Alignment is not working

[luzianscherrer]

I'm getting the following error when running the alignment sample from the README:

error TS2345: Argument of type '{ columnDefault: { width: number; }; columns: { alignment: string; }[]; }' is not assignable to parameter of type 'TableUserConfig'.
  Type '{ columnDefault: { width: number; }; columns: { alignment: string; }[]; }' is not assignable to type 'BaseUserConfig'.
    Types of property 'columns' are incompatible.
      Type '{ alignment: string; }[]' is not assignable to type 'Indexable<ColumnUserConfig>'.
        'number' index signatures are incompatible.
          Type '{ alignment: string; }' is not assignable to type 'ColumnUserConfig'.
            Type '{ alignment: string; }' is not assignable to type 'CellUserConfig'.
              Types of property 'alignment' are incompatible.
                Type 'string' is not assignable to type 'Alignment | undefined'.

                 console.log(table(data, config));

This is the code that I'm using:

const data = [
  ['0A', '0B', '0C', '0D 0E 0F'],
  ['1A', '1B', '1C', '1D 1E 1F'],
  ['2A', '2B', '2C', '2D 2E 2F'],
];

const config = {
  columnDefault: {
    width: 10,
  },
  columns: [
    { alignment: 'left' },
    { alignment: 'center' },
    { alignment: 'right' },
    { alignment: 'justify' }
  ],
};

console.log(table(data, config));

Versions used:

• ts-node: v10.9.1
• node: v16.17.0
• table: 6.8.0

The error is gone if you add TableUserConfig type for the config variable. I'm not sure if this is what we can fix. Do you have any suggestions?

Yep, I can confirm that. For me it's fine, but I think the examples should be updated accordingly.

That would be:

import { table, TableUserConfig } from 'table';

const data = [
  ['0A', '0B', '0C', '0D 0E 0F'],
  ['1A', '1B', '1C', '1D 1E 1F'],
  ['2A', '2B', '2C', '2D 2E 2F'],
];

const config: TableUserConfig = {
  columnDefault: {
    width: 10,
  },
  columns: [
    { alignment: 'left' },
    { alignment: 'center' },
    { alignment: 'right' },
    { alignment: 'justify' }
  ],
};

console.log(table(data, config));

Thanks. I will update it soon.
