openmrs-distro-pihemr

===============================

This project defines the "PIH EMR" distribution of OpenMRS, which is made up of a specific OpenMRS war, a specific set of modules, and a specific set of microfrontends. The PIH EMR distribution is designed such that it requires a specific distribution configuration to be installed with it. Together, the PIH EMR distribution and the configuration make up a particular installation.

Overview of the PIH-EMR

The PIH-EMR is a distribution of OpenMRS, an open-source medical record system. A few links from the OpenMRS wiki that are worth reading:

Therep are 40+ OpenMRS modules that make up the PIH EMR, of which most are OpenMRS community modules, but also includes some PIH-specific modules as well. The pihcore module is the most significant of these, and is designed to be the primary "top-level" module that ensures each of the other required modules are installed and running and configured correctly. The pihcore module also ensures all of the appropriate configurations are applied and the installation is setup correctly given the country, site, and/or environment type specified.

There are currently the following "configurations" of the PIH EMR:

Within each of these configurations, there are several variations that are enabled based on the "pih.config" runtime property. Specific examples of distinct implementations include:

  • Haiti
    • Mirebalais Hospital / CDI configuration
    • Default Health Center configuration
    • Mental Health laptop configuration
    • HIV cloud system (coming soon!)
  • Liberia
    • Pleebo Health Center
    • JJ Dossen Health Center
  • Sierra Leone
    • Wellbody Health Center
  • Mexico

For deploying the PIH-EMR to our various staging and production servers, we use Puppet (https://puppet.com/) Our Puppet configuration scripts can be found here: https://github.com/PIH/mirebalais-puppet

Communications and management

There are a few tools that we use extensively and that all PIH devs should have set up:

Please request an account on both Jira and Bamboo by asking another PIH developer or emailing [email protected]

Setting up a Dev Environment

A development environment can be set up with the OpenMRS SDK, with some custom configuration steps, as written below.

(Setup can also be done using thePIH EMR Invoke file, for which the instructions are in that README.)

Prerequisites

You should have a machine (or VM) running Ubuntu 18.04 or later, and a Java IDE such as IntelliJ IDEA or Eclipse.
IntelliJ IDEA is our current preferred IDE and has a free "Community Edition" (https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/)

You should have Java 8 installed, preferrably via OpenJDK. See instructions here: https://docs.datastax.com/en/jdk-install/doc/jdk-install/installOpenJdkDeb.html

You also should have Git and Maven installed, which you should be able to do via the Apt package manager:

You should also set the MAVEN_OPTS environmental variable to allocate more memory Maven.
An easy way to do this is to set it in your .bashrc file. (Note you will need to open a new terminal window for this change to take effect):

export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xms1024m -Xmx4096m -XX:PermSize=1024m"

Once you have Maven installed, you can install the OpenMRS SDK by following the "Installation" instructions here:

https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/OpenMRS+SDK#OpenMRSSDK-Installation

Building the distribution file also requires npm, so you should make sure you have the latest npm installed. The preferred best practice is to install Node and NPM via NVM (https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm).

The OpenMRS SDK uses the H2 database by default, but H2 doesn't work with some of the modules we use, so we must use MySQL, which needs to be configured separately. To do this, you can either install MySQL directly on your machine, or install mysql within a docker container. Installing via Docker is the preferred approach going forward.

If installing directly, install MySQL Community Server 5.6 following the instructions for your platform. (At this time, it must be 5.6, not 5.7 or 8). Otherwise, install Docker (https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/ubuntu/) and follow the instructions below to use the OpenMRS SDK to set up an instance of MySQL within a Docker container.

You also should have this repository checked out, (though we won't be using it directly until we upgrade the system)

Setup

(TODO): Epic for making setting up a dev environment easier: https://pihemr.atlassian.net/browse/UHM-4245

Step 1: Ensure you have MySQL available

If you are directly installing MySQL on your machine

Ensure that MySQL has a password set up for the root user

  • If you are able to run $ mysql -u root and access the client Monitor without receiving an access denied error, it means that there is no root password set and you have to set it following the instructions here: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/resetting-permissions.html

  • Once the root password has been set, you should be able to access the MySQL Monitor by running:
    $ mysql -u root -p followed by entering the password when prompted.

