"Delivers What it Promises"
This book does exactly what it claims, proving itself to be the definitive reference for Ruport. You get a 10,000 view, a tour of day to day usage, and a look under the hood with the expert mechanics showing you what's what. If you use Ruport regularly or have even caught yourself asking as I did, "What could Ruport do for my reporting?," this book has the answers. Best of all, it's a short read that flows well so you can get that answer in a just weekend of free reading time.

If you aren't familiar with Ruport, it's one stop shopping for report generation in the Ruby programming language. Probably the single biggest advantage of the system is that... More > it makes it trivial to aquire data from just about any source (CSV and a SQL database being two obvious examples), manipulate it using a common interface, and send it out as various types of output just as easily (plain text, CSV, HTML, PDF, email, etc.) If this is a task your job requires, the odds are good that Ruport can lend a hand and this book is your guide for how to get that help.
