Migrating from OpenMRS ID  to KeyCloak

  • Potential sustainable ID system solution identified
  • Proof of concept set up
  • Roadmap for migrating users to the recommended OpenMRS ID system. 

Medium

175 hours

Our current ID system is beyond its end of life and unstable. This leads to significant interruptions for OpenMRS projects prioritized by users. A new OpenMRS ID system will reduce service interruptions, reduce infrastructure volunteer workload, and eliminate security vulnerabilities.

We would like the user 'handle' to be shared across Jira, Confluence and Discourse. The new ID system should either be free for open source projects, or extremely cost-effective for the amount of users we have. We are open to hosting open source tools, using cloud projects, or using Atlassian ID directly as OpenID or similar.

Next Generation Implementer Tools for OpenMRS 3

Redesigned config tools for O3

Advanced

350 hours

Non-tech users can set up a 3.x EMR in a friendly, no-code UI, similar to designing a website. Empowers local team members to set up and config their EMR themselves. More detailed user stories and requirements documented here. Project plan documented here.

Scope: technical work on the redesigned config tools for O3.

*Design is done because Ampath/@jdick graciously contributed designs and user testing, sample designs, and @bistenes gave a lot of architectural and technical input but then had to set the project aside.

Validating and re-working (updating) the OpenMRS PatientFlags module 

Medium

175 hours

Patient Flags feature cannot be added to RefApp 3.x just because the supporting OpenMRS PatientFlags module has a number of loop-holes.  
This is blocking the progress of the ANC prototype the initial milestone was displaying Patient Flags to the Frontend.

O3: Search Patient Chart feature 

Advanced

350 hours

E.g. search all of a particular patient chart for an item of interest, e.g. "IUD" or "COVID", to find if that term/situation has ever come up for this patient. We can likely leverage this past work: https://github.com/openmrs/openmrs-module-chartsearch Will need an API.
