I have a custom Active Reports server implemented in an httphandler, which can generate and export reports in the various formats available using the AR run-time ( excel, html, PDF, ... ). I'm now trying to use the JavaScript HTML5 viewer but it doesn't seem to be compatible with with any of the obvious export formats. The documentation and examples all show using the HTML5 viewer with the actual Active Reports server product and there are no examples for using it with a custom report service.
Client Code:
var viewer = GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Viewer(
{
element: '#reportViewer',
report: {
id: "report1.rdlx"
},
reportService: {
url: /MyCustomReportService/reports.mrs?msg={....}
},
uiType: 'desktop'
});
Server Code:
request.context.Response.ContentType = "image/gif";
MemoryStream memoryStream = new MemoryStream();
report.Document.Save(memoryStream);
context.Response.BinaryWrite(memoryStream.ToArray());
also tried
request.context.Response.ContentType = "message/rfc822";
HtmlExport html = new HtmlExport();
html.OutputType = HtmlOutputType.DynamicHtml;
MemoryStream memoryStream = new MemoryStream();
html.Export(report.Document, memoryStream);
request.context.Response.BinaryWrite(memoryStream.ToArray());

My team is working on an Office 365 add-in for Excel, and as part of the project, we’re creating Excel documents through the GraphAPI with the end goal of having the add-in already setup for the document. We’re using the .NET OpenXml library to create the document before copying it through the GraphAPI.
We haven’t been able to find many resources for how to setup an add-in through OpenXml and have not been able to get anything working. The last thing we tried was copying the example we found here, but we couldn’t get it working. Does anyone know how to setup add-ins using the OpenXml library?
Note: the add-in is already in the Office Add-Ins store, and we have information like the AppSource ID.
Thank you!
We're actually about to publish a new sample around this scenario. The sample shows how to create an Excel document using OOXML, embed your add-in, and then upload the file to OneDrive. It also creates a Team chat that links to the file.
You can try out the sample here: Open data from your web site in a spreadsheet in Microsoft Teams
Or give us feedback on the PR: https://github.com/OfficeDev/PnP-OfficeAddins/pull/197
To answer your question about how to embed the add-in, you need to create a web extension section. I've copied the relevant code here. Note this is the same code from the Office-OOXML-EmbedAddin sample you already looked at. We reused it for the new sample. You can change the CUSTOM MODIFICATION section to provide any custom properties you want to your add-in when it opens.

I would like to use the Autodesk Design Automation API to extract all Text and Header information from a .dwg file into a json object. Is this possible with the Design Automation API?
Any example would help.
Thankyou
#Kaliph, yes, without a plugin in .NET/C++/Lisp code, it is impossible to extract block attributes by script only. I'd recommend .NET. It would be easier for you to get started with if you are not familiar with C++.
Firstly, I'd suggest you take a look at the training labs of AutoCAD .NET API:
https://www.autodesk.com/developer-network/platform-technologies/autocad
pick the latest version if you installed a latest version of AutoCAD. The main workflow of API is same across different versions, though. you can also pick C++ (ObjectARX) if you like.
