Color-code Pandas Dataframe dtypes in IPython

[cwerner]

Hi all. 👋

I was wondering if it's possible to color-code dtypes of a pandas dataframe when pretty printing in the ipython REPL?

For example: str in black, int in darkblue, float in dark green, categorical in purple, object (undefined) in gray?

I was thinking this might be helpful in data exploration using ipython - especially when the pandas read_csv magic to determine the most appropriate dtype fails again?

I'm very new to rich... Maybe this is already possible?

Cheers 🙏

I think, the highlighting of the dataframe is based on what the highlighter detects via regex:

I am not sure if the renderer (print, ipython html, whatever) receives the required datatype information.
