Available export formatsStartBatchCommand(FileName: String; FormatTag: String);
FileName. Name of the file, to which export is executed.
FormatTag. Format of the file, in which export is executed.
The StartBatchCommand method starts batch export of dashboards of the specified format.
Batch export enables the user to export several dashboards to one file.
To execute batch export:
Call the StartBatchCommand method.
Set the exported dashboard in the IAdhocReportExporter.AdhocReport property.
Call the IAdhocReportExporter.ExportToFile method inherited from IExporter.ExportToFile.
Repeat steps 2 and 3 as long as all required dashboards are exported.
Call the IAdhocReportExporter.FinishBatchCommand method.
Executing the example requires a form containing the MetabaseOpenDialog component with the MetabaseOpenDialog1 identifier.
Add a link to the Adhoc system assembly.
Sub UserProc;
Var
Filter: IMetabaseDialogClassFilter;
Objects: IMetabaseObjectDescriptorList;
Exp: AdhocReportExporter;
i, Count: integer;
id: String;
Begin
MetabaseOpenDialog1.MultiSelect := True;
// Create filter to open only dashboards
Filter := New MetabaseDialogClassFilter.Create;
Filter.Description := "Dashboards";
Filter.ObjectClass := MetabaseObjectClass.KE_ADHOC_REPORT;
MetabaseOpenDialog1.Filters.AddFilter(Filter);
// Call dashboard open box
If MetabaseOpenDialog1.Execute(Self) Then
Objects := MetabaseOpenDialog1.Objects;
Count := Objects.Count;
// Start of batch export of selected dashboards in PDF format
Exp := New AdhocReportExporter.Create;
Exp.StartBatchCommand("C:\Dashboards.pdf", "PDF");
For i := 0 To Count - 1 Do
id := Objects.Item(i).Id;
Exp.AdhocReport := MetabaseClass.Active.ItemById(id).Bind As IAdhocReport;
Exp.ExportToFile("", "PDF");
Debug.WriteLine("Report '" + Objects.Item(i).Name + "' is exported");
End For;
// End of batch export of dashboards
Exp.FinishBatchCommand;
End If;
End Sub UserProc;
After executing the example the dialog box to select dashboards opens. The selected dashboards will be exported to the C:\Dashboards.pdf file, the console window displays messages about export progress.
