routr (development version)

  • You can now set the cache folder when using report_route() so that it can be reused between instances (#26)
  • Output types for reports can now be selected by name by appending the name of the format to the path (e.g. /report/revealjs). This is in addition to the current options of content negotiation and file extension appending (#28)
  • Report parameters can now be passed in with the request body using a POST request. The parameters must be formatted as JSON (#27)
  • Report caching can now be scoped to the client id (#31)
  • Quarto reports based on python now works properly with regards to extracting output formats and parameters (#29)
  • Cached reports can now be deleted explicitly by sending a DELETE request. All versions of the report (with regard to parameters) are deleted. If you use a format-specific path only cached versions of that format is deleted (#30)
