The FlexmonsterReact.Pivot component

The FlexmonsterReact.Pivot component embeds Flexmonster into a React application.

The simplest component usage

To add an empty pivot table, specify the <FlexmonsterReact.Pivot> tag without any props:

<FlexmonsterReact.Pivot/>

Available props

All the FlexmonsterReact.Pivot props are equivalent to the parameters of the new Flexmonster() API call. Check out the full list of available props.

Note that FlexmonsterReact.Pivot supports only Flexmonster-specific props. Any other props are not supported, including id, className, or style.

Passing props to FlexmonsterReact.Pivot

Props can be passed as hardcoded values or as variables:

Hardcoded value

To pass a prop as a hardcoded value, enclose the value in single or double quotes:

<FlexmonsterReact.Pivot
  report="https://cdn.flexmonster.com/reports/report.json"
/>

In this example, the prop value is a string, but number and boolean values can be passed similarly (see an example).

You can also pass objects and functions using curly braces (see an example).

Variable

To pass a prop as a variable, enclose the variable in curly braces:

<FlexmonsterReact.Pivot
  report={report}
/>

Flexmonster and React lifecycle hooks

React lifecycle methods and the useEffect() hook are not synchronized with Flexmonster's lifecycle. However, you can get information about Flexmonster's state using its events.

To track the initialization of Flexmonster, use the ready or the reportcomplete event. Changes in Flexmonster's state (e.g., a report is changed) can be tracked via other Flexmonster events.

Example

The following example demonstrates how different FlexmonsterReact.Pivot props can be specified:

  width="100%"
  height="500"
  toolbar="true"
  report="https://cdn.flexmonster.com/reports/report.json"
  customizeCell={customizeCellFunction}
  beforetoolbarcreated={toolbar => {
    toolbar.showShareReportTab = true;
  }}
  shareReportConnection={{
    url: "https://olap.flexmonster.com:9500"
 }}
/>
