This example shows how to render the report using the external XML data. First, you need to the create report object of the
StiReport
type, then load the report template file by calling the
loadFile()
method.
As data storage, you can use the
DataSet
object. This object contains the data tables and rows needed for the report. To load XML data from file into DataSet, you can use the
readXmlSchemaFile()
and
readXmlFile()
methods. There is the
regData()
methodto register a data in the report. This method receives a data source name, data source alias and data object such as a DataSet:
<script type="text/javascript">
// Create a new report instance
var report = new Stimulsoft.Report.StiReport();
// Load report from url
report.loadFile("../reports/SimpleList.mrt");
// Create new DataSet object
var dataSet = new Stimulsoft.System.Data.DataSet("Demo");
// Load XML Shema file from specified URL to the DataSet object
dataSet.readXmlSchemaFile("../reports/Demo.xsd");
// Load XML data file from specified URL to the DataSet object
dataSet.readXmlFile("../reports/Demo.xml");
// Remove all connections from the report template
report.dictionary.databases.clear();
// Register DataSet object
report.regData("Demo", "Demo", dataSet);
// Render report with registered data
report.renderAsync(function () {
document.write("Complete.<br>");
document.write("Rendered pages count: " + report.renderedPages.count);
});
</script>
