How does DataTables get created in the parser

[Anders]

Hello,

Trying to write a custom engine/reporter I have found how to pars out the GherkinDocument but, if there exist, I need to pars out the corresponding DataTable in order to get this information. I have searched the code but cant find where the DataTable are parsed. 

Are there any examples/test that parses a feature/Scenario with a Datatable where I can see how this is done and how it can be accessed.

Here is a feature file that uses data tables

https://github.com/cucumber/cucumber/blob/master/gherkin/testdata/good/datatables.feature

and the corresponding AST for the GherkinDocument that the parser will generate

https://github.com/cucumber/cucumber/blob/master/gherkin/testdata/good/datatables.feature.ast.ndjson

Hi,

Thanks for the example ast a bit more clear.

Follow up question, from the GherkinDocument, is there a way that I can get an instance of the DataTable class from a given step instance?

Quick look at the code I see that the constructor takes  a List<DataTableRow> and a TableConverter, is there a way from the GherkinDocument to asses the DataTableRows of the table?

What Cucumber/Gherkin build is this for? Java? JavaScript? Ruby?

And what release?