In the tutorials above, it demos how to work with block. And the blog below talks about how to get attributes:
http://through-the-interface.typepad.com/through_the_interface/2006/09/getting_autocad.html
I copied here for convenience:
using Autodesk.AutoCAD;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.DatabaseServices;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.EditorInput;
namespace MyApplication
{
public class DumpAttributes
{
[CommandMethod("LISTATT")]
public void ListAttributes()
{
Editor ed =
Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.Editor;
Database db =
HostApplicationServices.WorkingDatabase;
Transaction tr =
db.TransactionManager.StartTransaction();
// Start the transaction
try
{
// Build a filter list so that only
// block references are selected
TypedValue[] filList = new TypedValue[1] {
new TypedValue((int)DxfCode.Start, "INSERT")
};
SelectionFilter filter =
new SelectionFilter(filList);
PromptSelectionOptions opts =
new PromptSelectionOptions();
opts.MessageForAdding = "Select block references: ";
PromptSelectionResult res =
ed.GetSelection(opts, filter);
// Do nothing if selection is unsuccessful
if (res.Status != PromptStatus.OK)
return;
SelectionSet selSet = res.Value;
ObjectId[] idArray = selSet.GetObjectIds();
foreach (ObjectId blkId in idArray)
{
BlockReference blkRef =
(BlockReference)tr.GetObject(blkId,
OpenMode.ForRead);
BlockTableRecord btr =
(BlockTableRecord)tr.GetObject(
blkRef.BlockTableRecord,
OpenMode.ForRead
);
ed.WriteMessage(
"\nBlock: " + btr.Name
);
btr.Dispose();
AttributeCollection attCol =
blkRef.AttributeCollection;
foreach (ObjectId attId in attCol)
{
AttributeReference attRef =
(AttributeReference)tr.GetObject(attId,
OpenMode.ForRead);
string str =
("\n Attribute Tag: "
+ attRef.Tag
+ "\n Attribute String: "
+ attRef.TextString
);
ed.WriteMessage(str);
}
}
tr.Commit();
}
catch (Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime.Exception ex)
{
ed.WriteMessage(("Exception: " + ex.Message));
}
finally
{
tr.Dispose();
}
}
}
}
I have a sample on making signs on a drawing. It covers getting attributes and modifying attributes:
https://forge.autodesk.com/cloud_and_mobile/2016/02/sign-title-block-of-dwg-file-with-autocad-io-view-data-api.html
And I also have a sample on getting Table cells of a drawing:
https://forge.autodesk.com/blog/get-cell-data-autocad-table-design-automation-api
Hope these could help you to make the plugin for your requirements.
What do you mean by "Header" information? Can you give an example?
Finding an extracting all text objects is relatively easy if you are familiar with the AutoCAD .NET API (or C++ or Lisp).
Here's an example that extracts blocks and layer names:
https://github.com/Autodesk-Forge/design.automation-.net-custom.activity.sample
There was this one requirement for one of my SAPUI5 app table data to be able to be exported to Excel/spreadsheet. The sap.ui.core.util.Export doesn't meet the standard of exporting data especially it only write data in 1 column.
Sample exported data:
Since SAPUI5 1.50, SAP made sap.ui.export.Spreadsheet but according to one of their experts, the said library is not available for Eclipse development tools (https://answers.sap.com/questions/474315/sapuiexport-missing-in-sap-ui5-version-152.html)
It was then suggested to me to use 3rd party JS library that can export data to spreadsheet and upon researching, I came across with SheetJS. I found this article on how to implement and use the code of SheetJS library in SAPUI5: Export Excel (.xlsx extension) file with includes responsive table data in SAPUI5.
My question:
How to add external JS libraries on your SAPUI5 project on Eclipse? Please take note that we are running our SAPUI5 applications on NetWeaver server. I need to understand where to put those JS's based on the environment I have (is it fine to put it/them to webContent/ path?) and how to access them if ever.
Already got the answer by combining all the research I got.
I found a lot of combinations of external libs to use for the sheetjs to work like xlsx.js - jszip.js or xlsx.full.min.js only or there's also xlsx.full.min.js - FileSaver.js combination.
I first tried using xlsx.full.min.js and FileSaver combination and it worked! I downloaded both of the library first and copied them to my /webContent/controller path (yes, same path level of my controllers).
Next thing is to define them in your controller using sap.ui.define
Defining 3rd party libraries in SAPUI5
You will also notice that I added 2 line of codes above:
/* global XLSX:true */
/* global saveAs:true */
With those 2 line of codes, there will be an error upon call of the libraries. These are the global names of the JS if it's to be called outside of the js class.
Below is the test code I used to access the 2 JS I've mentioned above:
onExportToExcel: function() {
console.log(XLSX);
var wb = XLSX.utils.book_new();
wb.Props = {
Title: "Sample SheetJS",
Subject: "Test",
Author: "HPC",
CreatedDate: new Date(2018, 5, 19)
};
wb.SheetNames.push("Test Sheet");
var ws_data = [
['HPC', 'TEST', 'call']
]; //a row with 2 columns
var ws = XLSX.utils.aoa_to_sheet(ws_data);
wb.Sheets["Test Sheet"] = ws;
var wbout = XLSX.write(wb, {
bookType: 'xlsx',
type: 'binary'
});
function s2ab(s) {
var buf = new ArrayBuffer(s.length); //convert s to arrayBuffer
var view = new Uint8Array(buf); //create uint8array as viewer
for (var i = 0; i < s.length; i++) view[i] = s.charCodeAt(i) & 0xFF; //convert to octet
return buf;
}
saveAs(new Blob([s2ab(wbout)], {
type: "application/octet-stream"
}), 'test.xlsx');
}
Output:
Output export file
Feel free to provide feedback on this.
