ಶೇರ್ಪಾಯಿಂಟ್ ರಲ್ಲಿ ಬಾರ್ ಗ್ರಾಫ್ ರಚಿಸಿ

This blog entry describes how to create a bar graph in SharePoint. This works in both WSS and MOSS environments as it only depends upon the data view web part.

The overall approach is as follows:

  1. Create a list or document library that contains the data you want to graph.
  2. Place the associated document library / custom list onto a page and convert it to a data view web part (DVWP).
  3. Modify the DVWP’s XSL to generate HTML that shows as a graph.

ವ್ಯಾಪಾರ ಸನ್ನಿವೇಶ / ಸೆಟಪ್:

I have created a custom list with the standard Title column and one additional column, "Status". This models (very simplistically) an "Authorization For Expense" scenario where the title represents the project and the Status a value from the list of:

  • Proposed
  • In Process
  • Stalled

The objective is to produce an interactive horizontal bar graph that shows these status codes.

I have populated the list and it looks like this:

Create Data View Web Part:

Create the DVWP by adding the custom list to a page (site page in my case) and follow the instructions ಇಲ್ಲಿ (http://paulgalvin.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!1CC1EDB3DAA9B8AA!395.entry).

In addition to simply creating the DVWP, we also need to set the paging property to show all available rows. ನನಗೆ, this looks something like this:

ಚಿತ್ರ

ಈ ಹಂತದಲ್ಲಿ, I always close SPD and the browser. I then re-open the page using the browser. This avoids accidentally mucking up the web part layout on the page.

Modify the XSLT:

It’s now time to modify the XSLT.

I always use visual studio for this. (ನೋಡು ಇಲ್ಲಿ for an important note about intellisense that will help you a lot).

I create an empty project add four new files (replacing the words "Original" and "New" as appropriate):

  • Original.xslt
  • New.xslt
  • Original Params.xml
  • New Params.xml

ಪ್ರಕರಣದಲ್ಲಿ, ಈ ತೋರುತ್ತಿದೆ:

ಚಿತ್ರ

Modify the web part and copy the params and XSL to the "Original" version in Visual Studio.

The objective here is to cause the XSL to transform the results we get back from the DVWP query into HTML that renders as a graph.

ನಿವೃತ್ತಿಗೆ, it helps to first consider what the HTML should look like before we get confused by the insanity that is known as "XSL". (To be clear, the following is simply an example; don’t type it or copy/paste into visual studio. I provide a full blow starting point for that later in the write-up). The following sample graph is rendered as per the HTML immediately following:

Sample Bar Graph

Corresponding HTML:

<HTML>
<ದೇಹ>
<ಕೇಂದ್ರ>
<table width=80%>
<TR><ಟಿಡಿ><ಕೇಂದ್ರ>Horizontal Bar Graph</ಟಿಡಿ></TR>
<TR>
<td align="center">
<table border="1" width=80%>
<TR>
<td width=10%>Open</ಟಿಡಿ>
<ಟಿಡಿ><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border=0 width=50%><ಅನುವಾದ bgcolor = ಕೆಂಪು><ಟಿಡಿ>&nbsp;</ಟಿಡಿ></TR></ಮೇಜು></ಟಿಡಿ>
</TR>
<TR>
<td width=10%>ಮುಚ್ಚಲಾಗಿದೆ</ಟಿಡಿ>
<ಟಿಡಿ><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border=0 width=25%><ಅನುವಾದ bgcolor = ಕೆಂಪು><ಟಿಡಿ>&nbsp;</ಟಿಡಿ></TR></ಮೇಜು></ಟಿಡಿ>
</TR>
<TR>
<td width=10%>Stalled</ಟಿಡಿ>
<ಟಿಡಿ><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border=0 width=25%><ಅನುವಾದ bgcolor = ಕೆಂಪು><ಟಿಡಿ>&nbsp;</ಟಿಡಿ></TR></ಮೇಜು></ಟಿಡಿ>
</TR>
</ಮೇಜು>
</ಟಿಡಿ>
</TR>
</ಮೇಜು>
</ದೇಹ>
</HTML>

I used a dead simple approach to creating my bars by setting the background color of a row to "red".

The take-away here is this: ಕೊನೆಯಲ್ಲಿ, all we are doing is creating HTML with rows and columns.

Template XSLT:

I’ve copied the XSLT that generates a horizontal bar graph. It’s fairly well commented so I won’t add much here except for these notes:

  • I started with the default XSL that SharePoint Designer gave me when I first created the DVWP.
  • I was able to cut this down from SPD’s 657 lines to 166 lines.
  • I didn’t mess around with the parameters XML file (which is separate from the XSL and you’ll know what I mean when you go to modify the DVWP itself; there are two files you can modify). ಹೇಗಾದರೂ, in order to simplify it, I did remove nearly all of them from the XSL. This means that if you want to make use of those parameters, you just need to add their variable definitions back to the XSL. That will be easy since you will have the original XSL variable definitions in your visual studio project.
  • You ought to be able to copy and paste this directly into your visual studio project. ನಂತರ, remove my calls and insert your own calls to "ShowBar".
  • The drill down works by creating an <ಒಂದು href> ಈ ರೀತಿಯ: http://server/List?FilterField1=fieldname&FilterValue1=actualFilterValue. This technique may be of value in other contexts. ಮೊದಲಿಗೆ, I thought I would need to conform to a more complex format: http://server/List/AllItems.aspx?View={guid}&FilterField1=blah&FilterValue1=blah, but in my environment that is not necessary. The List’s URL is passed to us by SharePoint so this is quite easy to generalize.

