How to use Community Startup tabs (CST) in pentaho CDE?


I am using Pentaho version 5.0.1 stable. I am creating a dashboard which would be user specific. As the user login's, respective dashboard will open. So a user would not need to go through browse and then open the dashboard. The user authentication and role management is required. I know this is possible using CST- community startup tabs as per http://www.webdetails.pt/ctools/cst.html

But I am not able to figure out how install it in Pentaho and use it. There is no pluggin available at the market place.

Is there a way out? All i want is to install CST and use it.

Or any other pluggin or way to meet this requirement.

As I am new to pentaho environment, please guide me in detail.


Solution

  • CST doesn't work for Pentaho 5.

    AFAIK, there's no way to implement that requirement in Pentaho 5.

    Our first plan was not to migrate CST for Pentaho 5 since we thought not many people were using it but we've been receiving some requests. There's a JIRA open requesting the migration:

    http://jira.pentaho.com/browse/BISERVER-11624.

    Vote for it, comment and/or offer to sponsor the development and make the issue priority go up.
