RVEX - News: I have released version .91 which adds XML output for simple views using the response hierarchy. The subroutine is "type2" a


I have released version .91 which adds XML output for simple views using the response hierarchy. The subroutine is "type2" and you merely specify viewtype=type2 in the URL, adding any optional parameters. See the screenshot page for a sample output.

I have tested this on a view with one response column (that's all you're supposed to use) and one or two columns with fields from the main document. If you have several values from your respone that you want to show up, then just use a formula for that column and properly nested XML and it should work. See the notes in the type2 subroutine of the rvex agent for further details and a sample URL.

Type2 doesn't handle categories, but it should work for simple views. I'll see if I can add the category handling to type2 or another new type later. Hopefully anyone who needs categories and response docs in a hierarchy can create a view handled by type1.

No volunteers have been forthcoming. I haven't started on the JSON version yet, but if anyone would like to, it should be a straightforward extension of the type1 and type2 subs already built.

Thanks for trying RVEX. Your suggestions and help are most welcome.


In this field you can enter the actual news.

You can use the rich text editor for rich text formating. You can also enter HTML to embed objects, e.g. to embed a YouTube video or a screenshot of the project. In this case use '[' and ']' to mark the passthrough HTML as such.

Please note that the first time you use the new UI your description is converted from rich text to MIME. You might want to copy and paste the raw plain text from the old UI in the new UI so that you don't loose information.
