HTMLReportGenerator

Allows users to create a basic web report of vertically-stacked elements using the geometry and selected attributes from features. HTML output is stored in the html_content attribute for easily writing out to an HTML page using the HTML writer. Supported elements include Text, Tables, Charts (Bar, Line, and Pie), Maps featuring a variety of basemap providers (Esri Leaflet, Mapbox Leaflet, and Google Maps). Styling uses Twitter bootstrap CSS. The output of this transformer links to libraries and CSS files hosted via CDN (Content Delivery Network), so outputs require Internet connectivity to render certain features such as maps and charts.

This output of this transformer is designed to be fed into the HTMLLayouter for the creation of pages with more sophisticated bootstrap grid layouts.

Input Ports

All input is supplied through a single port. Multiple features can be used to create a single output feature storing a single output HTML page in the html_content attribute.

Editing Transformer Parameters

Using a set of menu options, transformer parameters can be assigned by referencing other elements in the workspace. More advanced functions, such as an advanced editor and an arithmetic editor, are also available in some transformers. To access a menu of these options, click beside the applicable parameter. For more information, see Transformer Parameter Menu Options.

Defining Values

There are several ways to define a value for use in a Transformer. The simplest is to simply type in a value or string, which can include functions of various types such as attribute references, math and string functions, and workspace parameters. There are a number of tools and shortcuts that can assist in constructing values, generally available from the drop-down context menu adjacent to the value field.

Dialog Options - Tables

Transformers with table-style parameters have additional tools for populating and manipulating values.
