Table Image Generator 📋

Generate clean PNG table images from JSON data. Stop using ASCII tables — they look broken on Discord, Telegram, WhatsApp, and every messaging platform. This renders pixel-perfect images instead.

Features

🎨 Color Emoji — Full Twemoji rendering (✅🔥🏆 etc.)
🌙 Dark Mode — Discord-style dark theme
🔄 RTL Support — Auto-detects Hebrew/Arabic, reverses columns
📝 Word Wrapping — Long text wraps (max 3 lines, configurable)
📐 Smart Column Widths — Headers always visible, proportional distribution
⚡ Fast — Generates in <100ms, no Puppeteer needed
📁 Shell-Safe Input — --data-file avoids quoting issues

Installation

cd scripts && npm install

Usage

# Recommended: use --data-file to avoid shell quoting issues
cat > /tmp/data.json << 'EOF'
[{"Name":"Alice","Score":95},{"Name":"Bob","Score":87}]
EOF
node scripts/table.mjs --data-file /tmp/data.json --dark --output table.png

# Or pipe via stdin
echo '[{"Name":"Alice","Score":95}]' | node scripts/table.mjs --dark --output table.png

# Simple inline (works for basic data)
node scripts/table.mjs --data '[{"A":"1","B":"2"}]' --output table.png
