Hmmm. I will double check, but this is running in production over here right 
now, so I’m wondering if the reporting functionality has changed since I looked 
at it.  What version of ASpace are you targeting?

Hi Dave,

Thank you for this link, it's really helpful. I've installed your reports 
plugin on a dev system and am now hitting the same problem I'm having with my 
report - how to get the text box to show up on the report screen (i.e. what to 
put in the jobs/report_partials/_string partial). I tried just using the 
following line:

<% form.textfield name, nil, :class => 'text-field form-control' %>

But this leads to the attached being displayed instead of a text box! Might you 
be able to advise on how you were able to configure String parameter entry? 
It's not part of this plugin as far as I can see.

Many thanks,
Nick

Hi,

We have a plugin we wrote with some custom SQL reports – this one uses a string 
parameter for an EADID or list of EADIDs - 
https://github.com/harvard-library/harvard_aspace_reports/blob/master/backend/model/resource_top_containers.rb<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__github.com_harvard-2Dlibrary_harvard-5Faspace-5Freports_blob_master_backend_model_resource-5Ftop-5Fcontainers.rb&d=DwMF-g&c=WO-RGvefibhHBZq3fL85hQ&r=_Mv1dY22K7jvT5MD7xjbvGVzRDOUMhx4WYcnPSIzYnE&m=vxglUw8t_VtzdmI4EgmrlZKgEhbH4HWb62nSSw8qxSg&s=_4X19v5v8vsd2PaH5kstXhBz--LcfhRVWxmxhDgeTxk&e=>

This is currently installed in production and working; it should be fine to 
install it and test locally or on a QA system, if you want to try it out in a 
live system.

Hi Nick,



I have an SQL query that I’ve embedded into an Excel spreadsheet (as a .odc 
file) which prompts the user for a value. The value I’m prompting for is 
numeric, but the code could be adjusted to take a string. I don’t think this is 
what you want, but if it is, please let me know and I’ll forward the code.



Karen

Hi all,



We've been asked to create a custom report that allows the user running it to 
input a string which is then used to search across various fields. I've checked 
through the pre-existing reports, and through several reports created by other 
institutions, but I haven't found an example of a report accepting a string 
parameter (only booleans and dates). I see from e.g. 
https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/75000415aa5ee60411c6caf012042af4fc157d00/frontend/app/views/jobs/_form.html.erb#L121<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/75000415aa5ee60411c6caf012042af4fc157d00/frontend/app/views/jobs/_form.html.erb*L121__;Iw!!Dq0X2DkFhyF93HkjWTBQKhk!GX75QheNm0-XxIApINdOyeac54bS2ZjNyPlm_nxqTYFfTBABH9vDI0OxgolnoLIKYgcArjCl$>
 that it should be possible to use a custom partial for different data types 
but nothing I've tried has worked so far. Is anyone doing anything like this, 
and might they have an example of it working?



Many thanks!

Nick