  • If you are running an environment where the dbevent module is configured to track database changes with Debezium, then you need to make sure that whatever user you are logging in with has privileges on the binlog. You also need to make sure that row-level bin logging is enabled in the MySQL configuration. That is done by adding the following to your /etc/mysql/my.cnf file in the [mysqld] section and restarting MySQL:

server-id=1
log-bin=mysql-bin
binlog_format=ROW
max_binlog_size=100M

If you choose to install MySQL using Docker

You will need to ensure Docker is installed and running on your machine. https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/ubuntu/

You should also ensure that you can run all Docker commands without requiring sudo or root. https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/linux-postinstall/

  • For the simplest option, use MySQL Option 2 ("MySQL 5.6 and above in SDK docker container"), nothing further is required.

  • (MG: I had a recent issue with Option 2 recently, but was able to get things to work following the Option 3 steps below)

    • If you or need to connect to an existing OpenMRS database, or if you need a custom MySQL instance that has bin logging enabled, use Option 3 in the SDK installation process. You will need to create your own MySQL Docker container and instantiate a database into it:

      • Create a container (example below creates a container named "mysql-mirebalais" that will be available on port 3308):
        docker run --name mysql-mirebalais -d -p 3308:3306 \
                -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=root \
                mysql:5.6 \
                --character-set-server=utf8 \
                --collation-server=utf8_general_ci \
                --max_allowed_packet=1G \
                --innodb-buffer-pool-size=2G \
                --user=mysql \
                --server-id=1 \
                --log-bin=mysql-bin \
                --binlog_format=ROW \
                --max_binlog_size=100M
      • Get a bash shell in the container, and create an empty database to use

           $ docker exec -it mysql-mirebalais bash
           root@f25c851762df:/# mysql -uroot -proot
           mysql> create database openmrs default charset utf8;

Step 2: Set up the environment

You may need to add the Mekom Maven repository to your system. To do this, open ~/.m2/settings.xml and add the following to the "repositories" section of the file that starts with the "" tag.

  <repository>
    <id>mks-repo</id>
    <name>Mekom Solutions Maven repository</name>
    <url>https://nexus.mekomsolutions.net/repository/maven-public</url>
  </repository>

Set up the environment via the following command, choosing the serverId and dbName you want to use. Specify the DB password for your root user as set in Step 2.

The Application Data Directory will be set up at ~/openmrs/[serverId].
Here you will find all the files created during the steup

The convention for dbNames are "openmrs_[some name]".

$ mvn openmrs-sdk:setup -DserverId=[serverId] -Ddistro=org.openmrs.distro:pihemr:2.0.0-SNAPSHOT

(Note: if the you get an error when running the above command, see the troubleshooting section below)

  • When prompted, select the "pih.config" value to use. This determines the site-specific configuration to be applied to your server environment. Common options are as follows:

    • Mirebalais Dev/Test environment: mirebalais,mirebalais-humci
    • Haiti HIV Dev/Test environment: haiti,haiti-hiv,haiti-hiv-ci
    • Haiti HSN Dev/Test environment: haiti,haiti-hsn,haiti-hsn-ci
    • Haiti Other Dev/Test environment: haiti,haiti-<site>,haiti-ci
    • Liberia Dev/Test environment: liberia,liberia-harper,liberia-harper-dev
    • Sierra Leone Dev/Test environment: sierraLeone,sierraLeone-wellbody,sierraLeone-wellbody-gladi
    • Mexico dev/test environment: mexico,mexico-demo
    • Peru dev/test environment: peru
  • When prompted, select the port you'd like to run tomcat on (usually 8080)

  • When prompted, set the port to debug on (standard is 1044)

  • For database selection, select either the option to use locally-installed MySQL, or to use a MySQL docker container. YourserverId must only contain MySQL Permitted Characters in Unquoted Identifiers.

