Advanced Running Reports Using the On-Demand API

You can specify report information, result format information, and the path for the report result file, when you run a report in Advanced mode using the on-demand report execution API. This topic describes the demo codes for running a report in the PDF format and for exporting the RST file to HTML.

Demo Code of Running a Report in the PDF Format Directly

//Set report properties
Properties props = new Properties();

//Set result type as .pdf format.
props.put(APIConst.TAG_RESULT_TYPE, String.valueOf(APIConst.PDF)); 

//Set result file location. The value of TAG_LOCATION_TO_SERVER_RESOURCE_PATH is 0, 
//and the value of TAG_LOCATION_TO_SERVER_DISK_REAL_PATH is 1.
 
//The default value of TAG_RESULT_LOCATION_TYPE is 1. 

//props.put(APIConst.TAG_RESULT_LOCATION_TYPE, String.valueOf(APIConst.TAG_LOCATION_TO_SERVER_RESOURCE_PATH)); 
//props.put(APIConst.TAG_RESULT_LOCATION, "/"); //props.put(APIConst.TAG_RESULT_LOCATION, "/"); 

props.put(APIConst.TAG_RESULT_LOCATION_TYPE, String.valueOf(APIConst.TAG_LOCATION_TO_SERVER_DISK_REAL_PATH));
props.put(APIConst.TAG_RESULT_LOCATION, "C:\\"); 
System.out.println("========to pdf=" + props);
tempResult = rptServer.runReport(user, catalog, rptName, props);

Demo Code of Exporting the RST File to HTML

//Set task properties
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put(APIConst.TAG_RESULT_TYPE, String.valueOf(APIConst.RST));
 
//Set result file location.
props.put(APIConst.TAG_RESULT_LOCATION_TYPE, "0"); 
props.put(APIConst.TAG_RESULT_LOCATION, "/");
System.out.println("========to pdf=" + props); 

String tempResult = server.runReport("admin", catalog, rptName, props);
System.out.println("========tempResult="+tempResult); 

//Export to HTML
props.put(APIConst.TAG_HTML, "Crosstab");
 
props.put(APIConst.TAG_HTML_DIR, "/");
props.put(APIConst.TAG_HTML_DIR_TYPE, String.valueOf(APIConst.TAG_LOCATION_TO_SERVER_RESOURCE_PATH));
 
System.out.println("\n========exportResult="+props);
ExportedFileList fileList = server.exportResult("admin", tempResult, props);
System.out.println("\n========fileList.getHTMLFilenameList()="+fileList.getHTMLFilenameList());
