Is it possible to inside MyReport.view.php create a button that will export the same report in excel (MyReportExcel.view.php) ? Currently i have to call an action of laravel, so that i initiate a new MyReport run all the queries again and then export it, but i dont want to do that since i already am displaying all the needed data inside MyReport.view.php.
Since our exports are all server side the report must be run again to generate data for exporting. But there's a Cache package which could help you run the report faster using cached results if there's no change in report's setup:
But i am using the same data as inside Web and I am inside ReportItself, i can see that you have a method called Export and ExportToExcell, can't i run it inside the view? Maybe a future improvement, becouse you always want to export the data you will show on web, at least in a .xls format
Like I said, most of our exports (pdf, excel, csv, etc) are server-side, i.e it needs request back to server and server processing. There're some client-side exporting Datagrid package's DataTables widget:

You can use that if you only want to export a datastore. Rgds,