    • If you are connecting to a MySQL 5.6 instance running on your local machine:

      • Specify the URI and a username and password to connect to the DB
    • If you are connecting to a MySQL 5.6 instance running in an SDK-managed Docker container

      • Choose option 2
    • If you are connecting to a MySQL database in an existing Docker container (as described above):

      • Choose option 3
      • Container ID: "mysql-mirebalais" or whatever you chose above
      • DB username: root
      • DB password: root
      • URL: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3308/openmrs (if you used a different port above, will need to reflect that here)
  • Select the JDK to use (it must be 1.8)

NOTE: It is possible to script this to be non-interactive. Here is an example of creating a new server instance, using an external MySQL instance, running the server on port 8080, with debugging on port 5000:

$ mvn openmrs-sdk:setup \
    -DserverId=humci \
    -Ddistro=org.openmrs.distro:pihemr:2.0.0-SNAPSHOT \
    -DjavaHome=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64 \
    -Dpih.config=mirebalais,mirebalais-humci \
    -Ddebug=5000 \
    -DdbDriver=com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver \
    -DdbUri=jdbc\:mysql\://localhost\:3308/humci?autoReconnect\=true\&useUnicode\=true\&characterEncoding\=UTF-8\&sessionVariables\=default_storage_engine%3DInnoDB \
    -DdbUser=root \
    -DdbPassword=root \
    -DdbReset=false \
    -DbatchAnswers="8080"

Step 3: Clone the configuration project for the distro you are working

The various configuration files that determine what applications and options are turned on on different servers are found here. The configuration distro projects are as follows:

Site Repo
PIH EMR "Parent" Config https://github.com/PIH/openmrs-config-pihemr
CES https://github.com/PIH/openmrs-config-ces
Liberia https://github.com/PIH/openmrs-config-pihliberia
SES https://github.com/PIH/openmrs-config-ses
Sierra Leone https://github.com/PIH/openmrs-config-pihsl
ZL https://github.com/PIH/openmrs-config-zl

You want to clone both the "Parent" config and the specific configuration for the site you are working on:

For instance, for the Liberia configuration the command is:

git clone https://github.com/PIH/openmrs-config-pihemr
git clone https://github.com/PIH/openmrs-config-pihliberia.git

IMPORTANT Please check out the two projects under the same top-level directory so that the "install.sh" script we will use in the next step can find the "Parent" config relative to the site-specific config.

Step 4: Compile the configuration project and install it

Go into the top-level directory of the configuration project you checked out above and run the install script. Use the serverId you choose in Step 1.

cd openmrs-config-liberia
./install.sh [serverId]

This uses the OpenMRS Packager Maven plug-in to assemble the configuration and install it in the application data directory.

Step 5: Set up the frontend

To use the OpenMRS 3.x frontend, clone the Frontend you wish to install, either:

openmrs-frontend-pihemr

or:

openmrs-frontend-zl

In that directory, execute the following:

./install.sh [serverId]

This will put the frontend files in the frontend/ directory of your server directory, and create a symlink from configuration/frontend to frontend/site, which will allow the frontend application to access it.

Step 6: Startup the server

mvn openmrs-sdk:run -DserverId=[serverId]

In your browser, navigate to http://localhost:8080/openmrs in order to initiate the full startup process.

This is where the bulk of the installation occurs, and may take many minutes to complete (potentially 30-40 minutes). When this is complete, you should have a running PIH EMR instance and you should be able to navigate to the application and see an appropriate login page for your chosen distribution and configuration.

By default you can log into this via: admin/Admin123

Step 7: Create an account that is a provider

In order to use most of the functions of the system (patient registration, visit note, etc), you must be a Provider. By default, the "admin" user is not a Provider. You'll need to log into the system as the "admin" user, navigate to the System Administration -> Manage Accounts page, and create a new user account for yourself. Typically for a development environment where you would have a single account for yourself, you'd use the following:

  • Privilege Level: Full
  • Capabilities: SysAdmin Privileges
  • Provider Type: General Admin

You should now have a running PIH-EMR instance!

