Works with Node v11.15.0 (https://tecadmin.net/install-nvm-macos-with-homebrew/)

Chromium/Chrome

$ npm install
$ npm run make
$ ./reportsServer templates/test.json dist/test.pdf # for linux users.
$ ./reportsServer-macos templates/test.json dist/test.pdf # for macOS users.
$ ./reportsServer-win.exe templates/test.json dist/test.pdf # for windows users.

PhantomJS

$ cd sane-reports
$ phantomjs reportsServer.js templates/test.json dist/test.pdf

Report will be generated in: dist/test.pdf

Generating dashboard mode (browser) report

$ git clone [email protected]:demisto/sane-reports.git
$ cd sane-reports
$ npm install
$ npm start

Now open browser at: http://localhost:8082

Generating PDF report

$ git clone [email protected]:demisto/sane-reports.git
$ cd sane-reports
$ npm install
$ npm run make
$ npm run production
$ npm run generate-report

This will generate a PDF report in the dist folder. The name of the report will start with report-.

Generate report options:

You can create PDF report with the following command as well:

Chromium/Chrome

./reportsServer <report_template_file> [<output_file> <dist_folder> <orientation> <resourceTimeout> <type> <headerLeftImage> <headerRightImage> <customReportType> <pageSize> <disableTopHeaders> <chromiumPath>]

PhantomJS

phantomjs reportServer.js <report_template_file> [<output_file> <dist_folder> <orientation> <resourceTimeout> <type> <headerLeftImage> <headerRightImage> <customReportType> <pageSize> <disableTopHeaders>]

• report_template_file: The template of the report (JSON format)
• output_file: The name of the generated report (leave empty for default name)
• dist_folder: should be dist
• orientation: The orientation of the report: portrait/landscape (default portrait)
• resourceTimeout: Timeout for generating the report (default is 4000ms)
• type: The report type: pdf or csv (default is pdf)
• headerLeftImage: The image to show at the left side of the report header of each page (base64 or url)
• headerRightImage: The image to show at the right side of the report header of each page (base64 or url)
• customReportType: Custom report type if needed. currently not used.
• pageSize: The report page size to generate. Possible: A4, A3, A5, letter (default A4).
• disableTopHeaders: true or "true" to disable the top headers and show icons in the footer. (default false)
• chromiumPath: a custom chromium or chrome path. The service searches for installed chromium or chrome by order. Default usage by priority: Chromium -> Google Chrome Stable -> Google Chrome -> the default path '/usr/bin/chromium-browser'.

Example:

• npm run production
• npm run make
• ./reportsServer-macos templates/incidentDailyReportTempalte.json dist/incidentDailyReportTempalte.pdf dist portrait 4000 pdf '' '' '' A4 '' '/Applications/Google Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google Chrome'

Running on MacOS Locally:

You can use npm script:

npm run test:macos

Debugging

• Download the mamba-reports.patch
• Apply the patch (In WebStorm: git -> patch -> apply patch...)
• Debug the server and add a breakpoint in the beginning of the method servicereport.go/generatePdfReport
• genereta a PDF report from the UI (web-client)
• when it stops on the breakpoint:
  • refresh the files in Debug/lib/temp (right click -> reload from disk)
  • copy the last json content from the server folder to incidentDailyReportTemplate.json
  • while the project is running (npm start) the page will be auto-reloaded at localhost:8082

To debug the automation/docker image behind sane pdf reports, you can use your own automation with the reports.pdf.script setting (use in the troubleshooting tab).

Alternative: also possible to change the docker image at the automation settings (show filter deprecated automations to see it)

Demo

Reports templates (JSON) examples can be found in the templates folder.

Example reports outputs can be found in the examples folder.

Create your own report template

You can edit existing report templates or create your own template. Report templates are created in JSON format and includes sections. Sections are ordered according to their row and column positions.

Section types: Header, Divider, Date, Image, JSON, Markdown, Table, Text, Bar Chart, Line Chart, Pie Chart, HTML, List, Grouped List, Items Section.

Each section can have its own style (camled case css style: font-size -> fontSize).

Important notice:

HTML sections use dangerouslySetInnerHTML to set the given text as html. This method may cause a security risk, so before using, please validate the source of the text, and use with cautious at your own risk.
