    Description

      While converting current Workplace data sources to use the new core Report Builder we have been following this pattern quite often, sometimes even 7 times in the same data source:

      // Add course entity columns/filters/conditions.
      $this->add_columns_from_entity($courseentityname);
      $this->add_filters_from_entity($courseentityname);
      $this->add_conditions_from_entity($courseentityname);

      It would be really useful to have a couple of new methods to do this at once and keep the current data sources cleaner:

      ->add_all_from_entity(..) To add all columns/filters/conditions from one entity.

      ->add_all_from_entities() To add all columns/filters/conditions from all the entities used in the data source.

       

      The code in this example can be simplified using these new methods:
