Indigo DRS Technology
Indigo Scape Data Reporting System (DRS) comprises
of the Report Designer Tools and the separate Report
Engine .NET reusable software component library. The
Indigo DRS Report Designer creates the reports and the
Report Engine renders the reports in HTML and PDF for
use in your .NET applications and / or websites.
Report Definition Language (RDL)
The Indigo Scape DRS Data Reporting System uses Indigo
DRS RDL (Report Definition Language) which is an XML
vocabulary for Rapid Report Development (RRD) using
a flexible machine readable Markup Language to define
and describe Report structure, elements, functionality,
content and data.
Indigo DRS Report Definition Language represents a
standard for creating complex and interchangeable reports
between Indigo DRS systems and also maximises content
reuse and modularity. Fully modular design allows common
sections of the report to be included as Sub Reports.
Reusable Reporting Platform
Data Report Engine .NET Component SDK is a reusable
software reporting platform that renders and outputs
reports created by the separate Indigo DRS Report Designer.
The Report Engine component library can be used to generate
and output reports for applications and / or websites
in the .NET framework using Indigo DRS RDL (Report Definition
Language).
Report Designer Tools
The Report Designer can quickly create advanced reports
rich in content with many options for styling, formatting
and customisation. Tables, charts and graphs can be
added to the report effortlessly allowing complex data
to be presented in a visual and meaningful format with
the minimum of effort.
In addition to the Report Designer, Indigo DRS also
includes a suite of powerful Report Management Tools
and utilities to assist with the design, development
and implementation of reports and the querying of data.
Basic Concepts
HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language) is the standard markup
language used to create web content. XQuery is a query
and functional programming language that queries and
transforms collections of structured and unstructured
data, usually in the form of XML data.
XSLT (Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations)
is a language for transforming XML documents into other
XML documents or other formats such as HTML for web
pages or plain text.
IronPython can use the .NET Framework and Python libraries,
and other .NET languages can use Python code just as
easily.
Indigo DRS brings these technologies together to create
an advanced reporting and document generation platform
that is highly compatible and requires no additional
components, software or hardware upgrades.
XQuery / XPath
XQuery contains a superset of XPath expression syntax
to address specific parts of an XML document. The language
is based on the XQuery and XPath Data Model (XDM) which
uses a tree-structured model of the information content
of an XML document.
XQuery is used to query XML Data Sources adding content
to the report with queries, rules, paragraphs, charts
and tables. Report Rules can also be applied to manage
how report content is displayed.
XSL Transformations
XSLT (Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations)
is a language for transforming XML documents into other
XML documents or other formats such as HTML for web
pages or plain text.
Indigo DRS implements XSLT and is designed for use
as part of XSL, which is a stylesheet language for XML.
In addition to XSLT, XSL includes an XML vocabulary
for specifying formatting. XSL specifies the styling
of an XML document by using XSLT to describe how the
document is transformed into another XML document that
uses the formatting vocabulary.
Python Scripting
In addition to XQuery the Reporting Engine can use
IronPython an open-source implementation of the Python
programming language which is tightly integrated with
the .NET Framework.
IronPython can use the .NET Framework and Python libraries,
and other .NET languages can use Python code just as
easily. Python can reference external .NET libraries
to include additional functionality in the Report. Python
scripting can also be used to query Report Data and
create Report Data Contexts and Report Rules.
Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning*
Indigo DRS Data Reporting Engine (DRE) can use Python
for Machine Learning / AI and Statistical Modelling.
An optional add-in software component for Indigo DRS
facilitates the use of the Accord .NET Framework for
Machine Learning and enhances the presentation and formatting
of data making it suitable for enhanced reporting.
SQL Queries
Using IronPython and the System Data namespace Indigo
DRS can run Structured Query Language (SQL) statements
to create, maintain and retrieve data from a relational
database. SQL queries can also be used to create Report
Data Contexts and Report Rules.
Data Mapping, Filtering and Sorting
Data Filtering is the process of choosing a smaller
part of a Data Set and using that subset for viewing
or analysis. Data Sorting is the process that involves
rearranging the data into some meaningful order to make
it easier to understand, analyze or visualize.
Report Data Filters can be applied to Report Data Tables
and Report Charts allowing data to be filtered and sorted
by Data Columns using rules to filter and sort as required.
