"Snippets" is a plugin, yes. It's included in the .app for Mac (v. 
2.30.2), but not activated af default.

Open "Tools" in the menu line and click "Manage snippets...". Here you 
can organize, add and edit snippets of texts. The feature olså has the 
ability to work with Python code inside the snippet content.

I am re-building a 15 years old homepage. The HTML code is handmade over 
the years and very varying, buggy etc., så I would like to renew the 
HTML for the table structure in an easy way.

Example: On this page: http://www.danacord.dk/frmsets/records/732-r.html 
I mark the content of the CD, copy it to the clipboard and paste it into 
the editing area in Gedit. cmd-a marks it all again and then I "run" the 
snippet upon the text, either using my self-defined hotkey or by pushing 
ctrl+space and select my snippet from a list.

The copied text is inserted as clean text without any HTML. The 
Python-snippet we are discussing recognizes tabs to separate the columns 
and adds the apprpriate HTML-code to it.

I figrued it out. Copy/paste exactly these lines in the snippets tool. You can bind it to a key as you may know, I bound it to Ctrl-E. So paste it in a new snippet (keep the original in a safe place), bind to a key, select the text you want to html-tableize and hit the key binding. In my case it worked.

$<
def addline(line):
    return "<tr\>%s</tr\>\n" % line

def addcolumn(item,nb_columns):
    if nb_columns != 3:
        return "<td colspan='%s'\>%s</td\>" % (3 - nb_columns + 1, item)
    return "<td\>%s</td\>" % item

output = "<table\>\n"
for line in """$GEDIT_SELECTED_TEXT""".split("\n"):
    items = line.strip().split("\t")
    columns = ""
    for item in items :
        columns += addcolumn(item,len(items))
    output  += addline(columns)


output += "</table\>"
return output>


Here's a screenshit, sorry screenshot :) http://h.dropcanvas.com/521xc/gedit.png


The python support in gedit snippets is very poor when it comes to debugging because there are traceback printed in the console, that means gedit actually breaks without even noticing the user about what went wrong (ex. : your snippet is malformed or has errors). I had to debug it using pdb.set_trace directly inside its source code to figure out what was wrong in the snippet.

If this doesn't work for you, please let me know.

Spooky behavior. Yes, the green-apple-example also works for me with 
your new script, BUT ...!

Try to copy the table content on this page:
http://www.danacord.dk/frmsets/records/732-r.html
which is a realistic scenario. That's whar I am doing these days.

Pasting it into Gedit and running the snippet blanks the edit area (on 
MY Mac at least).

And yes: I have pasted your code excatly and I've double-checked for 
linewraps. Everything is okay.

For your cenvenience I have put borders on the table online (see link 
above). You may ommit the rows after track 14. Not that it makes any 
differerence, but that block is surposed to be formatted differerent. I 
do that manually afterwards ... if not ... ;-)
