New report generation process
Hello.
I installed the plugin but have some trouble understanding how I can generate a new report.
Should one follow the instructions listed here: https://github.com/ckan/ckanext-report#creating-a-report, i.e.:
- Write python code
- Create an .html template
- Register the report
- Actually generate the report using
paster --plugin=ckanext-report .....
command?
Isn't there an option to generate a report through the CKAN ui?
Not all users know how to write python code or have access to the cli, thus this process seems like an overkill..
The UI has a refresh button for regenerating the data for the report which does the same as the cli command. But otherwise the new report needs to be programmed like the instructions say.
