ODS PACKAGE Statement
The ODS PACKAGE statement opens, adds to, publishes, or closes one SAS Output Delivery System (ODS) package object. The ODS PACKAGE statement is production in SAS 9.2 and later.
Documentation
See the ODS PACKAGE statement in the SAS Output Delivery System: User's Guide, which is available in Base SAS documentation.
Example: Creating a Package
This example demonstrates the arguments for the ADD action.
ods package add file="test.sas" mimetype="text/plain" path="sas/";
/* Make a fileref */
%filename (t, t20, sas);
ods package open;
/* Add this program and put it in the sas directory */
ods package add file="t20.sas" path="sas" mimetype="text/plain";
/* Add this program as a fileref in root directory of package */
ods package add file=t;
/* Add a data set from a named library */
ods package add data=sashelp.class;
/* Create a temporary data set in the default library (Work) */
proc sort data=sashelp.class out=foo;
by age;
run;
/* Add a data set from the default library (Work) */
ods package add data=foo;
/* Create the archive */
ods package publish archive properties(archive_name="t20.spk"
archive_path="./");
/* Delete the ods package object */
ods package close;
Example: Using a Package
This is a simple example of using a package with ODS with the default, unnamed package. The destination must specify a package option to connect with the package.
ods package open;
ods html package file="test_1.html" newfile=output;
options obs=6;
proc sort data=sashelp.class out=foo;
by age;
run;
proc print ;
by age;
run;
ods html close;
ods package add file="test.sas" mimetype="text/plain" path="SAS";
ods package publish archive properties(archive_name="test.spk" archive_path="./");
ods package close clear;
The package created by the above example code looks like this:
unzip -l test.spk
Archive: test.spk

Example: Using Multiple Packages and Destinations
A more complex example with named packages and multiple destinations looks like this:
ods listing close;
goptions dev=gif xpixels=480 ypixels=320;
ods package open;
ods package(foo) open;
ods rtf package file="test2.rtf";
ods html package(foo) file="test2_1.html" newfile=output;
*options obs=5;
proc sort data=sashelp.class out=foo;
by age;
run;
proc print ;
by age;
run;
proc gplot data=sashelp.class;
plot height*weight;
by name;
run;
quit;
ods html close;
ods package add file="test2.sas" mimetype="text/plain" path="SAS";
ods package(foo) add file="test2.sas" mimetype="text/plain" path="SAS";
ods package publish archive properties(archive_name="testRTF.spk" archive_path="./");
ods package(foo) publish archive properties(archive_name="testHTML.spk" archive_path="./");
ods package(foo) close clear;
ods package close clear;
The two archives the example code publish look like this:
unzip -l testHTML.spk
Archive: testHTML.spk
