Enhancement - Add Color coded conditional formatting for rows in tables

[PaulDevenney]

A prime example, we have log entries results in a table

DEBUG   Initializing Raven DocumentStore    Local
FATAL   An unknown error occured initializing the Profiles...   Local   

We would like to be able to either

a) put a coloured Bar to the left hand side of the row, representing severity (DEBUG green, FATAL dark red, etc)
b) alternatively background colour the entire row (I think the solid bar to the left of a row is more appealing

It would be important to be able to choose the colour to use for each condition

I think your proposition is a duplicate of #335 and of #617

Think about making a research before asking new features ;)

@Aldian-fr I'm not sure what @PaulDevenney needs exactly but I think it's something different.

There seems to be a need for a simple conditional formatting, mostly based on a field value such as "severity". The main goal would be to color code the weight of an event like many log consoles are doing.

I would really like to see this feature added.

As this would require lots of custom logic I'd say it would be best implemented using the upcoming field formatter feature in beta 4. It wouldn't color the entire row, but you could color the text in the cell.

@rashidkpc color formatting is not included in field formatting feature, would you mind reopening this ticket ?

[PhaedrusTheGreek]

@rashidkpc re-opening as per discussions... It would be cool if we could match on regex and then format the cell or the text in some custom way.

I would like to see this feature implemented - so here is another vote for it!

Did I miss that discussion? A color formatter already exists: https://github.com/elastic/kibana/blob/4cce8e878fe0f2aa7a59ea2000d9bdb018384297/docs/color-formatter.asciidoc

Feel free to open a new ticket if that doesn't cover your case, but please do not reopen this ticket.

Right - that nice feature is available only for Numeric fields... wishing for that to be available on other types of fields also.

[PhaedrusTheGreek]

@rashidkpc I spoke with Jon earlier about reopening this ticket. This ticket doesn't cover String fields, but the description is specific to String fields.

It doesn't cover string fields,
Feel free to open a new ticket if that doesn't cover your case, but please do not reopen this ticket.
Why a new ticket, there are probably over 10 tickets regarding this feature already.