There might be other better approach to achieve this goal.
There is the sap.ui.export.Spreadsheet control
I built a sample here a while ago.
I'm using ASP.NET identity 2 and one of the tutorials includes using a 3rd part provider to generate a QR Code for Google authenticator for two-factor authentication. However, I don't want to send that data to a 3rd party (which is what other solutions point to, like google, etc). I'm specifically looking for code to solve my issue.
I'd like either the server or the client to generate the QR Code. Anyone else have a good solution for doing this? Below is the line of code that generates the QR Code in the cshtml file. The #(Model.BarcodeURL) is the razor model attribute with the data for the QR Code.
<img src="http://qrcode.kaywa.com/img.php?s=4&d=#(Model.BarcodeUrl)" />
I was able to do this on the server using ZXing.Net and exposing an endpoint via a controller(MVC or Web API). The endpoint would receive data via query string and generate a QRCode on the server using ZXing.Net, then send it back as a stream. This allows one to show the code as an image.
<img src="http://localhost/barcode?d=#(Model.BarcodeUrl)" />
A MVC controller for the above src could look something like this.
....
using ZXing;
using ZXing.QrCode;
using ZXing.QrCode.Internal;
using System.Windows.Media.Imaging // for SaveJpeg extension
....
public class BarcodeController : Controller {
readonly IBarcodeWriter qrCodeWriter;
BarcodeController() {
qrCodeWriter = new BarcodeWriter {
Format = BarcodeFormat.QR_CODE,
Options = new QrCodeEncodingOptions {
Margin = 1,
Height = 600,
Width = 600,
ErrorCorrection = ErrorCorrectionLevel.Q,
},
};
}
public ActionResult Index(string d) {
var writeableBitmap = qrCodeWriter.Write(d);
var memoryStream = new MemoryStream();
writeableBitmap.SaveJpeg(memoryStream, writeableBitmap.PixelWidth, writeableBitmap.PixelHeight, 0, 100);
return File(memoryStream.GetBuffer(), "image/jpeg");
}
}
Should be easy enough to do the same thing via an ApiController. You could also refactor out the code generation into a dedicated class if you want to separate concerns.
I have a form library in my share point site. Programmatically I need to fill some fields. Can I do that? If any one know please provide me some sample code. First I need to retrieve the infopath document and then I need to fill the fields.
What axel_c posted is pretty dang close. Here's some cleaned up and verified working code...
public static void ChangeFields()
{
//Open SharePoint site
using (SPSite site = new SPSite("http://<SharePoint_Site_URL>"))
{
using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb())
{
//Get handle for forms library
SPList formsLib = web.Lists["FormsLib"];
if (formsLib != null)
{
foreach (SPListItem item in formsLib.Items)
{
XmlDocument xml = new XmlDocument();
//Open XML file and load it into XML document
using (Stream s = item.File.OpenBinaryStream())
{
xml.Load(s);
}
//Do your stuff with xml here. This is just an example of setting a boolean field to false.
XmlNodeList nodes = xml.GetElementsByTagName("my:SomeBooleanField");
foreach (XmlNode node in nodes)
{
node.InnerText = "0";
}
//Get binary data for new XML
byte[] xmlData = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(xml.OuterXml);
using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(xmlData))
{
//Write data to SharePoint XML file
item.File.SaveBinary(ms);
}
}
}
}
}
}
The Infopath document is just a regular XML file, the structure of which matches the data sources you defined in the Infopath form.
You just need to access the file via the SharePoint object model, modify it using standard methods (XmlDocument API) and then write it back to the SharePoint list. You must be careful to preserve the structure and insert valid data or you won't be able to open the form using Infopath.
You should really check out a book on SharePoint if you plan to do any serious development. Infopath is also a minefield.
Object model usage examples: here, here and here. The ridiculously incomplete MSDN reference documentation is here.
