Reporting from Ruby/Rails
At our company we normally use Crystal Reports or Cognos for any reports which need to be generated from an application. This software has api''s for Java which make it pretty easy to run a report. Anyone have experience with these "enterprisey" reporting tools with ruby? Other options which people have used? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

No, but I''ve used pdf-writer to roll my own reports. You have to lay everything out by hand, so maybe this is not an enterprisey solution. jjathman-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org wrote:> At our company we normally use Crystal Reports or Cognos for any > reports which need to be generated from an application.

It can be made to work with rails with some glue such as a web service however.

Anyone > have experience with these "enterprisey" reporting tools with ruby? > Other options which people have used?I ended up writing an entirely configurable reporting system for Rails. No coding is necessary. It can generate any kind of calculated grid of numbers based on metrics that you set up over your Models via the GUI and it graphs it all with scruffy (http://scruffy.rubyforge.org/) I have been planning to spin it out as an engine for anybody to use. If this is of interest to you, email me and I will send you screen shots.

you could take a look at JasperReports. http://www.jasperforge.org/ http://jasperforge.org/sf/projects/jasperreports it''s a java based mature solution. i''m just looking for a good way to integrate it into my rails application. for now every report is heating up an jvm. works fine. but in a large environment im sure thats not the right way. also they have a nice, free grphical tool to draw up the reports. http://jasperforge.org/sf/projects/ireport here''s a short description how to integrate JasperReports into Rails http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/HowtoIntegrateJasperReports --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
