使用 Qlik Engine 导出可视化数据 JSON API

Export visualization data using Qlik Engine JSON API

我们的组织使用 Qlik Sense Enterprise,我们正在寻求自动化用于可视化的数据下载过程(格式可以是 excel 或 csv),而不是导致以下结果的手动过程(裁剪屏幕截图显示):

对于我们的用例,假设只有一个应用程序内部有一个 sheet,并且 sheet 有 3 个可视化。

我写了一个 python 脚本,目前已连接到本地主机,我能够检索 app_id、sheet_id 和当前使用的 3 个图表的 ID Qlik 引擎 JSON API。代码按以下方式工作:

  1. 获取 doc_list (app_list)
  2. Select 应用程序,因为我们只有一个应用程序,所以我们选择索引为 0
  3. 创建会话对象(我在 Dev Hub 上看到 Qlik Engine 表现出这种行为,这就是我执行此步骤的原因)
  4. 获取应用的布局
  5. Select sheet, 因为我们有一个 sheet 我们选择索引为 0
  6. 遍历可视化并打印它们的名称

我提供了下面的代码供大家参考,pastebinlink可以访问here

我在 Qlik 社区以及 SO 和 ExportData 上浏览了很多页面似乎是可行的方法,但我无法为其编写正确的 JSON 请求。作为参考,我在终端中执行 python 脚本时得到的输出如下所示。我对此很陌生,非常感谢大家的帮助。

我最初也在 Qlik community 上发布了这个问题,但没有得到回复。

对于这种情况,我通常从浏览器“观察”Qlik 的通信。

(在Chrome)

  • 打开应用程序
  • 打开浏览器开发工具(按 F12)
  • 导航至“网络”(1)
  • 导航到“WS”(2)
  • 按下所需的套接字会话 (3)
  • 按“消息”(4)
  • 检查套接字send/received中的内容

(如果您在“网络”选项卡中看不到套接字,请刷新页面)

下面是为一个对象导出数据的 Javascript/Node 代码。 (在我的案例中,我对对象 ID 进行了硬编码)

const fs = require('fs');
const axios = require('axios');

const enigma = require('enigma.js');
const WebSocket = require('ws');
const schema = require('enigma.js/schemas/12.20.0.json');

const session = enigma.create({
    schema,
    url: 'ws://localhost:9076/app/engineData',
    createSocket: url => new WebSocket(url)
});

(async function () {
    // open new session
    let global = await session.open();

    // open the app
    let doc = await global.openDoc("C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\Qlik\Sense\Apps\Consumer_Sales.qvf");

    // get the required object
    let qObj = await doc.getObject("MEAjCJ");

    // OOXML - export the data in Excel (xlsx) format
    let data = await qObj.exportData("OOXML");

    // generate the full download link
    let downloadLink = `http://localhost:4848${data.qUrl}`;

    // download and save the file
    await axios.get(downloadLink, { responseType: "stream" })
        .then(response => {
            response.data.pipe(fs.createWriteStream("export.xlsx"));
        });
})()

更新 - Python 代码片段

通过 sheet 个对象的循环看起来像这样:

id = 5

list_of_charts = result_json['result']['qLayout']['qAppObjectList']['qItems'][0]['qData']['cells']
for chart in list_of_charts:

    obj_req = {
        "jsonrpc": "2.0",
        "method": "GetObject",
        "handle": app_req_handle,
        "params": [ chart["name"] ],
        "outKey": -1,
        "id": id
    }

    ws.send(json.dumps(obj_req))
    result = ws.recv()
    ws.send(json.dumps(obj_req))
    result = ws.recv()
    result_json = json.loads(result)
    # print(result_json)

    obj_req_handle = result_json['result']['qReturn']['qHandle']

    export_req = {
        "jsonrpc": "2.0",
        "method": "ExportData",
        "handle": obj_req_handle,
        "params": [ "OOXML" ],
        "outKey": -1,
        "id": 6
    }

    ws.send(json.dumps(export_req))
    result = ws.recv()
    ws.send(json.dumps(export_req))
    result = ws.recv()
    result_json = json.loads(result)

    downloadURL = "http://localhost:4848" + result_json["result"]["qUrl"]
    r = requests.get(downloadURL, allow_redirects=True)
    open('export_python_' + chart["name"] + '.xlsx', 'wb').write(r.content)

    id += 1

我不确定 Python,但我发现通常最困难的部分是正确进行身份验证。像 JavaScript 那样的库通常会大大简化这一过程。我个人倾向于将 C# 用于此类小工具,其中 .NET SDK 提供运算符来为您完成管道工作。这是使用这两个 nuget 包的示例:

此代码会在应用程序的第一个 sheet 上下载所有可视化的 xlsx 文件。

var location = Location.FromUri(uri);
location.AsNtlmUserViaProxy();
var restClient = new RestClient(uri);
restClient.AsNtlmUserViaProxy();

using (var app = location.App(new AppIdentifier {AppId = appId}))
{
  var theSheet = app.GetSheets().First();
  var objs = theSheet.GetChildInfos().Select(info => app.GetGenericObject(info.Id));
  foreach (var o in objs)
  {
    var exportResult = o.ExportData(NxExportFileType.EXPORT_OOXML);
    var data = restClient.GetBytes(exportResult.Url);
    using (var writer = new BinaryWriter(new FileStream(o.Id + ".xlsx", FileMode.OpenOrCreate)))
    {
      writer.Write(data);
    }
  }
}
