Requires license file
Pull Reports™ Standard Edition may only be used under the terms of the Pull Reports™ end user license agreement. Downloading Pull Reports™ from the Pull Reports™ Maven repository constitutes acceptance of the license agreement. Additionally, Pull Reports™ Standard Edition requires a valid license file to be used in a production environment. Purchase a license from https://www.pullreports.com.
Pull Reports™ Standard Edition supports additional Export Report REST API formats:
kml,
geojson,
map,
htmltree, and
jsontree
and unlimited <report>s and
user queries.
The pullreports.license file is read at Servlet container start up
and contains the license term (end date) and number of permitted <report>s.
The license.file configuration property sets the
license file location. The default location is at the root of the Java Virtual Machine
classpath. A common root classpath location is the installation WAR's WEB-INF/classes directory,
but any other classpath location is permitted such as $CATALINA_HOME/lib in a Tomcat Servlet
Container.
Pull Reports™ performs the following license checks on initialization:
If the provided license file is invalid or the total number of configured <report>s
exceeds the number permitted by the license, Pull Reports™
logs an error message and exits.
If the current date is after the license end date (license expiration), Pull Reports™ limits the Pull Reports™ Standard Edition additional Export Report REST API formats to 100 records. Formats supported by the Pull Reports™ Community Edition license will continue to work without restriction.
Additionally, the Ad Hoc Report Creator displays a footer message when the license is expired.
After initialization, Pull Reports™ writes the license term and number
of permitted <report>s to the ADMIN logger.
