I have a web application with a dropdown from where user could select the type of report viz. report1, report2, report3, etc.
Based on the report selected, a Jasper report is compiled on the server and opens as a pop up in PDF format.
On the server side, I am implementing each report in a separate method using below code say for e.g. for report1:
JRBeanCollectionDataSource report1DataSource = new JRBeanCollectionDataSource(resultSetBeanListReport1);
InputStream inputStreamReport1 = new FileInputStream(request.getSession().getServletContext ().getRealPath(jrxmlFilePath + "report1.jrxml"));
JasperDesign jasperDesignReport1 = JRXmlLoader.load(inputStreamReport1);
JasperReport jasperReportReport1 = JasperCompileManager.compileReport(jasperDesignReport1);
bytes = JasperRunManager.runReportToPdf(jasperReportReport1, titleMapReport1, report1DataSource);
Similarly, report2 is in a separate method with below code:
JRBeanCollectionDataSource invstSummDataSource = new JRBeanCollectionDataSource(resultSetBeanListInvstOfSumm);
InputStream inputStreamInvstSumm = new FileInputStream(request.getSession().getServletContext().getRealPath(jrxmlFilePath + "investSummary.jrxml"));
JasperDesign jasperDesignInvstSumm = JRXmlLoader.load(inputStreamInvstSumm);
JasperReport jasperReportInvstSumm = JasperCompileManager.compileReport(jasperDesignInvstSumm);
bytes = JasperRunManager.runReportToPdf(jasperReportInvstSumm, titleMapInvstSumm, invstSummDataSource);
Now I have a requirement that if report1 is selected from the dropdown, the resulting PDF should contain all the reports one after other in the same PDF.
How can I combine above two lines of codes to finally generate a single PDF?
Here is sample code for combining multiple jasper prints
List<JasperPrint> jasperPrints = new ArrayList<JasperPrint>();
// Your code to get Jasperreport objects
JasperReport jasperReportReport1 = JasperCompileManager.compileReport(jasperDesignReport1);
jasperPrints.add(jasperReportReport1);
JasperReport jasperReportReport2 = JasperCompileManager.compileReport(jasperDesignReport2);
jasperPrints.add(jasperReportReport2);
JasperReport jasperReportReport3 = JasperCompileManager.compileReport(jasperDesignReport3);
jasperPrints.add(jasperReportReport3);
JRPdfExporter exporter = new JRPdfExporter();
//Create new FileOutputStream or you can use Http Servlet Response.getOutputStream() to get Servlet output stream
// Or if you want bytes create ByteArrayOutputStream
ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
exporter.setParameter(JRExporterParameter.JASPER_PRINT_LIST, jasperPrints);
exporter.setParameter(JRExporterParameter.OUTPUT_STREAM, out);
exporter.exportReport();
byte[] bytes = out.toByteArray();
This answer is to help user using latest version of Jasper-Report. In
@Sangram Jadhav accept answer the
JRExporterParameter.JASPER_PRINT_LIST
is deprecated
The current code would be:
Map<String, Object> paramMap = new HashMap<String, Object>();
List<JasperPrint> jasperPrintList = new ArrayList<JasperPrint>();
JasperPrint jasperPrint1 = JasperFillManager.fillReport(report1, paramMap);
jasperPrintList.add(jasperPrint1);
JasperPrint jasperPrint2 = JasperFillManager.fillReport(report2, paramMap);
jasperPrintList.add(jasperPrint2);
JRPdfExporter exporter = new JRPdfExporter();
exporter.setExporterInput(SimpleExporterInput.getInstance(jasperPrintList)); //Set as export input my list with JasperPrint s
exporter.setExporterOutput(new SimpleOutputStreamExporterOutput("pdf/output.pdf")); //or any other out streaam
SimplePdfExporterConfiguration configuration = new SimplePdfExporterConfiguration();
configuration.setCreatingBatchModeBookmarks(true); //add this so your bookmarks work, you may set other parameters
exporter.setConfiguration(configuration);
exporter.exportReport();
You can either merge reports before generating PDFs using JasperPrint
or after generating PDFs using iText.