Troubleshooting

If you see the following error when running "mvn openmrs-sdk:setup":

ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.openmrs.maven.plugins:openmrs-sdk-maven-plugin:4.5.0:setup (default-cli) on project standalone-pom: 
Failed to setup server: Distro org.openmrs.distro:pihemr:2.0.0-SNAPSHOTcould not be retrieved -> [Help 1] 

... you should be able to fix the error by building this project (distro-pihemr) locally.

Check out this project if you haven't already, and from the top-level directory run:

mvn clean install -DskipTests

Then rerun the setup command.

Updating the Configuration for your Distribution

Now that you've got a running development environment, you'll likely want to checkout the configuration for the specific site you are working on so that you can make changes to this configuration, like adding or modifying forms.

Much of the configuration can be found in into distribution-specific files, that can be updated without updating the main PIH EMR code base.

To do this, you'll need to work with the "parent" config rep and the repo for your specific site, which you checked out from Git in Step 3 of "setting up a dev environment".

When you make changes to either the "parent" or "child" repo, you need to compile the changes and then "deploy" them to the SDK server you are working on. This can be done with the following command shell script (which simply runs the Maven packager plugin) found in the top-level of the various config projects:

./install.sh [serverId]

Note if you make changes to metadata installed via Initializer, you will need to restart your server to pick up the changes. However, HTML Forms should be available to be "hot" reloaded... once you run the mvn commands above, doing a "reload" of a page should reload the form with your changes.

You also can set up a "watch" on both the parent and child project, so that when you make changes to, say, an HTML Form, the project is immediately compiled and deployed. You do so using a "watch" utility script found in the top-level of the various config projects:

./watch.sh [serverId]

Checking out the PIH EMR Core module

Many configuration changes can be made solely by changing the files above. However, some changes will require making changes to the PIH EMR code base itself. Many times, these code changes will be in the PIH Core module, which is the top-level OpenMRS module that orchestrates most of the PIH EMR distro. The following steps explain how to set yourself up to develop against the PIH EMR codebase.

First, can check out the PIH Core code here: https://github.com/PIH/openmrs-module-pihcore

One you've done that, you tell the SDK to "watch" this code base. From the top-level directory of the PIH Core module run:

mvn openmrs-sdk:watch

This tells the SDK to "watch" this module. Any changes you make to this module will now be "hot" deployed, and each time you restart the server, it will recompile and redeploy thie module.

Upgrading the Distribution

There are multiple people working on the PIH EMR at any one time, making changes to various aspects of the code and configuration. It's important to make sure that all the different code bases are kept in sync, and there are a few build-in tools to assist with this. The following steps can be taken to make sure you are up-to-date with the latest distro. I try do to his each morning before I start my daily development, and also whenever I run into errors that may be due to upgrade incompatibles.

Steps to take

Stop your running PIH EMR instance (Ctrl-C from the command line where you are running the instance)

Execute the command, selecting the server you are working on, when prompted:

mvn openmrs-sdk:pull

This will execute a "git pull" on all the modules you are currently watching (probably only the PIH Core module to start)

Next, if you are "watching" the PIH Core module (or if you have been building it locally), you will need to run a mvn install to make sure you have the latest version built and installed in your local repo.
From the directory where you have the PIH Core module checked out, run:

mvn clean install -DskipTests

Then, run the pihemrDeploy.sh script in the top-level of this directory, passing in the name of server you are working on:

./pihemrDeploy.sh [serverId]

You can take a look at what this script actually does (it's quite small when you look at it), but in a nutshell, it runs an SDK command to make sure that all your modules are up-to-date with the module versions specified in the pom file of the PIH Core project.

