ハッシュダンプを見つめなくて済むRuby gemを作成しました

I love Ruby. I love the console. I do not love this: { :name => "Alice" , :score => 100 , :active => true } { :name => "Bob" , :score => 42 , :active => false } When you have 20 of these in a row, good luck reading anything. So I built a tiny gem called typed_print. What does it do? One thing. Just one. It turns hashes into clean, aligned tables. require 'typed_print' data = [ { name: "Alice" , score: 100 , active: true }, { name: "Bob" , score: 42 , active: false } ] TypedPrint . print ( data ) Output Name Score Active ------ +------+------- Alice 100 true Bob 42 false That's it. No magic. No mental parsing. Why not just use pp or awesome_print? pp is fine, but still hard to scan. awesome_print is great, but sometimes you don't want colors, JSON support, or 10 dependencies. I wanted something that: Has zero required dependencies Only does tables Works everywhere (Rails, Rake tasks, plain Ruby scripts, even minimal Docker containers) What can you do with it? 1. Align columns TypedPrint . print ( data , align: { score: :right }) 2. Show only what you need TypedPrint . print ( data , only: [ :name , :score ]) 3. Custom headers TypedPrint . print ( data , headers: { name: "User" , score: "Points" }) 4. Markdown output (great for docs) TypedPrint . print ( data , format: :markdown ) Outputs a proper markdown table you can copy into GitHub READMEs. 5. Colors! (v0.3.0) TypedPrint . print ( data , color: true ) Or full control: TypedPrint . print ( data , colors: { name: :cyan , score: :green , active: :yellow }) Pastel is optional. If you don't have it, colors are ignored. No errors. Example with different data types mixed = [ { name: "Product A" , price: 29.99 , in_stock: true , notes: nil }, { name: "Product B" , price: 49.99 , in_stock: false , notes: "Limited" } ] TypedPrint . print ( mixed ) Output: Name Price In_stock Notes ---------- +-------+---------+------------- Product A 29.99 true Product B 49.99 false Limited edition It handles nil , booleans, numbers, and strings automatically. What about performance? It's lightweight. Zero dependencies means no hidden bloat. I've tested it with 10,000 rows. Still fast enough for CLI tools and debugging. For massive datasets? You probably shouldn't print them to the terminal anyway. Who is this for? Rails developers who debug in the console CLI tool authors who want clean output Anyone who logs hashes and wants them readable People who are tired of pp Links RubyGems: https://rubygems.org/gems/typed_print GitHub: https://github.com/enderahmetyurt/typed_print Documentation: In the README, nothing fancy What's next? I'm keeping it simple. No roadmap to become a bloated framework. But if you have an idea that fits the "zero-dependency, just tables" philosophy – open an issue. I shipped markdown support within hours of a user request (that was v0.2.0). Try it gem install typed_print That's it. You're done. If you find it useful, let me know. If you find a bug, also let me know. Thanks for reading 🙏 I love Ruby. I love the console.
