Export setting

In normal export command you could set export option like "dataStores" or setting like "useLocalTempFolder" together in the first parameter.

$optionAndSetting = [
    "dataStores" => ...,
    "useLocalTempFolder" => true,
];
$report->run()
->exportToExcel($optionAndSetting)
// ->exportToCSV($optionAndSetting)
->toBrowser("myreport.xlsx");

With template export you could set export setting using the second parameter.

$setting = [
    "useLocalTempFolder" => true,
];
$report->run()
->exportToExcel($template, $setting)
// ->exportToXLSX($template, $setting)
// ->exportToODS($template, $setting)
->toBrowser("myreport.xlsx");

useLocalTempFolder #

By default export uses system temporary directory to save temp files. If you set "useLocalTempFolder" = true, a "tmp" directory in the current report direction would be created and used instead. Since version 10.0.0, you could set "useLocalTempFolder" to be a path to any directory to be used as a temporary one.

$setting = [
    "useLocalTempFolder" => "../../temp", // a relative or an absolute path
];
$report->run()
->exportToExcel($template, $setting)
...

autoDeleteTempFile (version >= 10.0.0) #

Be default export temporary files are generated and kept in temporary directory. You could choose to delete them after export finishes with "autoDeleteTempFile" = true.

$setting = [
    "useLocalTempFolder" => "../../temp",
    "autoDeleteTempFile" => true
];
$report->run()
->exportToExcel($template, $setting)
