Adding custom page at end

[kevinvdheuvel]

Hi

We would like to add the last page to our export file where we would like to display some use full information to the customer.

we tried to add that HTML content to footer but due to some space issue, the content will be splitting into two page.

we want a dedicated last page to provide some useful information to our customer
like :

printlastpage.PNG (9.84 KiB) Viewed 2469 times

Do we have any options?

Hello.
There is a protected method you can override: Sch.plugin.AbstractExporter#onPagesExtracted. Try smth like this:

Code: Select all

Ext.define(null, {
  override: 'Sch.plugin.AbstractExporter',
  onPagesExtracted: function (pages) {
    pages.push({
      html: 'you html goes here',
      number: ++me.numberOfPages
    });
    this.callParent(arguments);
  }
})

Hi

How can we register this new custom exporter to print plugin?
From API, we found this method registerExporter , but when/how do we call that method?

This particular code snippet is an override, if you load it before instantiating scheduler you will get it working.
Assuming you want to use a proper way, you need to register exporter indeed. You can specify exportes in plugin config:

Code: Select all

Ext.define('MyExporter', {
  extend: 'Sch.plugin.exporter.MultiPage' // do not use abstract exporter here, it is too abstract
  onPagesExtracted: function () {...}
});
  
new Sch.panel.SchedulerGrid({
  plugins: [{
    ptype: 'scheduler_export',
    exporters: ['MyExporter'] // don't forget to require class properly
  }]
})

This should do the trick.

Speaking of method you mentioned, registerExporter, it can be called in any point of time after plugin was instantiated and before you start export (or export dialog is shown). But providing config should be simplier
