Description
spdlog supports specifying text alignment in its pattern flags, see https://github.com/gabime/spdlog/wiki/3.-Custom-formatting#aligning:
%8lrequires right alignment and will expand toinfo;%-8lrequires left alignment and will expand toinfo;%=8lrequires center alignment and will expand toinfo.
Besides, an additional ! can be used to truncate the expanded result if it's too wide:
%3!l,%-3!l, and%=3!lwill expand toinf.
This feature can be neat sometimes and maybe we could also support this. We may follow the convention of format! and propose the following new pattern placeholder syntax:
placeholder := '{' NAME [ ':' format_spec ] '}'
format_spec := [ [fill] align ] [ ['.'] width ]
fill := CHAR
align := INT
width := INT
Some examples:
{level:8}and{level:<8}will expand toinfo(left alignment, pad with spaces);{level:-<8}will expand toinfo----(left alignment, pad with-);{level:>8}will expand toinfo(right alignment, pad with spaces);{level:->8}will expand to----info(right alignment, pad with-);{level:^8}will expand toinfo(center alignment, pad with spaces);{level:-^8}will expand to--info--(center alignment, pad with-);{level:.3}will expand toinf(left alignment, truncate field to 3 characters long).
