== REST ==

Try POSTing and GETting an observation

Anything to help get an overview of what items are sent/received in a REST call:

• https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/REST+Web+Service+Resources
• https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/Webservices.rest+Module

Data Model

• https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/Data+Model

make sure REST call returns JSON

• Content-Type : application/json;charset=UTF-8

Todo's:

• Background learning
  
  • Try out Raxa's actual app, learn code structure
  • Read more about OpenMRS, better understand what's sent / received in a REST call and how that relates to OpenMRS data-model
• Ajax Calls
  
  • Save and retrieve observations. 
  • Associate with particular patient
  • Can manage observations here http://test.raxa.org:8080/openmrs/admin/index.htm
• Build app
  
  • on Android simulator, if easier to test taking a photo
  • on real device
• Research sending files / images via REST, best practices
  
  • what is best JSON structure
  • what kinds of filetypes support
  • how to compress, hydrate the image
  • what other fields would be useful beyond image data
• Overall Goal
  
  • Create an app that can 
    
    • search for an existing patient ID
    • take a photo
    • save that photo to the database for the associated patient
    • REACH: view that photo in other modules
      
      • suggest saving an encounter of encounter type "REGISTRATION_PHOTO" and creating an observation within that encounter. then we just have to lookup encounter type to see if a photo has been taken (e.g. to get lots of patient photos) or we can also look up the obs directly.
