# Console Rendering System Usage This skill provides instructions for using the struct tag-based console rendering system. ## Struct Tag Support Use the `console` struct tag to control rendering behavior: - **`header:"Name"`** - Sets the display name for fields (used in both structs and tables) - **`title:"Section Title"`** - Sets the title for nested structs, slices, or maps - **`format:"type"`** - Sets the formatting type for the field value - `format:number` - Formats integers as human-readable numbers (e.g., "1k", "1.2M") - `format:cost` - Formats floats as currency with $ prefix (e.g., "$1.234") - **`omitempty`** - Skips the field if it has a zero value - **`"-"`** - Always skips the field ## Example Usage ```go type Overview struct { RunID int64 `console:"header:Run ID"` Workflow string `console:"header:Workflow"` Status string `console:"header:Status"` Duration string `console:"header:Duration,omitempty"` } data := Overview{ RunID: 12345, Workflow: "test-workflow", Status: "completed", Duration: "5m30s", } // Simple rendering fmt.Print(console.RenderStruct(data)) // Output: // Run ID : 12345 // Workflow: test-workflow // Status : completed // Duration: 5m30s ``` ## Format Tag Examples ### Number Formatting ```go type Metrics struct { TokenUsage int `console:"header:Token Usage,format:number"` Errors int `console:"header:Errors"` } data := Metrics{ TokenUsage: 250000, Errors: 5, } // Renders as: // Token Usage: 250k // Errors : 5 ``` ### Cost Formatting ```go type Billing struct { Cost float64 `console:"header:Estimated Cost,format:cost"` } data := Billing{ Cost: 1.234, } // Renders as: // Estimated Cost: $1.234 ``` ## Rendering Behavior ### Structs Structs are rendered as key-value pairs with proper alignment. ### Slices Slices of structs are automatically rendered as tables: ```go type Job struct { Name string `console:"header:Name"` Status string `console:"header:Status"` Conclusion string `console:"header:Conclusion,omitempty"` } jobs := []Job{ {Name: "build", Status: "completed", Conclusion: "success"}, {Name: "test", Status: "in_progress", Conclusion: ""}, } fmt.Print(console.RenderStruct(jobs)) ``` Renders as: ``` Name | Status | Conclusion ----- | ----------- | ---------- build | completed | success test | in_progress | - ``` ### Maps Maps are rendered as markdown-style headers with key-value pairs. ### Special Type Handling #### time.Time `time.Time` fields are automatically formatted as `"2006-01-02 15:04:05"`. Zero time values are considered empty when used with `omitempty`. #### Unexported Fields The rendering system safely handles unexported struct fields by checking `CanInterface()` before attempting to access field values. --- > Converted and distributed by [TomeVault](https://tomevault.io/claim/github) — claim your Tome and manage your conversions. <!-- tomevault:4.0:skill_md:2026-04-11 -->
