class SimpleTableParser(TableParser): (source)
Parse a simple table using `parse()`. Here's an example of a simple table:: ===== ===== col 1 col 2 ===== ===== 1 Second column of row 1. 2 Second column of row 2. Second line of paragraph. 3 - Second column of row 3. - Second item in bullet list (row 3, column 2). 4 is a span ------------ 5 ===== ===== Top and bottom borders use '=', column span underlines use '-', column separation is indicated with spaces. Passing the above table to the `parse()` method will result in the following data structure, whose interpretation is the same as for `GridTableParser`:: ([5, 25], [[(0, 0, 1, ['col 1']), (0, 0, 1, ['col 2'])]], [[(0, 0, 3, ['1']), (0, 0, 3, ['Second column of row 1.'])], [(0, 0, 4, ['2']), (0, 0, 4, ['Second column of row 2.', 'Second line of paragraph.'])], [(0, 0, 6, ['3']), (0, 0, 6, ['- Second column of row 3.', '', '- Second item in bullet', ' list (row 3, column 2).'])], [(0, 1, 10, ['4 is a span'])], [(0, 0, 12, ['5']), (0, 0, 12, [''])]])
Method | check |
Check for text in column margins and text overflow in the last column. Raise TableMarkupError if anything but whitespace is in column margins. Adjust the end value for the last column if there is text overflow. |
Method | init |

Method | parse |
Given a column span underline, return a list of (begin, end) pairs. |
Method | parse |
Given the text `lines` of a row, parse it and append to `self.table`. |
Method | parse |
First determine the column boundaries from the top border, then process rows. Each row may consist of multiple lines; accumulate lines until a row is complete. Call `self.parse_row` to finish the job. |

:
Method | find |
Look for a head/body row separator line; store the line index. |
Method | parse |
Analyze the text `block` and return a table data structure. |
Class Variable | double |
Padding character for East Asian double-width text. |

Given the text `lines` of a row, parse it and append to `self.table`. The row is parsed according to the current column spec (either `spanline` if provided or `self.columns`). For each column, extract text from each line, and check for text in column margins. Finally, adjust for insignificant whitespace.
