OpenMRS Initializer module

Introduction

The Initializer module is an API-only module that processes the content of the configuration folder when it is found inside OpenMRS' application data directory:

.
├── modules/
├── openmrs.war
├── openmrs-runtime.properties
├── ...
└── configuration/

The configuration folder is subdivided into domain subfolders:

configuration/
  ├── addresshierarchy/
  ├── appointmentspecialities/
  ├── appointmentservicedefinitions/
  ├── appointmentservicetypes/
  ├── attributetypes/
  ├── autogenerationoptions/
  ├── bahmniforms/
  ├── conceptclasses/
  ├── concepts/
  ├── datafiltermappings/
  ├── drugs/
  ├── encountertypes/
  ├── globalproperties/
  ├── htmlforms/
  ├── idgen/
  ├── jsonkeyvalues/
  ├── locations/
  ├── locationtags/
  ├── messageproperties/
  ├── metadatasetmembers/ 
  ├── metadatasets/ 
  ├── metadatasharing/ 
  ├── metadatatermmappings/ 
  ├── patientidentifiertypes/ 
  ├── personattributetypes/ 
  ├── privileges/ 
  ├── programs/ 
  ├── programworkflows/
  ├── programworkflowstates/
  └── roles/

Each domain-specific subfolder contains the metadata and configuration information that is relevant to the subfolder's domain. Although several file types are supported for providing metadata, CSV files are the preferred format and all domain should aim at being covered through parsing CSV files.

Objectives

This module loads an OpenMRS configuration consisting of OpenMRS metadata.
CSV files are the preferred format, however a number of metadata domains rely on other file formats. See the list below for details.
Initializer processes all configuration files upon starting up.
Initializer produces a checksum file for each processed file. A file will never be processed again until its checksum has changed.
- See more info here about checksums.
Each line of those CSV files represents an OpenMRS object to be created, edited or retired.
Each line of those CSV files follows the WYSIWYG principle.

Supported domains and default loading order

We suggest to go through the following before looking at specific import domains:

How to try it out?

Build the master branch and install the built OMOD to your OpenMRS instance:

git clone https://github.com/mekomsolutions/openmrs-module-initializer/tree/master
cd openmrs-module-initializer
mvn clean package

Runtime requirements & compatibility

OpenMRS Core 2.1.1 (required)
HTML Form Entry (compatible)
ID Gen 4.3 (compatible)
Metadata Sharing 1.2.2 (compatible)

How to test out your OpenMRS configs?

See the Initializer Validator README page.

Finer control of domains loading at app runtime

See the documentation on Initializer's runtime properties.

Quick facts

Initializer enables to achieve the OpenMRS backend equivalent of Bahmni Config for Bahmni Apps. It facilitates the deployment of implementation-specific configurations without writing any code, by just filling the configuration folder with the needed metadata and in accordance to Initializer's available implementations.
