User Defined Sort On Grouped Data [message #646376] Thu, 23 December 2010 10:09 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Hi,

I am trying to allow report users to sort data on any column and in any sort direction (asc/desc). So far, after poring over many websites, I am still unable to achieve this.

Here is the problem:

In this contrived example the report has 3 tables; Customer Details, Order Details 1 and Order Details 2. The aim is to order by column 1 descending, in all 3 tables. In the Customer Details table this is done by including the following code for the "onPrepare" event:

importPackage( Packages.org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.api.script.element );
importPackage( Packages.org.eclipse.birt.report.model.api.simpleapi );

var sortCondition = StructureScriptAPIFactory.createSortCondition();
sortCondition.setKey("row[\"CUSTOMERNUMBER\"]");
sortCondition.setDirection("desc");

var sortKey = sortCondition.getStructure();
this.addSortCondition( SimpleElementFactory.getInstance().createSortCondition(sortK ey));

In the Order Details 1 table I have used the same method as above but this time it has no effect. This table is grouped by ORDERNUMBER, so presumably I would need to get to the "group" itself, before applying the sort condition.

With this in mind I have an Order Details 2 table. In the "beforeFactory" event I have included the following code, attempting to change the sort condition:

importPackage(Packages.org.eclipse.birt.report.model.api.ele ments);
delm = reportContext.getDesignHandle().findElement("OrderTest");

tghOrderTest = delm.getGroups().get(0);
tghOrderTest.setKey("row[\"ORDERNUMBER\"]");
tghOrderTest.setSortDirection("desc"); //"asc"

This code has no effect, although...curiously, if I swap the last two lines of code, the report does render "ORDERNUMBER" in descending order. It appears that there is a problem with the "setKey" code although I can't think why, as the syntax is identical to the working version in the "Customer Details" table.

I am new to BIRT and may have overlooked something really obvious, but having spent some time trying various options I am none the wiser.

Can you help?

Re: User Defined Sort On Grouped Data [message #646618 is a reply to message #646556] Wed, 29 December 2010 05:52 Go to previous messageGo to next message

Thanks for your reply Jason.

In table 1, with the group "NewTableGroup1", is it possible to sort on any column, while keeping the original grouping intact? If I wished to see only the group header with aggregated values (no underlying detail shown).

For example:
Col1 | Col2 | Col3 |Col4
ORDERNUMBER | SUM(QUANTITYORDERED) | SUM(PRICEEACH) | COUNT(ORDERLINENUMBER)

Is it possible to order by "Col2" while still grouping by "Col1"?

Thanks again.
David

David,

Yes this can be done. First add aggregates to header and delete detail
row. Then use script to add a sort key to the group. Take a look at
the attached example.

the link www.birt-exchange.org/org/devshare/designing-birt-reports/1308-grouping-and-table-sorting-using-de-api/ is broken.
