I need an Heatmap chart for my oracle APEX application. I can see two products here "Anychart" and "Anychart for Oracle APEX". So which product should I use for Heatmaps in Oracle APEX5
Since APEX uses AnyChart licensed charts I was hoping the heatmap that is available in the AnyChart flash maps package would be available in the APEX charts wizard. It is not however as Oracle apparently did not buy all of the AnyChart Flash Map package from information found in the link below.
https://community.oracle.com/thread/1099149
In fact it would be a violation to to try and implement the heatmap from that package in APEX from this response from Oracle on the subject.
"Any attempt to unbundle the AnyChart Flash Chart Component from an Oracle product, or to use the AnyChart Flash Chart Component outside of the Oracle product will be in violation of this license and will result in the immediate termination of this license."
I know this is not an answer for you, but I am still searching for a good solution to this issue for my own use.

Is there any way to download a complete classic report in excel with all the formatting i.e exactly in the same way how it is visible on apex screen ?
If yes, can you please suggest how can that be done?
I have downloaded the interactive reports using APEX office print using tag : '{&interactive_1}'. But not sure how to download a classic report.

I am trying to integrate Oracle JET with Oracle APEX, I tried to find information about integration. I found some blog posts for older version of APEX and Oracle JET - I can't find a way to download oraclejet.zip file and “Oracle JavaScript Extension Toolkit : Base Distribution”?
I tried to install files using npm, but there I can't find files which I should upload to apex static files.
Or this files: https://docs.oracle.com/middleware/jet400/jet/developer/GUID-219A636B-0D0B-4A78-975B-0528497A82DD.htm#JETDG-GUID-219A636B-0D0B-4A78-975B-0528497A82DD
I want to add JET diagrams to Oracle APEX and other components too.
Oracle JET has been part of the standard APEX installation for the past couple of years. The most recent release, APEX 21.1 contains Oracle JET 10.0.0. There are plenty of Oracle JET components that can be used declaratively by APEX, but you should still be able to reference the library through standard JavaScript if you so choose.
I am using
- Oracle APEX 4.2.6
- Mozilla Firefox ESR 52.3.0 (32 bits)
I've developed a Pie Chart that show some functional statistics. The issue is that the Pie chart did not show very well. In fact, it shows bad on the Developement environnement, but it shows well on the Qualification environnement:
Below a screenshot of the chart on the two environnement:
1- Developpement environnement
2 - Qualification environnement
What can be the problem with this issue?
NB: it's worked well on Chrome and IE browsers. But should work too on Firefox.
Thank you in advance.
I meet the same problem a year or two ago. My research shows that it is a bug in Firefox and/or AnyChart. I saw several topics on forums (including the official Oracle forum), everywhere this reason was mentioned.
Also, take a look at this page:
Product Management investigated the issue and concluded that this is not an APEX code issue, but specific to AnyChart HTML5 charts. Hence they are internally coordinating with the AnyChart.
The issue is that I have two different versions of AnyChart in both environnements and one of them is not compatible with the FireFox version 52.3.0.
The charts with AnyChart version 6.2.0 do not show as expected in the developpement environnement. But they show well in the qualificcation env with an old AnyChart version 6.0.11
I contacted the AnyChart support, this is their last reply:
Great, now I see. Thank you for your report!
In this case, we may suggest you using version 6.0.11 in both environments.
Also, you can get AnyChart.js from the environment server where pie chart works properly and use this js in the other environment.
We will investigate this issue related to 6.2.0 version.
As AnyChart is a part of Apex, please, contact Oracle support and report this issue.
To resolve the issue, I use the same AnyChart files of qualification env in the dev env: AnyChart.js and AnyChartHTML5.js files existed in the installation directory of APEX.
We have a requirement to create different charts like pie chart,line chart etc using pentaho.
We are getting data for these charts from a SOAP based webservices call.
what is the best approach.?
can we use PDI(kettle) component in Pentaho to get data from webservice and then use pentaho designer to create charts from PDI datasource?
How do you want to consume the charts? email? web? mobile? PDF?
Do you need to store the data from the soap call, e.g. to build up a history, or literally just display the chart at that point of time from the soap call?
If the former, you'll have to use PDI to get the data then store it.
If the latter then you could probably just do this directly in CDE, and build up a dashboard to show the charts. The charting in CDE / CTools is the best there is in the Pentaho stack. If you've not heard of CDE/Ctools then check it out - it's a vital plugin for any Pentaho installation, and parts of it are included in Pentaho by default now.
Every chart is a picture generated by charting engine. Pentaho has couple of charting engines (Birt Reports, Jasper Reports). You should use the Pentaho BI, which under http normal GET request will send back the resources as requested. Just like normal web browsing, where pictures can be accessed as inner urls when page is rendered. The parameters to chart can be passes as HTTP GET/PUT parameters.
When developing with application express, I am struggling with how to implement version control and how to have both DEV and PROD versions of an application. How do you publish changes from dev to prod? I know that I can export the entire application and then import into production, but is there a way to just import changes easily?
APEX 3.2 on Oracle 10g
For our Apex Applications* we have adopted the export\import method at the apex application level. Can be bit of an overkill for small changes but it works.
This thread on the Apex OTN forum seems to point to application level exports for version control as well.
*Just to clarify where I say Apex application what I mean is the sql file that Apex produces on an export.
