Rendered Markdown table ignores justify #8609
Description
Activity
Hey @AdrienHorgnies sorry for the slow response after the Christmas vacation. Some team changes and a large backlog to get through. Thanks for opening this issue.
Just to make sure I understand, what you're saying is that when we apply our markdown renderer, it is not handling the justification that the table header is including. For example, when running
gh issue view -R cli/cli 8609(meta!) we can see the difference between the browser and the CLI rendering:
Hi @williammartin ,
Yes, that's exactly it.
Makes sense. I'll check in with the folks at Charm to see whether they have any plans to support this in
glamour(our library that renders the markdown). This looks like the most relevant issue: charmbracelet/glamour#117This should be solved by charmbracelet/glamour#284!
Describe the feature or problem you’d like to solve
Mardown allows justifying a column to the left, center or right.
When view a Markdown file on the command line, the columns are always justified to the left.
Instead, it should abide by the justification set in the header of the table.
See the below table:
Assuming you're viewing this issue from a modern Browser,
you should see that the third column is right justified, thanks to the notation

gh, using for examplegh gist view IDwhereIDreferences a gist containing a markdown file, we get:Proposed solution
