NAME

       LaTeX::Table::Types::TypeI - Interface for LaTeX table types.

DESCRIPTION

       This is the type interface (or Moose role), that all type objects must use.  LaTeX::Table
       delegates the LaTeX code generation to type objects. It stores all information we have in
       easy to use "TEMPLATE VARIABLES". LaTeX::Table ships with very flexible templates, but it
       is possible to use the template variables defined here to build custom templates.

INTERFACE

       "generate_latex_code"

TEMPLATE VARIABLES

       Most options are accessible here:

       "CENTER, LEFT, RIGHT"
           Example:

             [% IF CENTER %]\centering
             [% END %]

       "ENVIRONMENT, STAR, POSITION, SIDEWAYS"
           These options for floating environments are typically used like:

             [% IF ENVIRONMENT %]\begin{[% ENVIRONMENT %][% IF STAR %]*[% END %]}[% IF POSITION %][[% POSITION %]][% END %]
             ...
             [% END %]
             # the tabular environment here
             ...
             [% IF ENVIRONMENT %] ...
             \end{[% ENVIRONMENT %][% IF STAR %]*[% END %]}[% END %]

       "CAPTION_TOP, CAPTION_CMD, SHORTCAPTION, CAPTION, CONTINUED, CONTINUEDMSG"
           The variables to build the caption command. Note that there is NO template for the
           "maincaption" option. "CAPTION" already includes this maincaption if specified.

       "LABEL"
           The label:

            [% IF LABEL %]\label{[% LABEL %]}[% END %]

       "TABULAR_ENVIRONMENT, WIDTH, COLDEF"
           These three options define the tabular environment:

             \begin{[% TABULAR_ENVIRONMENT %]}[% IF WIDTH %]{[% WIDTH %]}[% END %]{[% COLDEF %]}

       "FONTFAMILY, FONTSIZE"
           Example:

             [% IF FONTSIZE %]\[% FONTSIZE %]
             [% END %][% IF FONTFAMILY %]\[% FONTFAMILY %]family
             [% END %]

       "TABLEHEADMSG, TABLETAIL, TABLELASTTAIL, XENTRYSTRETCH"
           For the multi-page tables.

       "MAXWIDTH, FOOTTABLE"
           Currently only used by LaTeX::Table::Types::Ctable.

       In addition, some variables already contain formatted LaTeX code:

       "HEADER_CODE"
           The formatted header:

             \toprule
             \multicolumn{2}{c}{Item} &             \\
             \cmidrule(r){1-2}
             Animal                   & Description & Price \\
             \midrule

       "DATA_CODE"
           The formatted data:

             Gnat      & per gram & 13.65 \\
                       & each     & 0.01  \\
             Gnu       & stuffed  & 92.59 \\
             Emu       & stuffed  & 33.33 \\
             Armadillo & frozen   & 8.99  \\
             \bottomrule

       "RESIZEBOX_BEGIN_CODE, RESIZEBOX_END_CODE"
           Everything between these two template variables is resized according the "resizebox"
           option.

       "EXTRA_ROW_HEIGHT_CODE, DEFINE_COLORS_CODE, RULES_COLOR_GLOBAL_CODE,
       RULES_WIDTH_GLOBAL_CODE"
           Specified by the theme. "EXTRA_ROW_HEIGHT_CODE" will contain the corresponding LaTeX
           extrarowheight command, e.g for '1pt':

               \setlength{\extrarowheight}{1pt}

           Otherwise it will contain the empty string. The other template variables will contain
           the command specified by the corresponding theme option.

       Finally, some variables allow access to internal "LaTeX::Table" variables:

       "LT_NUM_COLUMNS"
           Contains the number of columns of the table.

       "LT_BOTTOM_RULE_CODE"
           Code that draws the rules at the bottom of the table according the theme options.