Concluding Thoughts:

Can This Be Generalized?

I love this graphing concept, but I hate the fact that I have to go in and do so much hand-coding. I’ve given a little thought to whether it can be generalized and I’m optimistic, but I’m also a little fearful that there may be a brick wall somewhere along the path that won’t offer any work-around. If anyone has some good ideas on this, please make a note in the comments or ನನಗೆ ಇಮೇಲ್.

Vertical Graphs:

This is a horizontal bar graph. It’s certainly possible to create a vertical graph. We just need to change the HTML. I would start the same way: Create an HTML representation of a vertical bar graph and then figure out how to get that via XSL. If anyone is interested in that, I could be persuaded to try it out and work out the kinks. If someone has already done that, please let me know and I’ll gladly link to your blog 🙂

I think that challenge with a vertical graph is that the labels for the graph are more difficult to manage, but certainly not impossible.

Field Name Gotcha’s:

There are at least two things to look out for with your field names.

ಪ್ರಥಮ, a field name with a space has to be escaped in the XSL. This will probably be an issue here:

        <XSL:ಬದಲಾಯಿಸಬಹುದಾದ ಹೆಸರು="totalProposed" 
ಆಯ್ಕೆ="count(/dsQueryResponse/Rows/Row[normalize-space(@Status) = 'Proposed'])" />

If your "Status" column is actually named "Status Code" then you need to reference it as "Status_x0020_Code":

   <XSL:ಬದಲಾಯಿಸಬಹುದಾದ ಹೆಸರು="totalProposed" 
ಆಯ್ಕೆ="count(/dsQueryResponse/Rows/Row[normalize-space(@Status_x0020_Code) = 'Proposed'])" />

ಎರಡನೆಯ, and I’m a little fuzzy on this, but you also need to be on the alert for field name changes. If you name your field "Status Code" and then later on, rename it to "AFE Status", the "internal name" does not change. The internal name will still be "Status Code" and must be referenced as "Status_x0020_Code". The "other resources" links may help diagnose and correct this kind of problem.

About that Color:

I picked "red" because it’s pleasing to me at the moment. It would not be a big deal to show different colors so as to provide more than just a visual description of a number, but to also provide a useful KPI. ಉದಾಹರಣೆಗೆ, if the percentage of "stalled" AFE’s is > 10% then show it red, otherwise show it in black. ಬಳಸುವುದು <XSL:ಆಯ್ಕೆ> to accomplish this.

ಶೇರ್ಪಾಯಿಂಟ್ ಒದಗಿಸುವುದಿಲ್ಲ “ಪ್ರವೇಶ ಹೊಂದಿರುವ” ವರದಿಗಳು

ನವೀಕರಿಸಲು 01/28/08: ಈ codeplex ಯೋಜನೆಯನ್ನು ಈ ಸಮಸ್ಯೆಯನ್ನು ಪರಿಹರಿಸುತ್ತದೆ: http://www.codeplex.com/AccessChecker. I have not used it, ಈ ನಿಮ್ಮ ಪರಿಸರದಲ್ಲಿ ತಿಳಿಸಲು ಸಮಸ್ಯೆಯನ್ನು ವೇಳೆ ಆದರೆ ಭರವಸೆಯಂತೆ ಕಂಡುಬರುತ್ತಿದೆ.

ನವೀಕರಿಸಲು 11/13/08: ಜೋಯಲ್ ಒಲೆಸನ್ ಇಲ್ಲಿ ದೊಡ್ಡ ಭದ್ರತಾ ನಿರ್ವಹಣೆ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಉತ್ತಮ ಪೋಸ್ಟ್ ಅನ್ನು ಬರೆದರು: HTTP://www.sharepointjoel.com / ಪಟ್ಟಿಗಳು / ಚಿನ್ನದ / Post.aspx?2D183c%%% 2D8320% 2D4fc2 ಪಟ್ಟಿ = 0cd1a63d 2Dba5369008acb&ID=113. It links to a number of other useful resources.

Forum users and clients often ask a question along these lines: "How do I generate a list of all users with access to a site" or "How can I automatically alert all users with access to list about changes made to the list?"

There is no out of the box solution for this. If you think about it for a moment, it’s not hard to understand why.

SharePoint security is very flexible. There are at least four major categories of users:

  • Anonymous users.
  • SharePoint Users and Groups.
  • Active Directory users.
  • ಗೃಹಾಧಾರಿತ ದೃಢೀಕರಣ ರಚಿಸುತ್ತದೆ (FBA) ಬಳಕೆದಾರರು.

The flexibility means that from a security perspective, any given SharePoint site will be dramatically different from another. In order to generate an access list report, one needs to ascertain how the site is secured, query multiple different user profile repositories and then present it in a useful fashion. That’s a hard problem to solve generically.

How are organizations dealing with this? I’d love to hear from you in comments or ಇಮೇಲ್.
