788 This creates a report object, sets a few columns, adds some data and generates a standard report.
789 Sorting of columns will be alphabetic, and options will be set to their defaults.
790 The report will be printed including table headers, html headers and http headers.
794 Imagine the following scenario:
795 There's a simple form, which loads some data from the database, and needs to print it out. You write a template for it.
796 Then there may be more than one line. You add a loop in the template.
797 Then there are some options made by the user, such as hidden columns. You add more to the template.
798 Then it lacks usability. You want it to be able to sort the data. You add code for that.
799 Then there are too many results, you need pagination, you want to print or export that data..... and so on.
801 The ReportGenerator class was designed because this exact scenario happened about half a dozen times in Lx-Office.
802 It's purpose is to manage all those formating, culling, sorting, and templating.
803 Which makes it almost as complicated to use as doing the work for yourself.
809 =item new \%myconfig,$form,%options
811 Creates a new ReportGenerator object, sets all given options, and returns it.
813 =item set_columns %columns
815 Sets the columns available to this report.
817 =item set_column_order @columns
819 Sets the order of columns. Any columns not present here are appended in alphabetic order.
821 =item set_sort_indicator $column,$direction
823 Sets sorting ot the table by specifying a column and a direction, where the direction will be evaluated to ascending if true.
824 Note that this is only for displaying. The data has to be presented already sorted.
826 =item add_data \@data
828 =item add_data \%data
830 Adds data to the report. A given hash_ref is interpreted as a single line of data, every array_ref as a collection of lines.
831 Every line will be expected to be in a kay => value format. Note that the rows have to be already sorted.
832 ReportGenerator does only colum sorting on its own, and provides links to sorting and visual cue as to which column was sorted by.
836 Adds a separator line to the report.
838 =item add_control \%data
840 Adds a control element to the data. Control elements are an experimental feature to add functionality to a report the regular data cannot.
841 Every control element needs to set IS_CONTROL_DATA, in order to be recongnized by the template.
842 Currently the only control element is a colspan element, which can be used as a mini header further down the report.
846 Deletes all data filled into the report, but keeps options set.
848 =item set_options %options
850 Sets options. For an incomplete list of options, see section configuration.
852 =item set_options_from_form
854 Tries to import options from the $form object given at creation
856 =item set_export_options $next_sub,@variable_list
858 Sets next_sub and additional variables needed for export.
860 =item get_attachment_basename
862 Returns the set attachment_basename option, or 'report' if nothing was set. See configuration for the option.
864 =item generate_with_headers
866 Parses the report, adds headers and prints it out. Headers depend on the option 'output_format',
867 for example 'HTML' will add proper table headers, html headers and http headers. See configuration for this option.
869 =item get_visible_columns $format
871 Returns a list of columns that will be visible in the report after considering all options or match the given format.
873 =item html_format $value
875 Escapes HTML characters in $value and substitutes newlines with '<br>'. Returns the escaped $value.
877 =item prepare_html_content $column,$name,@column_headers
879 Parses the data, and sets internal data needed for certain output format. Must be called once before the template is invoked.
880 Should not be called extrenally, since all render and generate functions invoke it anyway.
882 =item generate_html_content
884 The html generation function. Is invoked by generate_with_headers.
886 =item generate_pdf_content
888 The PDF generation function. It is invoked by generate_with_headers and renders the PDF with the PDF::API2 library.
890 =item generate_csv_content
892 The CSV generation function. Uses XS_CSV to parse the information into csv.
898 These are known options and their defaults. Options for pdf export and csv export need to be set as a hashref inside the export option.