EDIT: here is some example code. I haven't done SharePoint for a while so I'm not sure this is 100% correct, but it should give you enough to get started:
// Open SharePoint site
using (SPSite site = new SPSite("http://<SharePoint_Site_URL>"))
{
using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb())
{
// Get handle for forms library
SPList formsLib = web.Lists["FormsLib"];
if (formsLib != null)
{
SPListItem itm = formsLib.Items["myform.xml"];
// Open xml and load it into XML document
using (Stream s = itm.File.OpenBinary ())
{
MemoryStream ms;
byte[] xmlData;
XmlDocument xml = new XmlDocument ();
xml.Load (s);
s.Close ();
// Do your stuff with xml here ...
// Get binary data for new XML
xmlData = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes (xml.DocumentElement.OuterXml);
ms = new MemoryStream (xmlData);
// Write data to sharepoint item
itm.File.SaveBinary (ms);
ms.Close ();
itm.Update ();
}
}
web.Close();
}
site.Close();
}
It depends a bit on your available tool set, skills and exact requirements.
There are 2 main ways of pre populating data inside an InfoPath form.
Export the relevant fields as part of the form's publishing process. The fields will then become columns on the Document / Forms library from where you can manipulate them either manually, via a Workflow or wherever your custom code is located.
Directly manipulate the form using code similar to what was provided by Axel_c previously. The big question here is: what will trigger this code? An event receiver on the Document Library, a SharePoint Designer Workflow, a Visual Studio workflow etc?
If you are trying to do this from a SharePoint Designer workflow then have a look at the Workflow Power Pack for SharePoint. It allows C# and VB code to be embedded directly into the workflow without the need for complex Visual Studio development. An example of how to query InfoPath data from a workflow can be found here. If you have some development skills you should be able to amend it to suit your needs.
I also recommend the site www.infopathdev.com, they have excellent and active forums. You will almost certainly find an answer to your question there.
Thanks for the sample code, #axel_c and #Jeff Burt
Below is just the same code from Jeff Burt modified for a file in Document set which I needed. If you don't already have the Document Set reference, you can check out this site on how to grab one:
http://howtosharepoint.blogspot.com/2010/12/programmatically-create-document-set.html
Also, the codes will open the .xml version of the infopath form and not the .xsn template version which you might run into.
Thanks again everyone...
private void ChangeFields(DocumentSet docSet)
{
string extension = "";
SPFolder documentsetFolder = docSet.Folder;
foreach (SPFile file in documentsetFolder.Files)
{
extension = Path.GetExtension(file.Name);
if (extension != ".xml") //check if it's a valid xml file
return;
XmlDocument xml = new XmlDocument();
//Open XML file and load it into XML document, needs to be .xml file not .xsn
using (Stream s = file.OpenBinaryStream())
{
xml.Load(s);
}
//Do your stuff with xml here. This is just an example of setting a boolean field to false.
XmlNodeList nodes = xml.GetElementsByTagName("my:fieldtagname");
foreach (XmlNode node in nodes)
{
node.InnerText = "xyz";
}
//Get binary data for new XML
byte[] xmlData = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(xml.OuterXml);
using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(xmlData))
{
//Write data to SharePoint XML file
file.SaveBinary(ms);
}
}
}
I had this issue and resolved it with help from Jeff Burt / Axel_c's posts.
I was trying to use the XMLDocument.Save([stream]) and SPItem.File.SaveBinary([stream]) methods to write an updated InfoPath XML file back to a SharePoint library. It appears that XMLDocument.Save([stream]) writes the file back to SharePoint with the wrong encoding, regardless of what it says in the XML declaration.
When trying to open the updated InfoPath form I kept getting the error "a calculation in the form has not been completed..."
I've written these two functions to get and update and InfoPath form. Just manipulate the XML returned from ReadSPFiletoXMLdocument() in the usual way and send it back to your server using WriteXMLtoSPFile().
private System.Xml.XmlDocument ReadSPFiletoXMLdocument(SPListItem item)
{
//get SharePoint file XML
System.Xml.XmlDocument xDoc = new System.Xml.XmlDocument();
try
{
using (System.IO.Stream xmlStream = item.File.OpenBinaryStream())
{
xDoc.Load(xmlStream);
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
//put your own error handling here
}
return xDoc;
}
private void WriteXMLtoSPFile(SPListItem item, XmlDocument xDoc)
{
byte[] xmlData = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(xDoc.OuterXml);
try
{
using (System.IO.MemoryStream outStream = new System.IO.MemoryStream(xmlData))
{
item.File.SaveBinary(outStream);
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
//put your own error handling here
}
}
