Why isn't the index increasing In .net core mvc ?

rlaansrl

I see your link
https://playground.jsreport.net/w/admin/kMI4FBmw

.net core code

razor code

{{#each $pdf.pages}}
 {{#if 0}}
   <div style="page-break-before: always;"></div>
 {{/if}}
 <main class="main"> 
   <header class="header">
     Header
   </header>
   <footer class="footer">
       <span>Page {{getPageNumber 0}} of {{getTotalPages ../$pdf.pages}}</span>
   </footer>
 </main>
{{/each}}

I cloned jsreport-dotnet-example-webapp from your github.

index continues to be 0
Only when PdfOperationType merging
It doesn't happen when append prepend.

The shared code of your .net call would make it more clear, but I believe you need to set MergeWholeDocument = true.

Thanks it works very well
But I want to create a toc based on the page created above.
What should I do?
.net core code

var pdfReport = await JsReportMVCService.RenderAsync(new RenderRequest
{

 Template = new Template()
 {
     Content = result,
     Engine = Engine.Handlebars,
     Recipe = Recipe.ChromePdf,
     PdfOperations = new List<PdfOperation>()
     {
         new PdfOperation()
       {
           Template = new Template
           {
                 Content = toc,
                Engine = Engine.Handlebars,
                Recipe = Recipe.ChromePdf
            },
            Type = PdfOperationType.Prepend
         },
         new PdfOperation()
         {
             Type = PdfOperationType.Merge,
             MergeWholeDocument = true,
             Template = new Template
             {
                 Content = header,
                 Helpers = @"
                                 function getPageNumber (pageIndex) {
                                 if (pageIndex == null) {
                                         return ''
                                 }
                                 const pageNumber = pageIndex + 1
                                 return pageNumber
                             }

                             function getTotalPages (pages) {
                                 if (!pages) {
                                     return ''
                                 }
                                 return pages.length
                             }",
                 Engine = Engine.Handlebars,
                 Recipe = Recipe.ChromePdf,
             }
         }
     },
 }

});

Here you can find a demo of ToC in .net core razor webapp
https://github.com/pofider/jsreport-dotnet-example-webapp-toc/blob/master/Controllers/HomeController.cs#L124

Based on this playground
https://playground.jsreport.net/w/admin/tV6sVKbV

However, I am not sure if it is the right approach to have jsreport locally in the .net app. It is quite complex and it looks to me like you should rather have a full-blown jsreport server doing this and you communicate with it using jsreport.Client.
