table attributes

[hudsondiegof]

Is there a way to customize tables with attributes? Keeping the table in markdown format, but referencing a custom style? Something like:

| Header 1 | Header 2 |
|----------|----------|
| Cell 1   | Cell 2   |
| Cell 3   | Cell 4   |
{:.fancy-table}

| Header 1 | Header 2 |
|----------|----------|
| Cell 1   | Cell 2   |
| Cell 3   | Cell 4   |
{:.simple-table}

{: .simple-table}
| Header 1 | Header 2 |
|----------|----------|
| Cell 1   | Cell 2   |
| Cell 3   | Cell 4   |

::: table-class-2
| Cabeçalho 1 | Cabeçalho 2 |
|-------------|-------------|
| Conteúdo   | Conteúdo   |
:::

My project has multiple styles of tables, i don't want to use html to maintain the readability of the .md file.

Unfortunately, attr_list won't work with tables. One possibility is using the pymdownx.blocks.html extension. That is if you find the syntax more attractive than raw HTML

The below example wraps the table in a div with the specified class:

import markdown

md = """
/// html | div.class
col1  | col2
----- | ----
cell1 | cell2
///
"""

print(markdown.markdown(md, extensions=['tables', 'pymdownx.blocks.html']))

<div class="class">
<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>col1</th>
<th>col2</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>cell1</td>
<td>cell2</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>

Yes, it's very close to what I need.

Thanks.

Output in mkdocs material:

I added these extensions to mkdocs.yml
