plugin step: multiple step copies problem

$
0
0
I have written a plugin step for PDI. it runs well, but when I add a second copy of the same step to the transformation, then some of the output fields of the step are not correctly propagated.

there is information on the web about plugin step development, but I did not find specific details for this case.

has anybody a link or some thoughts on this problem?

Auto generate width value

$
0
0
I have a process that converts my prpt reports to HTML. I'm having some issues with element height and width being inconsistent in my spreadhseet across browsers. In particular Safari. My elements are produced as expected in Chrome and Firefox remaining consistent with the style sizes designated in the style column in PRD but Safari ignores those rules bunching elements together completely unaligned. I'm hoping that someone can provide insight as to how to set the height & width style (size & position) to auto generate to the size that is generated by the report based on the data in a particular column rather than overlapping. My assumption is that this will fix my issue and keep consistent spacing across all browsers?

Seperate Headers for PONumbers

$

Hello,

I need to create a csv file outpout that contains 2 different headers por each particular PONumber. I have an excel file that I need to transform into something like this (output file).

Example (output result):

PO Header
type|direction|section|CustomerNumber|PONumber|BillToNumber|OrderRequiredDate|OrderDeliveryDate|CustomerPODate|ShipToNumber|BlanketPO|Terms|DefaultWarehouseName||||
SALES|IN|HDR|FECH|203976|FECHHEIMER-Cincinnati|3/21/2014|3/21/2014|30/12/2013|FECHHEIMER-Hodgenville||Net 30|El Salvador||||

PO Detail

type|direction|section|CustomerNumber|PONumber|UnitPrice|StyleNumber|Season|StyleCustomerNumber|CustomerColorName|GarmentSize|StyleOption5|StyleOption3|DetailRequestCount|||
"SALES|IN|DTL|FECH|203976|11.18|47280|F11|FECH|Navy|28,REGULAR|||4|||"
"SALES|IN|DTL|FECH|203976|11.18|47280|F11|FECH|Navy|29,REGULAR|||6|||"
"SALES|IN|DTL|FECH|203976|11.18|47280|F11|FECH|Navy|30,REGULAR|||32|||"

NOTE: THIS IS THE EXAMPLE EXCEL INPUT FILE THAT I'M USINGInput File.xls

Any ideas how to create this seperate headers for each particular PONumber?

Format Euro currency but keep en-US locale

$
0
0
I would like to format a currency in Euros in the local format, for example "€ 1.234,56" and it needs to keep the same format regardless of the user's Locale.

When I set the number format to be "€ #.##0,00" the number does not show (which I guess makes sense since that it has the decimal separator before the grouping separator). When I set it to be "€ #,##0.00" the number appears but with the wrong grouping (for example, € 141,839.00). I am assuming that is because my Locale is set to en-US.

Ultimately I would like to pass the number format in via a formula so that I can display different currencies on the same report.

Is it possible to set a formula so it interprets the "." and "," literally rather than as a grouping/separator symbol? Or a way to set the locale per field rather than per report?

Thanks,
Dan

Widows, Orphans and Page Breaks

$
0
0
I have a report which containing 4 groups. The report expands vertically depending on the variable selected. Every record is contained within all groups. Groups 1-3 define the data hierarchically. Group 4 (the innermost group) groups similar data. I am struggling to format page breaks, widows and orphans consistently as the report is loaded with new department data. Sometimes, the headers are left behind. Other times, the data is truncated. In some cases, I will find that 1/2 of a record is hiding behind the page footer.

Can someone explain how to better manage these attributes in PRD?


Thanks!

Problem with space creating the JVM

$

Hi everyone!
I have a problem when starting the biserver with start-pentaho.bat. When I try to execute it, it says something like:

Error occurred during initialization of VM
Could not reserve enough space for object heap
Could not create the Java virtual machine.


I searched on the Internet and tried two things but none of them are working for me.

1. I start the server from "/tomcat/bin startup.bat". In this case, the server starts and I can access the locaklhost:8080/pentaho. But it goes really slow and when I want to save something I get an error and in the tomcat server it is possible to read something regarding the space problem. I tried to set the "initial memory pool" and "maximum memory pool" to higher numbers but still it does not work.

2. I start the service with "/biserver-ce start-pentaho.bat" changing before the

set CATALINA_OPTS=-Xms1024m -Xmx2048m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m to higher values just to check-> 2048, 4096 and 512

But still I get an error with that.

Anyone can give me a hint?
Thanks in advance and kind regards,
Alain

Convert fields into parameters

Hi,
i haven't yet understood how can i change a field into a parameter in a a transoformation. Sometime i have a step which require a value contained in a field as paramater. I'll show you a quick example which you can find in attachment.
This simple job should takes all the csv files inside of a folder, makes some operation on these, and then save these with the same name in another folder. The problem is that i don't know how to call these files with the name of the original.
Maybe there's another way to do this. Any suggestions ?

Hello,

have just started to use Pentaho Report Designer, and its brilliant, but having a little trouble with understanding how to apply conditions to a field. In my source database I have a field that can either be '0' or '1' and based on that value I would like to set a text-field to be conditionally set to 'Inbound' or 'Outbound'. How would one achieve that please ?

Thank you.

Ctools Dashboard development in 5.0 - Using your favorite editor for js / css files

$
0
0
5.0 came with a new paradigm for the file repository. No longer we have a file representation of the content of the JCR.

Imagine we're developing a Pentaho Ctools dashboard. We have an external resource for the CSS or the Javascript that we're tweaking. CDE has a very good editor, but sometimes people would like to keep using a specific one. I personally bounce between vi and netbeans.

And let's face it - Edit, upload, test is not the most practical way of doing things.

Pentaho Repository Synchronizer gives a huge help, but running it every time we change a css file is also not optimal.

So I use a small trick. Follow this steps:

1. Have an alias for python SimpleHTTPServer module

I have set this alias on my system. I'm a linux user, but this should be relatively easy to do regardless of the operating system

alias webserver-current-dir='python -m SimpleHTTPServer'
2. Start a webserver in the resources directory

My project files are stored in
project-client-solution/repositorySynchronizer/public/Client/files, and under that I have the js/, css/, etc directories. So I simply go to that file and launch the alias I defined previously. I should now be able to point the browser to http://127.0.0.1:8000/js/client.js . 8000 is the default port for that python module

3. Edit the CDE template to add the js and css files

There are a couple of ways to do this. Adding that previous link to the dashboard (through an external resource) is a way. But I'm always afraid that in the end I forget to remove it or switch it back. So I added it directly to system/pentaho-cdf-dd/resources/styles/Clean.html (the default cde template I'm using)







@HEADER@



@CONTENT@

@FOOTER@




4. Done

Now if you just point and editor to the filesystem, a simple save and reload will make it work!

When i am concatenating string and integer it is giving wrong values.. If any one of the string value is null it should not come as undefined.