Now you'll also want to make sure the configuration files for your specific site are up-to-date. To do this, go to the top-level directory of your config project (ie config-sl or config-zl) and run:

./pull.sh

Again, this is a rather short shell script and you can take a look at it to see how it basically executes a git pull on the config-pihemr repo and the config associated with a specific site

Then, install the config to your server:

./install.sh [serverId]

Then, restart the server:

mvn openmrs-sdk:run

Making Things Easy

Bash Aliases

$ alias omrs-pull='mvn openmrs-sdk:pull'
$ alias omrs-deploy='cd /home/mgoodrich/openmrs/distros/distro-pihemr && ./pihemrDeploy.sh'
$ alias omrs-run='mvn openmrs-sdk:run -Ddebug'

So to do a daily update of the system, run:

$ omrs-pull
$ omrs-deploy [serverId]
$ omrs-run

Developing Microfrontends

The PIH EMR uses the Frontend 3.0 framework. We have a few custom microfrontends:

Please see the Frontend 3.0 Developer Documentation for information about how to work on them.

Configuring functionality in a PIH EMR OpenMRS Instance

Registration Summary Dashboard

The RegistrationApp seems to provide, by default, a single widget, which displays the information in the "demographics" section. It only will display patient attributes - concept/observation data added to the demographics section will always show a blank answer in the dashboard widget.

RegistrationApp is configured in pihcore/.../apps/patientregistration/. SectionsDefault provides the default Registration application. Some of it is configurable using the site configuration JSON, mirebalais-puppet/.../pih-config-.json. Parts of it can be overridden in the site-specific Sections file, e.g. SectionsMexico.java.

Person Attributes should be added to the section with id demographics. Other registration components should be added elsewhere. For these, you will also need to edit the corresponding registration form section, pihcore/.../htmlforms/patientRegistration-<section>.xml. This XML file is what is used by the registration dashboard to configure the "view" widget, as well as the "edit registration" forms.

Diagnoses

In OpenMRS, the list of diagnoses to use is the set of all diagnosis concepts contained in the concept sets of diagnoses contained in the set of sets of diagnoses named by the global property emr.concept.diagnosisSetOfSets. Read that carefully.

To break it down a bit:

  1. Create a concept on the Concepts server called something like "MySite primary care diagnosis set" or simply "MySite diagnosis".
  2. Set this concept to be a ConvSet (with datatype NA), and check that it is a set.
  3. Add all the diagnoses you want to it.
  4. Create a concept on the Concepts server called something like "MySite diagnosis set of sets"
  5. Set this concept to be a ConvSet (with datatype NA), and check that it is a set.
  6. Add "MySite primary care diagnosis set" (or whatever you called the other concept) to it.
  7. Export a new version of the MDS package "HUM Clinical Concepts", adding "MySite diagnosis set of sets" to it.
  8. Update that MDS package in your config project.
  9. Add a global property to the appropriate configuration project that configures EmrApiConstants.GP_DIAGNOSIS_SET_OF_SETS, with the uuid of the Concept Set of Sets from above.

Registration Form

The Registration form is produced by RegistrationApp based on the configuration specified in the CALF. This also generates some of the Edit Registration forms, but not all of them. RegistrationApp is able to provide View and Edit UI for sections that do not have concept questions. For sections with concept questions, you will need to create a .xml file (like patientRegistration-contact.xml) to define those views.

Programs

Enabling a Program

There are a number of programs that come with PIH EMR. Each one has its own component. To enable a program:

  • Enable the component by adding it to the appropriate pih-config file
  • Ensure you have the concepts required by the program in an appropriate concept package
  • Ensure the program bundle will be loaded in your configuration (your config project includes the relevant program)

Locales

See the OpenMRS Wiki page on locales. Allowed locales are configured in global properties. Text mostly comes either from concept names or from message strings. Concept names and their translations should be managed on the concepts server.

Message string management

Message strings that are specific to the PIH EMR or which we define in the PIH EMR are kept in config-pihemr.

