BI Publisher and PCL output format with FOP

I've made tests with Oracle BI Publisher and Apache FOP 0.93 in order to adress a specific need (PCL output)

My first tests where not sucessful, BUT, with minor modifications in the FO object generated by BI Publisher, it's possible to use FOP.
The main technical stopper is :
region-body must be declared BEFORE region-before and region-after in the simple-master-page container.

After a manual switch, i tried the Apache FOP program with the -R parameter (relaxed validation wich ignores xdfo extensions) and a PCL or TXT output format.
The result is OK, despite some minors display problem.

Template rtf:


Utilisation du renderer FOP d'Apache
L'idée est d'utiliser BI PUblisher jusqu'à la production de ce que l'on appelle un objet FO (description du rapport avant sa restitution sur une imprimante ou pdf, ou autre).
Le moteur FOP de BI Publisher n'envoie pas directement le résultat sur une imprimante laser PCL ou un fichier auu format TXT.

Oracle Documents Cloud Service - Using Upload File REST API

If the Upload File sample given in ODCS documentation is used "as is", we get a http 400 error. The syntax is strict and every blank line must be empty (no space character for instance). If we cust and paste the sample, there are residual space characters which must be removed. So, use this pattern instead: -----1234567890 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="jsonInputParameters" { "parentID": " " } -----1234567890 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="primaryFile"; filename="example.txt" Content-Type: text/plain Hello World! -----1234567890-- instead the original one: -----1234567890 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="jsonInputParameters" { "parentID":"FB4CD874EF94CD2CC1B60B72T0000000000100000001" } -----1234567890 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="primaryFile"; filename="example.txt" Content-Type: text/plain -----1234567890-- Tests can be...

Oracle Sites Cloud Service - Apps

It's possible to add kinds of widgets (named APPS) inside any page of a site built with Oracle Sites Cloud Service (SCS). Any app is materialized by two URL: a Renderer Url which will render any HTML fragment inside an iframe tag at runtime a settings url which will be rendrered at design time in the settings menu. all URLs must be called through https (meaning that the called server has to be ssl enabled) In the following samples, we integrate: a dummy app (a simple html page produced with node.js) which demonstrates the parameteres caried by the Sites Cloud engine when calling the backend server,  a regular Apex report or form,  a custom report which calls a rest api generated by Apex /ORDS Sample node.js server.js below is a sample of parameter values get from a dummy node.js server Main call id=26e45e21-dbb6-4877-9886-482b37213d2f instance=eyJpbnN0YW5jZWlkIjoiQTI0NUNFNUNFNjA5MjE1REZBRTA2RTQyRjExOThBNThFNzc4RDc5NzFDMkIiLCJzaWduZGF0ZSI6IjE0NTAxMDg1M...
