Description Alvaro Soliverez 2013-09-24 17:31:29 UTC

It would be nice to be able to export reports as report definition files.

As I finish projects, I'd like to reuse existing reports, importing the ones I created in previous files.
It is possible to import a report definition file, but there is no option to do that.

I was able to export it by unzipping the file copying the contents of the <planreportdefinition> tags, and then import it with the "Open report definition file" option.

If you can point me to similar code, I could give it a shot at implementing this feature.

Reproducible: Always

Meh, collected some info and pointers some weeks ago, seems I lost all that in the meantime. Will have to do again.
In short, there is no real similar code yet. Reproduced at least your workaround and that way learned about the import dialog, which I did not know about before. Someone else on #calligra also showed interest in that feature recently. So should be definitely added.
Getting back to C++ these weeks, so hopefully soon more on that.
