Custom Reports
Use BeerSmith 1.3 to create your own custom report
templates using any of the BeerXML tags. Template files may be
either Web or Plain Text formats.
BeerSmith uses a simple template system that allows you to insert fields
anywhere in an XML, HTML or TXT document that will be replaced by the actual
data. BeerSmith supports nearly all of the
BeerXML data tags, plus additional tags.
All tags should be inserted as "$TAG_NAME". Here is a simple hops template
in text. Creating a template in Web (HTML) format is no different, and web
formats allow you to define custom backgrounds, colors, images for beer labels
and more.
Sample templates are available in the: C:\Program
Files\BeerSmith\templates directory.
Sample Hops Template (Text):
Name: $NAME
Origin: $ORIGIN
Type: $TYPE
Form: $FORM
Alpha: $ALPHA %
Beta: $BETA %
Hop Stability Index: $HSI%
Inventory: $INVENTORY
Notes: $NOTES

Add your template file to the Reports Tab of the
Options Dialog (Tools menu):
And it shows up here in the Main Hops View and in
the preview pane:
