Notes

== Getting Started Guides ==

recent guide: raxa.org/developerGettingStarted
old guide: https://raxaemr.atlassian.net/wiki/display/RAXAJSS/Getting+Started+Guide

== 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.
