Pysar.Xaml

Declarative report markup for Pysar, a cross-platform report engine for .NET: this package contains the runtime .rxaml loader and the code-behind source generator. It depends on the core Pysar package, which carries the element tree, data binding and the SkiaSharp rendering and PDF engine.

.rxaml is Pysar's markup dialect: an XML document that describes a report the same way the fluent builder does, using the same elements (Grid, StackPanel, Frame, Text, Image, Repeater) and the same bands. It is the better fit for a report with a fixed shape — an invoice, a statement, a certificate — because the layout stays readable as a tree instead of a chain of method calls, and it is what makes a report editable by someone who is not writing C#: a template stored in a database, or edited through the design-time preview in Rider and VS Code.

<Report xmlns="https://mriyalab.com/pysar" x:DataType="local:Invoice">
  <PageFormat Size="A4" Margin="30" />

  <ReportHeaderBand>
    <Text Content="{Binding Company.Name}" FontSize="18" FontStyle="Bold" />
  </ReportHeaderBand>

  <DetailBand DataSource="{Binding Items}">
    <DetailBand.DetailHeader>
      <Text Content="Product" FontStyle="Bold" />
    </DetailBand.DetailHeader>

    <Grid ColumnDefinitions="*, 80, 80">
      <Text Grid.Column="0" Content="{Binding Product}" />
      <Text Grid.Column="1" Content="{Binding Quantity}" />
      <Text Grid.Column="2" Content="{Binding Total, StringFormat='{0:C}'}">
        <Text.Triggers>
          <DataTrigger Binding="{Binding Total}" CompareType="GreaterThan" Value="1000">
            <Setter Member="FontColor" Value="Chocolate" />
          </DataTrigger>
        </Text.Triggers>
      </Text>
    </Grid>
  </DetailBand>
</Report>

An .rxaml report supports the same binding system as the object model: {Binding Path} against the element's data context, string formats, value converters, and DataTrigger for conditional formatting. A DataSource on DetailBand (or any Repeater) puts its children in a per-item scope over the bound collection, with an optional DetailHeader and DetailFooter that stay in the outer scope.

Loading at runtime

Reports can be loaded at runtime, which is what a template stored in a database or edited by a user needs:

using Pysar.Xaml;

var report = ReportXaml.Load("""
    <Report xmlns="https://mriyalab.com/pysar">
      <PageFormat Size="A4" Margin="30" />
      <DetailBand>
        <Text Content="Hello from XAML" />
      </DetailBand>
    </Report>
    """);

report.Build();

Code-behind source generator

For application projects, the source generator uses the standard x:Class directive to provide generated InitializeComponent(), strongly typed x:Name fields, and compiled object construction. The generator ships inside this package as an analyzer and is wired up automatically through build/Pysar.Xaml.props — no separate analyzer reference is needed. Every .rxaml file in the project is picked up automatically; set <EnableDefaultReportItems>false</EnableDefaultReportItems> to list them yourself. Resources, styles, and triggers currently use the runtime-loader fallback.

Compile-time binding validation

Any element accepts the MAUI-style directive x:DataType="local:Invoice" to declare the data-context type of a scope. The hint is design-time only — it is ignored when the report is loaded — and is inherited by child elements until another element declares its own; x:DataType="" clears it for that subtree. The source generator validates {Binding ...} paths — and DataTrigger.Binding — against the hint at build time (PQX010 error for an unknown member, PQX011 warning for a type it cannot resolve). Where the scope cannot be known, nothing is reported rather than guessed: styles and resource dictionaries are reused across scopes, so their bindings are never validated. The XAML designer idiom d:DataContext="{d:DesignInstance Type=local:Invoice}" is an accepted alternative spelling of the same hint, used when no x:DataType is present on the element.

### Added
- `Pysar.Uno`: a new platform package for [Uno Platform](https://platform.uno/). One `net10.0` target covers every Uno Skia host - Desktop, WebAssembly, Android and iOS - and it brings the same `ReportView` the other platform packages do: a scrollable, zoomable viewer that rasterises only the visible region, so memory follows the viewport rather than the zoom level. Built against Uno 6.7.
- `PysarUno.Use(assembly, configure)` / `PysarUno.UseAsync(...)` (`Pysar.Uno`): registration for an Uno application, called from `OnLaunched`. A static entry point rather than a service registration, because an Uno application has no service collection of its own unless it also uses Uno.Extensions. Returns the handler, and exposes the shared `PysarUno.Renderer` and `PysarUno.ExportService`.
- `UnoReportPlatformHandler` and `UnoAssetFileSystem` (`Pysar.Uno`): report assets are read from embedded resources whose `LogicalName` is the path the report asks for. Embedded rather than `ms-appx:///` because font registration, `ResourceDictionary` sources and image loading all read synchronously, and blocking on Uno's asynchronous `StorageFile` deadlocks the single-threaded WebAssembly host. `UnoAssetFileSystem.PreloadAsync` fetches `Content`-packaged assets once at startup for applications that would rather keep them that way.
- `UnoReportPrinter` (`Pysar.Uno`): desktop printing through the same vector PDF pipeline as export - the macOS Print panel via PDFKit, the shell print verb on Windows, the default viewer on Linux. Android, iOS and WebAssembly throw `PlatformNotSupportedException`; produce the bytes through `PysarUno.ExportService` and share or download them from the application.
- `MacPinchMonitor` and `MacMagnifyEventArgs` (`Pysar.Core.Platform`, in `Pysar`): an AppKit local event monitor for `NSEventTypeMagnify`, now public and shared by every host that needs it. No user-interface framework tested surfaces a trackpad pinch as a gesture on macOS - it arrives as plain wheel deltas indistinguishable from a two-finger scroll - so a trackpad zoom has to come from AppKit directly. `Start`/`Stop` are no-ops on every other platform.

### Changed
- `MacPinchMonitor` moved from `Pysar.Avalonia`, where it was internal, into `Pysar`. Behaviour is unchanged for Avalonia applications; the type is simply no longer duplicated per host. It is plain P/Invoke against libobjc with no dependency on any user-interface framework, which is why it belongs beside `MacOsPdfPrint` in the core package.
- HarfBuzzSharp moves from 14.2.0 to 14.2.1.1 across every package, managed wrapper and native assets together. Required by Uno, and applied as a family because a split between the managed wrapper and its native assets is a startup crash rather than a build error.
- Docs: the quick start and README now cover Uno alongside the other platforms, including the two places it deviates - registration is `PysarUno.Use` rather than `UsePysar`/`AddPysar`, and assets are embedded resources rather than package URIs.

### Notes
- `Pysar.Uno 0.1.35-preview`, published earlier to the internal feed, is superseded and should not be used. It required an `Uno.WinUI` prerelease that no released `Uno.Sdk` provides, so no standard Uno application could consume it. This release targets stable Uno 6.7 instead and ships as an ordinary stable package.
- The Uno report view has been exercised on macOS Desktop - loading, pagination, zoom modes, and trackpad pinch. Its other hosts (WebAssembly, Android, iOS) build from the same single target but have not yet been run.
