- Here we use a sample PostgreSQL database and an instance for the report server, with security disabled
- Database is based on this project
- Sample reports are saved to
./reports
, which is mounted to the report server - The root directory can also be opened as a jasper studio workspace, and reports directory will be imported as a project.
- So, you can open this repo in jasper studio to fiddle with sample reports if you want
- The project will have a data-soruce for the local sample database called
local-postgres
, this is what all the reports use.
- To run the environment run
docker-compose up
- To stop the environment and clean up
docker-compose down --rmi local
- A simple report that shows list of movies from the database
- Doesn't required any other resources: fonts, sub-reports, images, etc
curl -o movies.pdf http://localhost:8080/report/ex1/movies.pdf
- Simple report but with custom fonts and static image
curl -o movies.pdf http://localhost:8080/report/ex2/movies.pdf
- A report book that have two parts, the previous movies report and a summary page.
- Note that in the case of sub-reports,
.jasper
files must be provided and referenced in the main report. - Sub-reports
.jrxml
files are provided here for reference only. - Jasper studio gives the feature to add sub-reports as
.jrxml
files, and compiles them on the spot. But this is not the normal case in applications, AFAIK, the library doesn't provide this out-of-the-box. - The report server currently doesn't auto compile sub-reports
.jrxml
files. - parameter
JR_force-compile=true
directs the server to compile sub-reports to generate.jasper
files for them if needed.
curl -o movie_book.pdf http://localhost:8080/report/ex3/movie_book.pdf?JR_force-compile=true
