local copy (which works fine) imported into JSReportOnline - results in errors



  • Newbie question here. I was using the downloaded version of JSReport for a while. I just started with JSReportOnline. When I take my first project (that is working fine) and export it from my local install and upload it online, I'm getting errors. I'm assuming it might have something to do with changes brought about by version 3 being released.

    Error messages being shown below:

    Error while executing templating engine. Missing helper: "asset"

    What am I missing?

    hi @John-Backer

    jsreportonline is still running with jsreport 2.11.0, so if you import entities from v3 (your local) that use new features (like the asset helper) it is not going to work because the jsreport version in jsreportonline is not compatible.

    we are working in making the jsreportonline move to v3, but it will take more time, in the meantime you can choose to develop your template in a way that is compatible with both versions (v2 and v3), in this particular case you can use the old asset syntax {#asset } (described here) to have the template compatible with both v2 and v3, or if you see it is too much problem to support both version you can just wait until jsreportonline is v3 compatible, we will work on that.



  • Just adding you can get to the v2 and jsreportonline documentation when selecting the 2.11.0 version in the learn section version switch.

  • Thanks for your help - this got me over that hump!
