tab NSE Library — Nmap Scripting Engine documentation (original) (raw)
Arrange output into tables.
This module provides NSE scripts with a way to output structured tables similar to what NmapOutputTable.cc provides.
Example usage:
local t = tab.new() tab.add(t, 1, 'A1') tab.add(t, 2, 'A2') tab.nextrow(t) tab.add(t, 1, 'BBBBBBBBB1') tab.add(t, 2, 'BBB2') tab.nextrow(t) tab.addrow(t, 'C1', 'C2') tab.dump(t)
tab.add works on the bottom-most row untiltab.nextrow is called. Think of tab.nextrow as typing Enter at the end of a line. tab.addrow adds a whole row at a time and calls tab.nextrow automatically.