For the JasperPrint
solution: you will generate the 2 (or more) JasperPrint
s then get the content pages and concat them.
JasperPrint jp1 = JasperFillManager.fillReport(url.openStream(), parameters,
new JRBeanCollectionDataSource(inspBean));
JasperPrint jp2 = JasperFillManager.fillReport(url.openStream(), parameters,
new JRBeanCollectionDataSource(inspBean));
List pages = jp2 .getPages();
for (int j = 0; j < pages.size(); j++) {
JRPrintPage object = (JRPrintPage)pages.get(j);
jp1.addPage(object);
}
JasperViewer.viewReport(jp1,false);
For the iText solution after generating the PDFs:
void concatPDFs(List<InputStream> streamOfPDFFiles, OutputStream outputStream, boolean paginate) {
Document document = new Document();
try {
List<InputStream> pdfs = streamOfPDFFiles;
List<PdfReader> readers = new ArrayList<PdfReader>();
int totalPages = 0;
Iterator<InputStream> iteratorPDFs = pdfs.iterator();
// Create Readers for the pdfs.
while (iteratorPDFs.hasNext()) {
InputStream pdf = iteratorPDFs.next();
PdfReader pdfReader = new PdfReader(pdf);
readers.add(pdfReader);
totalPages += pdfReader.getNumberOfPages();
}
// Create a writer for the outputstream
PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.getInstance(document, outputStream);
document.open();
BaseFont bf = BaseFont.createFont(BaseFont.HELVETICA, BaseFont.CP1252, BaseFont.NOT_EMBEDDED);
PdfContentByte cb = writer.getDirectContent(); // Holds the PDF
// data
PdfImportedPage page;
int currentPageNumber = 0;
int pageOfCurrentReaderPDF = 0;
Iterator<PdfReader> iteratorPDFReader = readers.iterator();
// Loop through the PDF files and add to the output.
while (iteratorPDFReader.hasNext()) {
PdfReader pdfReader = iteratorPDFReader.next();
// Create a new page in the target for each source page.
while (pageOfCurrentReaderPDF < pdfReader.getNumberOfPages()) {
document.newPage();
pageOfCurrentReaderPDF++;
currentPageNumber++;
page = writer.getImportedPage(pdfReader, pageOfCurrentReaderPDF);
cb.addTemplate(page, 0, 0);
// Code for pagination.
if (paginate) {
cb.beginText();
cb.setFontAndSize(bf, 9);
cb.showTextAligned(PdfContentByte.ALIGN_CENTER, "" + currentPageNumber + " of " + totalPages, 520, 5, 0);
cb.endText();
}
}
pageOfCurrentReaderPDF = 0;
}
outputStream.flush();
document.close();
outputStream.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
if (document.isOpen())
document.close();
try {
if (outputStream != null)
outputStream.close();
} catch (IOException ioe) {
ioe.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
Here is my code which i use on grails code as well as java.Its gives me two different report in one pdf.
String reportDir = Util.getReportDirectory() // my report directory
Map reportParams = new LinkedHashMap()
Map reportParams1 = new LinkedHashMap()
String outputReportName="Test_Output_copy"
reportParams.put('parameter name',"parameter")
reportParams1.put('copy',"Customer's Copy")
JasperReportDef reportDef1 = new JasperReportDef(name: 'testBillReport.jasper', fileFormat: JasperExportFormat.PDF_FORMAT,
parameters: reportParams, folder: reportDir)
JasperReportDef reportDef2 = new JasperReportDef(name: 'testBillReport.jasper', fileFormat: JasperExportFormat.PDF_FORMAT,
parameters: reportParams1, folder: reportDir)
List<JasperReportDef> jasperPrintList = new ArrayList<JasperReportDef>();
jasperPrintList.add(reportDef1);
jasperPrintList.add(reportDef2);
ByteArrayOutputStream report1 = jasperService.generateReport(jasperPrintList);
response.setHeader("Content-disposition", "inline;filename="+outputReportName+'.pdf')
response.contentType = "application/pdf"
response.outputStream << report1.toByteArray()
