Is it possible to embed iReports ?

Posted on October 16, 2013 at 6:46am

Hi everyone. It's maybe a really stupid question.

I am developping a platform that will be used by several users (maybe a thousand), and they need to have access to a reporting module.

I though, why not iReport, it's powerful and the tool is already made. But then, I wonder, is it possible to embed iReport into a platform, so users can access like a SaaS ?

Or is it necessary to have it installed on your desktop ? If it's the case, then I guess I should use JasperReports Library, but I'll have to develop code to make it work I guess.

 

Thanks by advance, sorry for the newbie question.

Cheers, Vince

What you are describing is the Ad Hoc View feature of the JasperReports Server Pro.

Hey, thanks for fast feedback.

Damn, I guess this Ad Hoc Feature belongs to the entreprise version of JasperReports :( (I need something free) ... And as far as I read for the moment, the "map component" that exists in iReport does not exist here.

Ok Ill look for further informations through this wiki to find what fullfill my needs.

Thanks.

Edit : I forgot to mention that one of my need, is to allow the user to build fast map on his report, like the "map component" of iReport does. I'll keep on digging the wiki of Jaspers Community, maybe Ill find my needs.

Thanks anyway.
