Aparna Bathula

here my code:
jsreport.render({
template: {

                                    // content: fs.readFileSync('../test.html'),
                                    content: "Hello world {{#sayLoudly this.name}}",
                                    helpers: "function sayLoudly(str) { return str.toUpperCase(); }",
                                    engine: "jsrender",
                                    // recipe: "html"
                                    recipe: "phantom-pdf",
                                    data: { name: "jsreport" }
                                },

                            }).then(function(out){
                                console.log("*********************************",out)
                                // out.stream.pipe(fs.createWriteStream('../reports.pdf'));
                                var read=fs.createWriteStream('report.pdf')
                                out.stream.pipe(read);
                            });

Please take a look to documentation, for the basic example
https://jsreport.net/learn/adapting-jsreport#rendering

jsreport.init().then(function () {     
   jsreport.render({
       template: {
           content: '<h1>Hello {{:foo}}</h1>',
           engine: 'jsrender',
           recipe: 'phantom-pdf'
        },
        data: {
            foo: "world"
        }
    }).then(function(resp) {
     // write report buffer to a file 
     fs.writeFileSync('report.pdf', resp.content)    
   });
}).catch(function(e) {
  console.log(e)
})

yes, your code is fine.

About the error Unhandled rejection TypeError: Error during rendering report: string.match is no t a function, you are getting the error because it seems like you are using handlebars syntax in your html content but you are trying to render it with the jsrender engine, so try to keep the syntax in your template and the engine input value in the same way, either using handlebars or jsrender.
