QlikView... It's easy!: Simpliest Extension Object

A QlikView Extension allows you to visualize your data the way you want to see it.

Let's create brand new Extension Object.

First of all we need to find the folder where QlikView's extensions are placed in.

In my computer path is C:\Users\<user_name>\AppData\Local\QlikTech\QlikView\Extensions\Objects\QlikView\Examples\

I suggest create a new subfolder inside of Examples folder to store our extension objects (e.g. RusGon).

inside of RusGon we create a new folder SimpliestExtObj. It will be new Extension Object. Inside of this folder shoul be following files:

Definition.xml

Icon.png

Script.js

Definition.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<ExtensionObject Label="SimpliestExtObj" Description="description of SimpliestExtObj" PageHeight="100000">

  <Dimension Label="Dimension1_RS" Initial="State" DropTarget="State"/> 

  <Initiate Name="Caption.Text" Value="Caption of SimpliestExtObj" /> 

</ExtensionObject>

Script.js

 Qva.LoadScript('http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.2/jquery.min.js', function() {  

          Qva.AddExtension('QlikView/Examples/RusGon/SimpliestExtObj', function(){  

                   //Begin extension code.  

                        this.Element.innerHTML = 

                        "<HTML><BODY> "+

                

                        "</BODY></HTML>";       



                        $(document).ready(function(){

                                                        

                        });                                                     

          });  

 });
