Register Custom Exporter

[mkusterm]

I have created a custom exporter and would like to use this for my scheduled reports on js 3.5

However i cannot figure out how to configure js to use my exporter.

Can anyone point me to documentation describing how to config js to use custom exporter?

 

thanks,

mike

Have a look in the user guide. There is Section 6.2 about adding exporters.

 

You will need to add a bean definition into the server for your new exporter.

I did the steps as described by sherman, and was able to register my exporter and run it from the gui only.

however, the scheduler still does not use my exporter.

( I'm attempting to replace the csv exporter with my own )

 

the applicationContext-report-scheduling.xml does not allow me to specify my own bean 

as does the viewReportBeans.xml file.

 

is there no way to inform the scheduler to use my custom exporter?

thanks

Have a look at applicationContext-report-scheduling.xml. Add your entry in here:

 

    <util:map id="jobExportParametersMap">
        <entry key="pdf" value-ref="jobPdfExportParameters"/>
        <entry key="xls" value-ref="jobXlsExportParameters"/>
        <entry key="csv" value-ref="jobCsvExportParameters"/>
        <entry key="myCustom" value-ref="jobCustomExportParameters"/>
    </util:map>
 

 

You will need to add a jobCustomExportParameters bean that inherits from your GUI exporter like:

    <bean id="jobCustomExportParameters" parent="customExportParameters">
        <!-- property name="abc" value=","/-->
    </bean>

Please Sherman can you point me to the actual documentation regarding adding custom exporters? I cannot find it, this post is almost 4 years old.

Thanks in advance
