Method Detail

getName

String getName()

The name of this exporter. Should be unique

Returns:

getFriendlyName

String getFriendlyName()

The friendly name of this exporter to display to the user to select from

Returns:

getCriteriaFields

List<Property> getCriteriaFields()

The list of field names that are necessary for this exporter to function properly. For instance, an Order exporter might request a start date and end date for criteria. While this returns a list of Property, only a subset of the available fields on Property are used to build the form. Methods that should not return null:

• property.getName()
• property.getMetadata().getPresentationAttributes().getFriendlyName()
• property.getMetaData().getFieldType()

These methods can be null, but can contain values to further control display:

• property.getMetadata().getLength()
• property.getMetadata().getPresentationAttributes().isLargeEntry()
• property.getMetadata().getPresentationAttributes().getTooltip()
• property.getMetadata().getPresentationAttributes().getRequiredOverride()

For instance, this would be an example of creating start date and end date criteria fields:

 List<Property> criteria = new ArrayList<Property>();
  Property startDate = new Property();
  startDate.setName("startDate");
  startDate.getMetadata().getPresentationAttributes().setFriendlyName("Start Date");
  startDate.getMetadata().setFieldType(SupportedFieldType.DATE);
  criteria.add(startDate);
   
  Property endDate = new Property();
  endDate.setName("endDate");
  endDate.getMetadata().getPresentationAttributes().setFriendlyName("End Date");
  endDate.getMetadata().setFieldType(SupportedFieldType.DATE);
  criteria.add(endDate);
  return criteria;
 
 

Returns:

null if no additional criteria is needed

getType

AdminExporterType getType()

The type of this exporter

Returns:

getFileName

String getFileName()

The file name used in the Content-Disposition header for "attachment"

Returns:

writeExport

void writeExport(javax.servlet.ServletOutputStream out,
                 Map<String,String> params)
                 throws IOException

Throws:
