BOSDK.gem

A JRuby wrapper for the Business Objects SDK

• The Business Objects Java SDK
• An environment variable 'BOE_JAVA_LIB' pointing to the Business Objects Java SDK directory
• JRuby >= 1.4.0

require 'bosdk'
include BOSDK
session = EnterpriseSession.new('cms', 'Administrator', '')

stmt = "SELECT TOP 10 * FROM CI_SYSTEMOBJECTS WHERE SI_KIND='User'"
session.query(stmt).each do |obj|
  puts obj.path
end

session.disconnect

Alternatively you can use the #connect closure.

require 'bosdk'
BOSDK.connect('cms', 'Administrator', '') do |session|
  stmt = "SELECT TOP 10 * FROM CI_SYSTEMOBJECTS WHERE SI_KIND='User'"
  session.query(stmt).each do |obj|
    puts obj.path
  end
end

The library ships with an extension to the standard irb shell that connects you to a cms and gives you a handful of helpful shortcuts.

connect(cms, username, password, options = Hash.new)

Creates a new EnterpriseSession and binds it to @boe.

connected?

Tests whether @boe is connected to a cms.

disconnect

Disconnects @boe from the cms.

query(stmt)

Runs the provided query on @boe and returns the resulting InfoObject array.

open_webi(docid)

Opens the specified InfoObject using a ReportEngine and returns a handle to the WebiInstance. It also creates the following instance variables: @doc, @objs and @vars. @doc is a handle to the WebiInstance, @objs is an alias for @doc.objects and @vars is an alias for @doc.variables.

objects

Shortcut to @objs which is an alias for @doc.objects

variables

Shortcut to @vars which is an alias for @doc.variables
