Description

GreenVulcano® ESB allows you with the birt-report-call plugin to define the information needed for generating BIRT reports.

VulCon / GV Console Configuration

This plugin defines the information needed to generate a report BIRT, and configures it in the file GVAdapters.xml.

The report can use the properties of the GVBuffer of input, making the necessary format conversions.

The birt-report-call Element is used by Channel, routed-call. Its attributes are:

Attribute Type Description
type fixed This attribute must assume the value call.
class fixed This attribute must assume the value it.greenvulcano.gvesb.virtual.birt.report.BIRTReportCallOperation.
name required Operation name. Used in the Flow section to associate workflow nodes to VCL operations.
groupName required Reference to group name.
reportName required Reference to report name.
reportType optional Report format, default to pdf. The attribute's admitted values are:
  • pdf
  • excel
  • html

How To

Birt-report-call VulCon Configuration

For configuring a BIRT report from VulCon you must follow three steps:

  1. Add a new report in the GVBIRTReportConfiguration.
    This elements is present in the Adapters view. You can create a new ReportGroup or use an existing one. Right clicking the apposite ReportGroup you can add a new Report and configure it.
  2. Add a birt-report-call. From the Core view, right click the apposite Channel and select birt-report-call from the expanded list. Set the groupName and reportName attributes as those configured in the first step.
  3. Add an GVOperationNode into your Service Flow (or SubFlow) and set the attribute operation-name with the name of the birt-report-call created in the second step.

Then you can create the BIRT Report using GV Console®. For more information see the GV Console Report section.
