Hello,

I'm using jsreport with node, and I'm trying to show load a jsreport on PDF format with an image on it. Here are the code I'm writing:

let clientLogoPath = path.join(__dirname, "../public/images/temp/client_logo.jpg");
jsreport.init().then(() => {

jsreport.render({
  template: {
    content: `Report`,
    engine: 'handlebars',
    recipe: 'chrome-pdf'
  },
}).then((out)  => {
  out.stream.pipe(res);
}).catch((e) => {
  res.end(e.message);
}); }).catch((e) => {
console.error(e.stack)
process.exit(1)})

When I try to Run the following error occur:

Error when evaluating engine handlebars for template anonymous
Asset "Full Path image) not found.

I'm just starting with jsreport, can anyone please guide me through?

hi @brunomanguinho, assets by default search in the jsreport store, if you want to read a file from the filesystem you need to enable the external file access, add this to your jsreport options (either your configuration file or the options you pass when calling jsreport({ /* options here */ }):

{
  extensions: {
    assets: {
      allowedFiles: "**/*.*",
      searchOnDiskIfNotFoundInStore: true
    }
  }
}

after it the assets will be allowed to read from the filesystem and will find your image.
