Can any one explain in brief how the CQ5 report related components post the query to crx and renders the data in the report tabular format .?

Hi ,

I believe it is happening as the page is getting launched .. for e.g. have a look at the " diskusage " component located at /libs/cq/reporting/components/diskusage.

The /libs/cq/reporting/components/diskusage/diskusage.jsp is creating the table .. (look at the function updateUI) ..

in this case the whole query is  handled in jsp by traversing through the nodes .. you may not customize existing reports .. but choose to create one of your own ..

you may also write an scr component and implement your query logic in a java class instead of jsp ..

an example here ..

http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/current/developing/developing-reports.html#Creating%20Your%20Own%20Rep...

the example has outlined cq widgetscollection(nodes*) to define the query limiting the nodetype ( to  see the last line ..P:nodeTypes [String[]] = "sling:OsgiConfig")

            N:items [cq:WidgetCollection]
                N:props [cq:Panel]
                    N:items [cq:WidgetCollection]
                        N:title [cq:Widget]
                            P:path [String] = "/libs/cq/reporting/components/commons/title.infinity.json"
                            P:xtype [String] = "cqinclude"
                        N:description [cq:Widget]
                            P:path [String] = "/libs/cq/reporting/components/commons/description.infinity.json"
                            P:xtype [String] = "cqinclude"
                        N:rootPath [cq:Widget]
                            P:fieldLabel [String] = "Root path"
                            P:name [String] = "./report/rootPath"
                            P:xtype [String] = "pathfield"
                        N:processing [cq:Widget]
                            P:path [String] = "/libs/cq/reporting/components/commons/processing.infinity.json"
                            P:xtype [String] = "cqinclude"
                        N:scheduling [cq:Widget]
                            P:path [String] = "/libs/cq/reporting/components/commons/scheduling.infinity.json"
                            P:xtype [String] = "cqinclude"
        N:queryBuilder [nt:unstructured]
            P:nodeTypes [String[]] = "sling:OsgiConfig"
