Ideas how to show package baseline information in HTML reports

[PeterHeintz]

I want to show package baseline information in html reports. The easiest way I found was creating a “ModelView” element on a diagram having a SQL query doing the job.
The problem with that is that the diagram element does not auto-scale and so the html pages might not show all what is relevant.
Has anyone of you ideas how to achieve that, without doing too much EA and html scripting?

Hey Pete,


I just read a different post here where someone suggested using a "Package as List" element in a different situation. That should work.

Drag the package that has baselines onto a diagram and select "Package as List."

Open its properties and replace the query with something like

Code: (SQL) [Select]

select Version, DocDate, Notes from t_document
where DocType='Baseline'
and ElementID='' // package GUID goes here, it's in the query when the List element is created
order by DocDate desc
The element will now show the baselines associated with the selected package.

I can't seem to change the column widths but it does auto-update when you close-and-reopen the diagram, so it might be suitable for your needs.

HTH,

Thank you Uffe!
This is what I am already doing, because it just creates a <<ModelView>> class what I did just another way around.