Data Source Mapping can be used to map data and add
additional custom Data Columns to a Data Table using
formulas, expressions and queries.
Expression Evaluation
The Report Engine can evaluate complex mathematical
equations and formulas allowing scientific, engineering,
finance and mathematical expressions to be calculated.
Report Designer Tools features an Expression Editor
which includes common functions, constants and scientific
units allowing formulas and equations to be evaluated
and used in the report.
Report Data Contexts
Report Data Contexts are used to drive and build report
output content and allows the consolidation and integration
of data from multiple different sources and types such
as API's, websites, databases and data files.
Data Contexts can be applied to specific Report Elements
or be shared named Data Contexts reusable throughout
the report.
Context types can be XQuery, Python, XML, CSV, JSon,
XLSX, HTML, MS SQL, MySQL, MDB, ODBC and OLEDB Data
Sources that can be read and used in the report.
Report Rules
Report Rules are conditional XQuery or Python expressions
that determine if report content is enabled and displayed
in the output build. Rule based queries return True
or False and can query the Report Data Source and other
Report Data Contexts. Report Rules are useful for controlling
the flow and visibility of report content.
For example, certain sections of a common report may
only be relevant for a particular type of product or
customer. Report Rules allow content to be controlled
by switching it on or off depending on certain conditions
in the Report Data Source or Data Context.
Report Sub Reporting
Sub Reporting makes it possible for a report to contain
other reports in subsections of the main report. These
reports are called Sub Reports and allow report content
to be modularised and shared between reports and even
other Sub Reports.
Sub Reports can be used if report content is duplicated,
reusable or common to other reports. Sub Reporting improves
report performance, maintenance, development and deployment.
Sub Reports can also be encrypted to protect report
assets and intellectual property.
Report Table of Contents (TOC)
The Report Table of Contents is used to navigate report
content and can be included in report output builds.
The Table of Contents (TOC) are automatically generated
from the report structure and elements with options
for styling and indexing.
Report CSS
Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a style sheet language
used for describing the look and formatting of a document
written in a markup language such as HTML. CSS is designed
primarily to enable the separation of document content
from document presentation, including elements such
as the layout, colors, and fonts.
Indigo DRS uses CSS style sheets extensively improving
content accessibility, providing more flexibility and
control in the specification of presentation characteristics,
enabling multiple HTML pages to share formatting by
specifying the relevant CSS in a separate CSS file,
and reduce complexity and repetition in the structural
content.
PDF Security, Encryption, Permissions and Certificates
Indigo's powerful Report Engine can output documents
in PDF format with advanced security options to protect
intellectual property by password protecting and encrypting
documents.
Report content can also be restricted with permissions
and certificates can be added to the digital file to
ensure content is not tampered or interfered with. This
is ideal for sensitive or important legal documents
which need to be protected from interference.
Report Templates and Fragment Libraries
Report Template Management helps build new reports
from pre-existing designs and layouts enabling the rapid
design, development and publishing of report content.
Report Fragment Libraries help build new reports from
pre-existing designs and layouts in the form of Report
Fragments.
Report Management and Publishing Tools
Report Management and Publishing Tools enables the
publishing of report content to multiple locations in
one operation.
Report Packaging and Deployment
The File Package and Deployment Manager is a tool for
deploying multiple files into a compressed ZIP File
with the option to encrypt the packaged files using
AES 256 Advanced Encryption. Reports can be packaged
and deployed rapidly and report assets protected with
encryption with this powerful tool.
Report Licensing Entitlement*
Report Licensing Entitlement (RLE) allows the use
and distribution of reports to be governed and controlled
with a powerful licensing system. Flexible licensing
terms allow reports to be distributed with conditions
tied to hardware, users and infrastructure thus maximising
control, distribution and profitability.
Report Licensing is an optional feature that requires
a separate application licensing entitlement to be purchased
for the Report Designer Tools!
Data Security, Encryption and Password Management
The Password Management Tool allows passwords to be
securely stored in an encrypted data file. The Advanced
Encryption System (AES) 256 is a symmetrical encryption
algorithm that uses a 256-bit encryption key. It is
accepted by the U.S. and Canadian governments as the
most secure way to store sensitive data.
With AES-256 bit encryption you can be assured that
you will be the only one who can access your critical
information.
