Activating the Reporting Search
CentraSite supports design-time and run-time reporting searches to display information of the registry objects as portlets in the Welcome page of the Business UI.
CentraSite includes many built-in portlets that you can use to perform the design-time or run-time reporting search. However, if you need to display information that is not provided by a built-in portlet, you can create a custom reporting search to display the custom portlet against the built-in portlets.
In order to create a custom reporting search, the user must have good knowledge of XQuery language.
In the following sections, we demonstrate a sample named TopXAPIsByAPIKeys that illustrates how a custom reporting search can be set up in the CentraSite Business UI. The sample extends the Add New Portlet dialog and presents a screen that prompts for the data feed to be rendered in the new portlet. After confirming the data feed, the appropriate search results are rendered in the newly created portlet Top N APIs with Keys.
You may use this sample as a guideline, adapting it and renaming it to suit your individual requirements.
To add a custom reporting search in CentraSite, you must perform the following steps.
