Constructor Detail

• HTMLTableWriter

  public HTMLTableWriter()

  Constructs a new writer with default characteristics.

• HTMLTableWriter

  public HTMLTableWriter​(boolean standalone,
                         boolean useRowGroups)

  Constructs a new writer indicating whether it will produce complete or partial HTML documents.

Method Detail

• setStandalone

  public void setStandalone​(boolean standalone)

  Sets whether output tables should be complete HTML documents.

  Parameters:

  standalone - true if the output document should be a complete HTML document

• isStandalone

  public boolean isStandalone()

  Indicates whether output tables will be complete HTML documents.

  Returns:

  true if the output documents will be complete HTML docs

• getFormatName

  public java.lang.String getFormatName()

  Description copied from interface: StarTableWriter
  Gives the name of the format which is written by this writer. Matching against this string may be used by callers to identify or select this writer from a list.

  Specified by:

  getFormatName in interface StarTableWriter

  Returns:

  a short string identifying the output format of this writer

• getMimeType

  public java.lang.String getMimeType()

  Description copied from interface: StarTableWriter
  Returns a string suitable for use as the value of a MIME Content-Type header. If no suitable MIME type is available or known, one of "application/octet-stream" (for binary formats) or "text/plain" for ASCII ones) is recommended.

  Specified by:

  getMimeType in interface StarTableWriter

  Returns:

  MIME content type

• looksLikeFile

  public boolean looksLikeFile​(java.lang.String location)

  Description copied from interface: StarTableWriter
  Indicates whether the destination is of a familiar form for this kind of writer. This may be used to guess what kind of format a table should be written in. Implementations should return true for values of location which look like the normal form for their output format, for instance one with the usual file extension.

  Specified by:

  looksLikeFile in interface StarTableWriter

  Parameters:

  location - the location name (probably filename)

  Returns:

  true iff it looks like a file this writer would normally write

• writeStarTable

  public void writeStarTable​(StarTable table,
                             java.io.OutputStream out)
                      throws java.io.IOException

  Description copied from interface: StarTableWriter
  Writes a StarTable object to a given output stream. The implementation can assume that out is suitable for direct writing (for instance it should not normally wrap it in a BufferedOutputStream), and should not close it at the end of the call.

  Not all table writers are capable of writing to a stream; an implementation may throw a TableFormatException to indicate that it cannot do so.

  Specified by:

  writeStarTable in interface StarTableWriter

  Parameters:

  table - the table to write

  out - the output stream to which startab should be written

  Throws:

  TableFormatException - if this table cannot be written to a stream

  java.io.IOException - if there is some I/O error

• writeStarTables

  public void writeStarTables​(TableSequence tableSeq,
                              java.io.OutputStream out)
                       throws java.io.IOException

  Description copied from interface: MultiStarTableWriter
  Writes an array of StarTable objects to a given output stream. The implementation can assume that the stream is suitable for direct writing (for instance it should not normally wrap it in a BufferedOutputStream), and should not close it at the end of the call.

  Specified by:

  writeStarTables in interface MultiStarTableWriter

  Parameters:

  tableSeq - sequence of tables to write

  out - destination stream

  Throws:

  java.io.IOException

• writeStarTables

  public void writeStarTables​(TableSequence tableSeq,
                              java.lang.String location,
                              StarTableOutput sto)
                       throws java.io.IOException

  Description copied from interface: MultiStarTableWriter
  Writes an array of StarTable objects to a given location. Implementations are free to interpret the location argument in any way appropriate for them. Typically however the location will simply be used to get an output stream (for instance interpreting it as a filename). In this case the sto argument should normally be used to turn location into a stream.

  Specified by:

  writeStarTables in interface MultiStarTableWriter

  Parameters:

  tableSeq - sequence of tables to write

  location - destination for tables

  sto - StarTableOutput instance

  Throws:

  java.io.IOException

• getStarTableWriters

  public static StarTableWriter[] getStarTableWriters()

  Returns a selection of useful HTMLTableWriters.

  Returns:

  array containing one standalone and one TABLE-only writer

• printHeader

  protected void printHeader​(java.io.OutputStream ostrm,
                             StarTable table)
                      throws java.io.IOException

  For standalone output, this method is invoked to output any text preceding the <TABLE> start tag. May be overridden to modify the form of output documents.

  Parameters:

  ostrm - output stream

  table - table for which header is required; may be null for multi-table output

  Throws:

  java.io.IOException

• printFooter

  protected void printFooter​(java.io.OutputStream ostrm)
                      throws java.io.IOException

  For standalone output, this method is invoked to output any text following the </TABLE> end tag. May be overridden to modify the form of output documents.

  Parameters:

  ostrm - output stream

  Throws:

  java.io.IOException

• isUrl

  protected boolean isUrl​(java.lang.String txt)

  Determines whether a string is apparently a URL. If this returns true, it is appropriate to format it within an HTML "a" element.

  Parameters:

  txt - string to test

  Returns:

  true iff txt looks like a URL
