How to mark report templates as deleted without deleting the templates permanently?
-
Hi sir,
Our application is multi tenant application , each tenant have their own report templates .If client accidently delete any template it will permanently delete using jsreport odata api but how can i mark templates as deleted so that we can restore those templates if needed?.
- Is it possible to add any flag like is_deleted in config file of report folder and while calling restore function is it possible query odata api using this custom flag ?
that means query report folder with is_deleted flag is equal to true?
-
Is modifying the report folder config file with custom fields will affect report rendering performanace?
-
Is Modifiying config file with custom field is right approach?
-
Could you please suggest any solution?
-
There is no out-of-the-box solution for this.
You could implement a custom extension for such soft deletes and restores, but that is quite some work to do.Perhaps you can deal with this at the database level.
-
sorry sir, i dont understand why did you told to implement custom extension ?
-
Also adding a flag is_deleted (ie,boolean variable which will mark tempates as deleted) in the config file of those temporarily deleted templates will cause any issue?
-
Also what do you mean by handling at the database level did you mean store like mongodb (where templates are stored)
do you have any example for custom extension?

I don't know how would you plan to do this exactly... I think it won't work in some simple way. However I don't know fully your scenario.

Yes

As noted in the docs, everything is implemented as extensions in jsreport. Here are the sources
