Export to Image Programmatically?

[nickdavies07]

Is it possible to export a report to a data:image/uri/base-64 to be saved in the database?
We'd like to look at showing a preview of a report on the home screen of our app, and clicking it takes the user into the report.

Hello,

Yes, you can export the rendered report to image format

Thanks for the link - I can't see from that link though where I can export to image? Only HTML, PDF, Word, Excel and CSV are listed.

Hello,

You can use the necessary StiExportFormat

Hmm, I must be missing something.
I'm using Vue and after the report is rendered, I'm running the following:

Code: Select all

        computed: {
            viewer() {
                let options = new Stimulsoft.Viewer.StiViewerOptions();
                options.appearance.allowChangeWindowTitle = false;
                options.toolbar.showOpenButton = false;
                options.toolbar.showSaveButton = false;
                options.toolbar.viewMode = 2;

                return new Stimulsoft.Viewer.StiViewer(options, 'StiViewer', false);
            },

            report() {
                return new Stimulsoft.Report.StiReport();
            },
        },

	export() {
                this.report.renderAsync(() => {
                    this.report.exportDocument(Stimulsoft.Report.StiExportFormat.Pdf);
                })
        }

Nothing at all seems to happen? Should I be doing something else? The function `export()` is called on button press.

Hello,

Please check:

Code: Select all

report.renderAsync(function () {
var data = report.exportDocument(Stimulsoft.Report.StiExportFormat.Pdf);
Object.saveAs(data, "Report.pdf", "application/pdf");
})

Thank you.
