Providers

One API. Template engines plus SQL.

Report-Boot ships provider modules for document rendering engines and SQL-powered dynamic Excel. Use Jasper, JXLS, BIRT, or Thymeleaf when a template is the right shape. Use SQL when the business needs fast, data-heavy, template-free Excel workbooks.

SQL Dynamic Excel

XLSXtemplate-free

The SQL provider turns trusted named-parameter SQL into business-ready Excel workbooks. It is built for teams that want exports developers can maintain and business users can trust: styled headers, formulas, summary footers, conditional formatting, metadata sheets, tenant isolation, and streaming for large datasets.

Module: report-boot-sql
Best for: Template-free, data-heavy Excel exports: finance reports, audit extracts, reconciliation files, tenant reports, and multi-sheet operational workbooks.
Docs: SQL-first Excel guide

Implement the ReportRenderer contract to plug in your own engine — DOCX, PPTX, image, or any custom format. More official providers (DOCX, PPTX, CSV, Markdown, image renderers) are on our roadmap — stay tuned, we're actively working on adding more tools and integrations.
