1  This report demo uses a custom reporting template to  This report demo uses a custom reporting template to
2  summarize "Accounting Foobulations".  summarize "Accounting Foobulations".
3    
4  To run (once it actually works):  Files:
5      monthly.grd  Basic monthly report with parameter and triggers
6      docbook.grd  A report which directly produce docbook output. Don't
7                   use filter settings with this report.
8      pg_schema.sql The database schema for both reports (in Postgresql SQL)
9    
10      monthly_i18n_zh.grd The monthly report translated to chinese.
11      pg_schema_i18n_zh.sql Additional i18n data
12    
13    Monthly.grd
14    ===========
15    
16    First install the schema:
17      psql <dbname> < pg_schema.sql
18    
19    To run:
20    grcvs monthly.grd subtitle="April 2002" begin="04/01/2002" end="04/30/2002"    grcvs monthly.grd subtitle="April 2002" begin="04/01/2002" end="04/30/2002"
21    
22  You can try different filter settings:  You can try different filter settings (like html, pdf, csv, text):
23    grcvs --filter pdf -d test.pdf subtitle="April 2002" begin="04/01/2002" end="04/30/2002"    grcvs --filter html -d test.html monthly.grd subtitle="April 2002" begin="04/01/2002" end="04/30/2002"
24    
25    You can even print it directly to a printer (or email or fax it):
26      grcvs --filter pdf -D printer -d <printer name> monthly.grd subtitle="April 2002" begin="04/01/2002" end="04/30/2002"
27    
28    i18n
29    ====
30    
31    To test the i18n version you have to set the textEncoding setting (in gnue.conf)
32    to utf-8. For correct PDF file creation you have to edit /src/adapters/filters/SimpleTabulation/tabulator/formatters/pdf.py and set the font and boldfont settings to a font which supports unicode like Zenkai-Medium, Simsun, ArialUnicode etc.
33    
34    docbook.grd
35    ===========
36    
37    To run:
38      grcvs -d monthly_foo.xml docbook.grd subtitle="April 2002" begin="04/01/2002" end="04/30/2002"
39    
40    Now you can transform the docbook file to pdf, ps, ... with the xmlto commands.
41    [this is broken at the moment as we don't produce 100% conformant docbook]
42    
43    xmlto pdf monthly_foo.xml > monthly_foo.pdf
44    
45    Attention: We create XML docbook here, so the db2xxx commands (for SGML db) don't work!!!
