I am trying to make a table using pgfplotstable, and am having difficulties because the csv's are jagged. Most rows have 4 columns, as do the headers, but some rows are only 1 column and I would like these 1-cell rows to span the width of the table.



How do I either have pgfplotstable dynamically create multicolumns depending on the csv, or set every other row to be a multicolumn using data from the csv?



mwe (does not produce the proper layout):



documentclassarticle

beginfilecontentsdata.csv
ColumnHeader1, ColumnHeader2, ColumnHeader3, ColumnHeader4
item1, string1, string2, string3
some-text-goes-here

If you want to have multicolumns by default, with the exception of the head row and possibly other exceptions, you can hack "typeset cell" from the columns.



The default is:



ifnumpgfplotstablecol=pgfplotstablecols%
pgfkeyssetvalue/pgfplots/table/@cell content#1\%
else%
pgfkeyssetvalue/pgfplots/table/@cell content#1 &%
fi%


And you make it out of it:



pgfplotstableset
typeset cell/.code=%%
ifnumpgfplotstablerow=-1% Head Row (Exception)
ifnumpgfplotstablecol=pgfplotstablecols%
pgfkeyssetvalue/pgfplots/table/@cell content#1\%
else%
pgfkeyssetvalue/pgfplots/table/@cell content#1 &%
fi%
else
ifnumpgfplotstablerow=2% Another Exception Row ...
ifnumpgfplotstablecol=pgfplotstablecols%
pgfkeyssetvalue/pgfplots/table/@cell content#1\%
else%
pgfkeyssetvalue/pgfplots/table/@cell content#1 &%
fi%
else%
ifnumpgfplotstablecol=pgfplotstablecols% Standard

ifnumpgfplotstablecol=1%

        If you want to have multicolumns by default, with the exception of the head row and possibly other exceptions, you can hack "typeset cell" from the columns.



        The default is:



        ifnumpgfplotstablecol=pgfplotstablecols%
        pgfkeyssetvalue/pgfplots/table/@cell content#1\%
        else%
        pgfkeyssetvalue/pgfplots/table/@cell content#1 &%
        fi%


        And you make it out of it:



        pgfplotstableset
        typeset cell/.code=%%
        ifnumpgfplotstablerow=-1% Head Row (Exception)
        ifnumpgfplotstablecol=pgfplotstablecols%
        pgfkeyssetvalue/pgfplots/table/@cell content#1\%
        else%
        pgfkeyssetvalue/pgfplots/table/@cell content#1 &%
        fi%
        else
        ifnumpgfplotstablerow=2% Another Exception Row ...
        ifnumpgfplotstablecol=pgfplotstablecols%
        pgfkeyssetvalue/pgfplots/table/@cell content#1\%
        else%
        pgfkeyssetvalue/pgfplots/table/@cell content#1 &%
        fi%
        else%
        ifnumpgfplotstablecol=pgfplotstablecols% Standard
        pgfkeyssetvalue/pgfplots/table/@cell content\%
        else%
        ifnumpgfplotstablecol=1%
        pgfkeyssetvalue/pgfplots/table/@cell contentmulticolumn4c#1%
        else%
        pgfkeyssetvalue/pgfplots/table/@cell content%
        fifififi%
        ,%%



        enter image description here



        MWE:



        documentclass[margin=5pt,]standalone
        %documentclassarticle
        usepackagepgfplotstable,booktabs, filecontents
        pgfplotssetcompat=1.12

        beginfilecontents*jobname-data.csv
        A,B,C,D
        Some Text goes here in a multicolum., , ,
        string1 (bad), string2, string3, string4
        string1 (good), string2, string3, string4
        Some more Text goes here in a multicolum., , ,
        Some Text goes here in a multicolum., , ,
        endfilecontents*

        pgfplotstableset
        typeset cell/.code=%%
        ifnumpgfplotstablerow=-1% Head Row (Exception)
        ifnumpgfplotstablecol=pgfplotstablecols%
        pgfkeyssetvalue/pgfplots/table/@cell content#1\%
        else%
        pgfkeyssetvalue/pgfplots/table/@cell content#1 &%
        fi%
        else
        ifnumpgfplotstablerow=2% Another Exception Row ...
        ifnumpgfplotstablecol=pgfplotstablecols%
        pgfkeyssetvalue/pgfplots/table/@cell content#1\%
