ExtractDriverStorage Class

A storage of drivers used to manage writing/reading operations for data extracts.

Namespace: DevExpress.DashboardCommon

Assembly: DevExpress.Dashboard.v24.1.Core.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Dashboard.Core

Declaration

C#

public static class ExtractDriverStorage

VB.NET

Public Module ExtractDriverStorage

Remarks

By default, the DashboardExtractDataSource stores data within a file. If necessary, you add a custom logic for writing/reading extract data by implementing the ICustomExtractDriver interface. After you have implemented a custom driver, you can use it in two ways.

• To use a custom driver across all data extracts, assign its instance to the ExtractDriverStorage.DefaultDriver property.
• To use a custom driver for the specified data extract, register this driver in the ExtractDriverStorage using the ExtractDriverStorage.RegisterCustomDriver method and assign its name to the DashboardExtractDataSource.DriverName property.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to create a custom driver to encrypt/decrypt extract data. It implements the ICustomExtractDriver interface:

• The ICustomExtractDriver.CreateWriteSession method creates a write session that is used to encrypt extract pages.
• The ICustomExtractDriver.CreateReadSession method creates a read session that provides logic for reading encrypted pages.
