JasperStarter Portable makes it possible to run JasperReports via Command Line. The tool can run pretty much any such JasperReport that requires a .jdbc, .csv, .html, .json, or .jsonql file. Users can also run directly from an empty datasource. JasperReports comes bundled in this tool, so you don't have to download anything else to begin working on your stuff.

Through the Starter, users can compile and process their reports by executing Command Line functions. When working on a report, it is also possible to have the tool fetch the available parameters from the respective report. Date, image, and locale parameters are supported.

Users may also print their reports through this tool: through a Command Line argument, you can have it display the dialog to select the printer to use, as well as display the print preview screen.

Exporting can be done in multiple formats, such as .pdf, .rtf, .xls, .doc, .pptx, and many others. It is possible to export, into multiple formats through a function. The same is true when it comes to compiling and printing — all of this can be done through one commanding call.

Users can also integrate their work in non-Java applications, such as Python, as well as compile a whole directory of .jrxml files.

You can access the installer version of the application here.
