I am using Jaspersoft iReport & Jasperserver,
I want to take many input from user in Jasperserver & using that values,want to generate dynamic query mysql at back end in server to show report.
You can use JasperReports Server's input controls to populate your query. You can view documentation on the JasperForge site at http://community.jaspersoft.com/documentation?version=5218 - look for the JasperReports Server User Guide, or if you have purchased the professional edition, you can view it through the support portal at http://community.jaspersoft.com/documentation?version=5218.

Currently in my work I started using ReportServer, I researched and apparently the way to create reports here is through other tools like JaspeReport, is this so?
I also have the need to generate a template (or background) that will change in this report, how is this done? Should I do it in JasperReport or ReportServer can do it?
JasperStudio by tibco is typically used to create a Jasper report. ReportServer is a BI server with which you can use different report formats (Jasper, Birt, Crystal) together in one server. At https://reportserver.net/en/documentation/ you will find a comprehensive documentation and at https://forum.reportserver.net/ a user forum for ReportServer questions.
I am currently working on web application based on Angular JS,HTML5. I have a report section on the same where i am displaying the report data through API calls.
I feel that displaying reports through API call is not the best practice so i did some research and came across TIBCO Jasper reports and its looking fine till now.
What i have done till now is
Installed Jaspersoft Studio in my local machine.
Connected the same to my DB and generated JRXML file.
Uploaded the JRXML file to jasper server and generated reports from DB.
What i need to do is
I see i can generate reports in various formats from jasper server like pdf, excel etc.. How do i integrate this to my web page?
Please assist me on this and share your thoughts. Thanks in advance.
Are you using the community or professional version? If you are using the professional version, you can use their Visualize.js library to access your reports from a web application. We have had success integrating Jasper reports into our Angular app, though we've found it to be pretty buggy and it has required several workarounds on our part.
We started by creating an Angular service that handles all the communication with Visualize/Jasper. Once you get all the service plumbing done, it's just a matter of creating an empty DIV tag with an ID and passing that ID to the Visualize function that generates the report. Visualize will handle the REST request to the Jasper server and automatically inject the JS and HTML returned into your empty DIV.
You can find more info on Visualize (including API docs) here:

You can integrate JasperServer into your web app using iFrames with their HTTP API. This would allow you to reuse the UI that is part of JasperServer. It is possible to customize the look and feel of this UI using themes. More info here:

I know how to design jasper report in jaspersoft iReport Designer.
I dont know how the designed report can bring to front end (web browser).
Please send me related links.
I know little bit JSP.
There are many ways to integrate your reports with your web application.
Refer this link
Also Refer this link
Refer this link for integration using java web application.
The simple way is to embed the jasperserver page in your web application using iFrame tag.
Note: One major thing is that you have to deploy your reports to your JasperServer
I just downloaded Pentaho Business Analytics to try its reporting features on a Windows 8 machine. Currently I'm trying to use Report Designer to create a report for a MongoDB datasource, so following the guidelines from the book, I'm using these steps:
Select the Data Tab.
Right Click on the Data Sets item.
Select MongoDB from the menu.
Click on the plus button to create a query
And that is the point where things differ from the book, because I get this form:
According to the book, I should be able to enter a host name, port, and have the option to select a collection, but the form I get doesn't allow me that. Does anyone face this issue, or know how to fix it?
The options are hidden; stretch the window!
I am using jasper reports in my project to generate html reports. But the generated reports are static. Now we want to add some interactive features in it, like simple sorting and searching of columns. This is preferably to be done the client side. How can this be achieved ? So far I have tried to embed jquery into the generated report with no luck. Does jasper report provide such kind of functionality?
Use parameters and re compile the report every time you want to filter the data.
With your meaning of the word "interactive", nope that is not possible. A report is only a report - a presentation medium that shows data in such manner that is required by the business rule. You can format data here. You can stylize it, add image and what not. A client side application is probably what you want.
Well, your exact requirement can be achieved if you publish the Jasper Reports on the Jasper Server. Once published, all your reports become interactive (For Charts, you must use the PRO charts and not the basic HTML charts but for tables, it works automatically.)
Once you publish it on the Jasper Server, the features that you get are:
Sort button with various types
Export the Report to many formats (PDF, XML, etc - more than 10).
Zoom IN and Zoom Out.
Bubble for your charts making them interactive, etc.
Yes, interactivity is possible in Jasper Reports, but the thing is that you need a Jasper Server Pro or Enterprise version for achieving this. If you are using a community version, it is impossible to create interactive reports.
