NAME
    Data::Record::Serialize::Encode::table - encode records as a formatted
    table and output it

VERSION
    version 0.02

SYNOPSIS
        use Data::Record::Serialize;
        my $s = Data::Record::Serialize->new( encode => 'table', ... );
        $s->send( \%record );

DESCRIPTION
    Data::Record::Serialize::Encode::table encodes records into table form
    using Term::Table.

    It performs both the Data::Record::Serialize::Role::Encode and
    Data::Record::Serialize::Role::Sink roles.

    Do not construct this directly; use "new" in Data::Record::Serialize.
    The following named parameters may be passed to it:

    output
        This parameter is required. One of the following:

        *   The name of an output file (which will be created). If it is the
            string "-", output will be written to the standard output
            stream. Must not be the empty string.

        *   a reference to a scalar to which the records will be written.

        *   a GLOB (i.e. "\*STDOUT"), or a reference to an object which
            derives from IO::Handle (e.g. IO::File, FileHandle, etc.). These
            will *not* be closed upon destruction of the serializer or when
            the "close" method is called.

    create_output_dir => *Boolean*
        If *true*, the directory which will contain the output file is
        created. Defaults to *false*.

    The following parameters are passed as-is to "new" in Term::Table.

    allow_overflow
    auto_columns
    collapse
    mark_tail
    max_width
    no_collapse
    pad
    sanitize
    show_header