Some message strings are embedded into OpenMRS modules. See, for example, the English and Spanish strings in the coreapps module. Most of these modules are managed in the OpenMRS community via Transifex: Ask someone from the PIH EMR team to grant you access to the PIH Transifex org. In these cases, the english message should be added manually, but none of the non-English messages should be added directly to the modules. They should follow the transifex process.

Fish Aliases

If using Fish Shell (which confers major quality-of-life improvements over Bash), you can effectively alias mvn openmrs-sdk:... to omrs ... by creating a file ~/.config/fish/functions/omrs.fish with these contents:

function omrs
    if test (count $argv) -lt 1 -o "$argv[1]" = "--help"
      echo "Usage: 'omrs <command> <options>' does 'mvn openmrs-sdk:<command> <options>'"    
      echo "  e.g. 'omrs run' runs 'mvn openmrs-sdk:run'"    
      return 1    
    end
    mvn openmrs-sdk:$argv[1] $argv[2..-1]    
end

You can then run omrs run, omrs watch, etc.

PyInvoke

There's an Invoke file for doing local development of the PIH EMR here. It automates a lot of common PIH EMR pain points, including optionally pulling, deploying, and enabling all modules before each run; providing an easy-to-read overview of the project state before running (the git statuses of watched modules and config directories); and simplifying server setup.

Troubleshooting

(Also see: https://pihemr.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/PIHEMR/pages/2485387265/Implementer+Troubleshootings)

The login screen looks funny, and just gives me errors

If you're seeing a login screen that looks like this

MicrosoftTeams-image

it means that the pihcore module has failed to load. Look in the logs to find out why. Try searching the log for pihcore.

OpenMRS displays errors like this after starting up, where Foo is the name of the module I'm working on:

Foo Module cannot be started because it requires the following module(s): Bar 1.2.3-SNAPSHOT

As of this writing, we use a lot of snapshots. One thing that can happen is that when you openmrs-sdk:run, Maven might pull a new snapshot version of some module (here, Foo), but its dependencies may have updated, coming out of sync with the Foo POM you have locally. So the snapshot version of Foo expects BAR 1.2.3-SNAPSHOT, but your local Foo POM still requires Bar 1.2.3.

To resolve

  1. Pull the latest changes to Foo from master (merging/rebasing into your branch if you're in a branch)
  2. Run ./pihemrDeploy.sh in openmrs-module-pihcore, or run invoke deploy
  3. Re-run your server

I'm getting a NullPointerException from HeaderFragmentController immediately on navigating to the EMR

Something like

UI Framework Error
Root Error
java.lang.NullPointerException
	at org.openmrs.module.appui.fragment.controller.HeaderFragmentController.controller(HeaderFragmentController.java:47)
	at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method)
...

What the error means, interpreted literally, is that the pihcore module is overriding the header extension, but didn't successfully initialize the override. There are two likely reasons:

  1. The pihcore module is activating correctly, but the code is wrong, in that it's actually not setting up the header extension. Check the code in the CALF (see CustomAppLoaderFactory.java#L350) to see if it's setting up a header extension for your site. This is likely the reason if you're setting up a new site.
  2. Something went wrong at some point in server initialization before the header extension could be set. Scroll up in the logs and look for an exception.

I'm getting an error "viewProvider pihcore does not have a view named home" immediately on navigating to the EMR

Something like

ERROR - PageController.handlePath(155) |2020-01-15 09:23:35,714| 
org.openmrs.ui.framework.UiFrameworkException: viewProvider pihcore does not have a view named home
...

The error is itself meaningless. Look up in the logs for an exception trace to find out what went wrong.

The server isn't reflecting the changes I'm making in code

Make sure that the module you're working on hasn't come un-watched. Look at the watched.projects line of openmrs-server.properties in the App Data directory.

After fixing an error while developing on a metadata bundle, the metadata still isn't updating

When a module fails to start, the next time OpenMRS runs it will not try to start it. On realizing this has happened, you may be inclined to start it from the Admin UI. However, there's a problem. Metadata bundles don't load when starting the pihcore module via the admin UI on an already-running server. Therefore you must always make sure that your modules are enabled prior to running the server, especially after running into problems during initialization.

