Creating reports and dashboards | Stimulsoft community forum

Hi Stimulsoft Team & community,

i was wondering, as i was doing some research on having a good way, in using GIT with these Report Files.

Since we have to use the MRX encryption File, we dont even see any difs in GIT.

But how is it even possible, to manage these Report Files, on different versions / branches, and merge them together like any other code files?

is it not possible with encrypted Report files, or is it not possible in general, to merge for example one report properly from another branch?

what is the official suggestion for this "normal/common development" process?

thank you & best regards
Mike

Hello,

Report files are text files. They cannot be merged so easily, because they have a linked structure within the file. However, mrx is a bit file - no ways.

Thank you.

Hi Lech

thanks for your fast reply on my questions / confusion.

so if it would be un-encrypted (without MRX) - it should be possible to handle the reports with GIT?
Is there any guides around, which describes this topic with tips or a small hands on?

thanks & best regards

Hello,

Unfortunately, there is no documentation or any advice to offer.

Thank you.
