I've done some more work on DB-based reports. It keeps some of the old clunkiness, but does bring it all into the DB. I think the current version now incorporates all of the functionality of a CFG file. The code updates I've made are mostly self-contained, but there is a new report_id field that I added to tbl_report_usage. I committed a db_mod to git, but these were never my strong suit. :) I've also written a script that will read an existing set of CFG files and post them to the DB. It will preserve an existing report tree (shelter, clinical, etc.) by storing the paths in the sortkey field. I've tested it pretty carefully with the CFG files Nathan sent me, as well as a couple I created, and I think it's pretty solid. (Solid as in working. I freely confess that it's fairly ugly!) If anyone at DESC gives this a test run, please post back what the results were. Any feedback on this current implementation--especially shortcomings or omissions I might not have caught--would be welcome. Thanks. Ken |
