lz_FpReport
lz_FpReport is a banded reporting tool.
It was designed from zero, to be able to run on a headless webserver, with minimal dependencies. An important use-case was a Linux server running in a container without X libraries installed. Creating a report is just placing squares with contents on a page, usually based on a data loop. This can be done entirely in-memory, and does not need a display or GUI.
Reports can be created entirely in code, or they can be read from a definition file. The default shipped file uses JSON as the format to store the report definition. The reports can also be designed visually, using a designer. A stand-alone designer exists, as well as the possibility to design a report within the Lazarus IDE.
Once the report is created, it can be saved to disk, or rendered. Rendering is the act of creating visual output.
Various renderers have been implemented:
