Fix kubectl table parser to handle multi-word column headers - #23
Merged
Conversation
Columns separated by a single space (e.g. "RELEASE STATUS") were incorrectly split into two columns, causing values like "Succeeded" to bleed across the fabricated boundary. Only 2+ consecutive spaces now mark a new column boundary.

Summary
Fixed the kubectl table output parser to correctly handle column headers with spaces in their names (e.g., "RELEASE STATUS"). Previously, the parser treated any space as a column boundary, which broke parsing of multi-word headers commonly found in kubectl CRD output.
Key Changes
parseColumnBoundaries()to distinguish between single spaces (part of a header word) and 2+ consecutive spaces (column separators)TestParseTableOutputMultiWordHeader()that validates:GetColumnIndex()Implementation Details
The fix modifies the state machine in
parseColumnBoundaries()to:spaceRunvariable)This allows headers like "RELEASE STATUS" to be treated as a single column while maintaining backward compatibility with standard kubectl output that uses multiple spaces as column separators.
