JIRISReport

This is a tool for create and execute JasperReports on InterSystems IRIS.

Description

The JIRISReport allows you:

• Design reports using JasperReports Studio
• Run the report files (jrxml files) and get PDF, Word, Excel or HTML reports

Prerequisites

• TTF fonts, if you dont have Arial or other fonts on your Linux install ttf-mscorefonts-installer
• Use JasperReports Studio CE (Community Edition) to design your reports on https://community.jaspersoft.com/community-download
• Connect from JasperReports to IRIS using the IRIS JDBC driver on https://github.com/intersystems-community/iris-driver-distribution/tree/main/JDBC
• You need InterSystems IRIS (any version)

Installation with Docker

Clone/git pull the repo into any local directory

$ git clone https://github.com/yurimarx/jirisreport.git

Open the terminal in this directory and call the command to build and run InterSystems IRIS in container:
Note: Users running containers on a Linux CLI, should use “docker compose” instead of “docker-compose”
See Install the Compose plugin

$ docker-compose up -d

Installation with ZPM

USER> zpm install jirisreport

If your OS host is Linux, install ttf fonts:

sudo echo ttf-mscorefonts-installer msttcorefonts/accepted-mscorefonts-eula select true | debconf-set-selections
apt-get update && \ 
apt-get install ttf-mscorefonts-installer -y && \
