  Unable to replicate it. Please try to follow my steps so we can isolate the issue.

  Running jsreport docker image docker run -p 5488:5488 jsreport/jsreport:2.1.1 Create template test with xlsx recipe and content {{#xlsxAdd "xl/worksheets/sheet1.xml" "worksheet.sheetData[0].row"}} <row> <c t="inlineStr"><is><t>Hello world</t></is></c> <c><v>11</v></c> </row> {{/xlsxAdd}} {{{xlsxPrint}}} Create client which remotely render report const client = require('jsreport-client')('http://localhost:5488') const fs = require('fs') async function run() { const report = await client.render({ template: { name: 'test' } }) report.pipe(fs.createWriteStream('out.xlsx')) } run().catch(console.error)

  The output file out.xlsx can be open in the ms excel.

  Unfortunately there is bug in current jsreportonline and async reports doesn't work there.
  We will make sure it works in the next release.

  It'll be nice if someone responded. If it can't be done, let me know. I don't want to remove this plugin because of lack of technical support and horrible Customer service.

  It is very helpful to know you can restart the service through the service manager (or the studio). It's certainly much more straightforward and reliable for a deploy. Thank you much!

  I fixed it!
  Although I don't know why what I did worked.

  Turns out it was something with my English template. I made a new template and literally copied and pasted all the info from my original EN template to the my new one and changed the template ID in my app and it started working. If I change the ID back the old EN template I get those errors. So somewhere along the way something happened to that template, but it's not in the markup since I copied all that into the new template and that works fine. It must be something else somewhere in files that we don't touch.
  Weird.

  What other parameters can be set?

  i think it is possible to define any other parameter that you see in properties of a template, it is not possible to add in docs the full list because jsreport is composed from extensions and the properties available are always dynamic depending on the extensions you use. when seeing a template from studio you can click on "API" button to get a overview of each property available in your installation.

  Can I default the engine to use JSRender, rather than having to set it on the properties of the child template?

  yes, you can set from child template call that the engine should be always jsrender.

  <h1>this is parent</h1> {#child child @template.engine=jsrender @template.recipe=html}

  If i keep the credentials in script files, this can be accessable by many ways by the jsreport API.

  You can store credentials in a file and read it from script. You can pass credentials through environment variables and get them from script. The credentials can be also included in the request itself and don't need to be stored.

  Pass a basic authentication header with a base64 hash in ajax call on my page will give all chances of someone bad intentionated to have access to sensitive data at jsreport server.

  We also support token based authentication https://jsreport.net/learn/authentication#token-based-authentication-using-an-authorization-server

  Another option is to avoid exposing jsreport to the public. Run it behind your application and let the browser client be authenticated first on your server before you send request to jsreport.

  The error is hidden in the message
  error while loading shared libraries: libfreetype.so.6: cannot open shared

  Based on your distribution, you need to add to your docker image something like

  sudo apt-get install libfreetype6 libfreetype6-dev sudo apt-get install libfontconfig1 libfontconfig1-dev

  However it is still a mystery to me why it did work before when running stand-alone and not with express.

  the same for me, as i say it depends on how the project is organized, so it is difficult to me to guess what was the problem.

  The issue with the reserved names only applies when you use the helper names as function names. If you can use the registerHelper function directly, you can use reserved names as helper names. This feels more natural for the template code.

  good, as long as you don't get a weird error it is fine.

  I would also like to put these helper function in a separate file, to make it easier to reuse them in different templates.

  you can put the functions in an asset and then reference them in the helpers section. you just need to read the docs to know how it works.

  Using this for keeping the switch value is taken from an example for adding a switch / case construct to handlebars:
  https://github.com/wycats/handlebars.js/issues/927
  Would there be another way to do this?

  no clue, i did not dive too depth in the logic, but if it is recommended by another handlebars users i guess you are fine, no need to find other way.

  There could be another file in the root of data folder that is causing the problem.

  Please zip your data folder and send it to my email. Remove the secret information.
  Thank you.

  Jsreport Template

  hi! what we call template is a file in which you can add some html, css, js to design a report using web technologies (in most cases, jsreport is not limited to web technologies but it depends on the recipe that you use in your template), this is really powerful because it lets you create report layouts using familiar technologies.

  however i think that you are looking for pre-built layouts, right? right now we don't have a catalog of pre-built layouts to share, we just offer some samples when you start jsreport the first time, maybe in future we can have something like that but currently we are focusing all our efforts in making jsreport better and expanding what is possible to do with it.

  No afterRender function but I am merging 3 other templates with it.
  It got resolved in a weird way. If I run npm install and build-deploy all from command prompt rather than jetBrains IDE, it worked and no more timeout errors.