This can be accomplished by logging in to mysql and running

update global_property set property_value='true' where property like '%started%';

or by running invoke enable-modules if you're using PyInvoke.

Error about com.mycila when building core

If, when building core, you see an error like...

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal com.mycila:license-maven-plugin:3.0:check (default) on project openmrs-test: Execution default of goal com.mycila:license-maven-plugin:3.0:check failed: Cannot read header document license-header.txt. Cause: Resource license-header.txt not found in file system, classpath or URL: no protocol: license-header.txt -> [Help 1]

... then try commenting out the mycila plugin in the main pom of the project

I'm getting errors in my logs at startup related to io.debezium.connector.mysql.MySqlConnectorTask

This could mean that you are trying to run an environment (eg. humci configuration) that has a functionality enabled that requires MySQL to have row-level bin logging enabled. You can address this in one of two ways:

  1. Enable row-level bin logging in your MySQL instance (see MySQL setup steps above)
  2. Explicitly disable this by adding dbevent_enabled=false to your runtime properties file or as a system property

Source Code

All source code for OpenMRS is stored on Github, in either the OpenMRS organization (for core and community modules) or the PIH organization (for PIH-specific modules).

https://github.com/openmrs https://github.com/PIH

The naming convention for a module repo is "openmrs-module-[module_name]".

Getting Set Up with IntelliJ

At least with openmrs-module-pihcore, IntelliJ may want to identify some directories as modules that are not modules, and are in fact subdirectories of actual modules. The problem is that these phony modules don't inherit Maven dependency information from the parent modules, so IntelliJ will fail to resolve references to those dependencies. To fix this, go to Project Structure -> Modules and remove those directories.

Other than that, this project is more or less plug-and-play in IntelliJ.

Creating a local identifier source in a Haiti instance

This is only required for Haiti if you do not configure this appropriately via runtime properties at setup time

After startup, login

  • Enter "http://localhost:8080/openmrs/login.htm" into the Chrome web browser
    • Log in with the following details:
      • Username: admin
      • Password: Admin123
    • (The password is the default password, it is referenced in the openmrs-server.properties file within the ~/openmrs/[serverId] folder)
  • Enter the legacy admin page "http://localhost:8080/openmrs/admin"
  • Go to "Manage Patient Identifier Sources" under the header "Patients"

Check if there is an existing source for "ZL EMR ID" with type "Local Identifier Generator." If there isn't, you'll need to create a local identifier source to generate "fake" ZL EMR IDs:

  • Add a new "Local Identifier Generator" for the "ZL EMR ID" with the following settings:
    • Name: ZL Identifier Generator
    • Base Character Set: ACDEFGHJKLMNPRTUVWXY1234567890
    • First Identifier Base: 1000
    • Prefix: Y
    • Suffix: (Leave Blank)
    • Max Length: 6
    • Min Length: 6
  • Link the local generator to the Local Pool of Zl Identifiers
    • Click the Configure Action next to the local pool
    • Set "Pool Identifier Source" to "ZL Identifier Generator"
    • Change "When to fill" to "When you request an identifier"

Building the Debian package

Building the Debian package is possible on an Ubuntu machine with appropriate packages or using the included Docker image. This image is built and deployed automatically on each commit to partnersinhealth/debian-build. One can also build it locally using:

docker build -t debian-build ./debian/

Then, building can be done as follows:

docker run -v .:/data -v ~/.m2:/root/.m2 --workdir /data --rm debian-build mvn clean install -Pdistribution

Building and deploying the Debian package to unstable can be done similarly to above, with:

docker run -v .:/data -v ~/.m2:/root/.m2 -v ~/.pihemr-debian-env:/root/.pihemr-debian-env --workdir /data --rm debian-build mvn clean deploy -Pdistribution
