generating Reports in Ruby On Rails

Hi all,

I need to generate reports from my ROR application with following features: (1) Query builder where a user can specify various filter conditions (2) Support for html & pdf reports (3) Standard Toolbar with print, save report.

Is there any standard plugin available which will cater to above requirements? Any help in this regard will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks and Regards, Medha.

Medha:

Take a look at the Ruport library: http://ruport.infogami.com/ and the assoicated Rails plugin:

http://stonecode.svnrepository.com/acts_as_reportable/trac.cgi

I know it can export to different formats and build queries, but allowing the user to build custom filters and having toolbars and what not may require custom coding.

In addition to Ruport there is the ActiveWarehouse plugin for Rails (http://activewarehouse.rubyforge.org/) which I am developing. It won't meet the export to PDF nor will it handle saving reports but it may provide a basis for customization.
