Coverage History dashboard about reportgenerator

[danielpalme]

Hi,

I have two or three solutions for you. You can

1. Create a custom report which generates a HTML file containing only the chart
2. Create a custom report which generates a PNG file showing the chart

If you want to do so, download my sample custom reports:
http://danielpalme.github.io/ReportGenerator/resources/CustomReportTypes.zip
Compile the project and put the DLL next to ReportGenerator.exe
Then you can use the following reporttypes when calling ReportGenerator.exe: PngChart, HtmlChart

If you want to customize the chart or report, you can adjust the plugin code.

Please see also this issue:
#21

See here for an introduction for writing custom reports:

Hope this helps

Thanks for your quick response! Looks like it is just what I want. Let me give it a try and get back to you soon.

Hi,

I tried it and it does work exactly like I wanted it to. The only concern I have is that when we upgrade ReportGenerator in the future I have to remember to place this dll next to the exe again. Is there a way to integrate this into the default package itself?

Other than this, the feature works just as I'd like to! Thanks for that.

I'm thinking about integrating some of these report types into the default set.

Great, I'd +1 that feature for sure! If you need my help, I can also look into a give you a pull request if you want. But I'm guessing that is not a big task.

Just released ReportGenerator 2.4.2 with new report types.
