How to send parameters through querystring from client to jsreport template so that in 'beforeRender' we can get the querystring and use as parameter for API call or for any DB query.

Thanks for your quick reply as always. That worked well.

mqsql installation;
npm install mysql

code:

var mysql = require('mysql');

var con = mysql.createConnection({
    host: "server-name",
    user: "user-name",
    password: "password",
    database: "sample",
    port: "3306",
});

function beforeRender(request, response, done) {
    con.connect(function(err) {
        if (err) throw err;
        con.query('select name,value from tblparameter', function(err, result, fields) {
            if (err) throw err;
            request.data = {
                config: result
            };
            done();
        });
    });
}

I understand the jsreport supports mssql, mongodb and postgreSQL for template stores, saving jsreport entities.

Is it possible to just fetch data from mysql database and display in report as pdf or html based on recipe selection ?

Thanks Jan for your quick reply. Perfect. Service is running.

I am new to jsreport and exploring its features. How to run jsreport as service in linux server. The npm installation commands 'jsreport start' is working. But I would like to run it as a service so that jsreport is always running in linux box.
