- Allow user to download dataset as sample CSV
- Allow user to download sample .rptdesign file
- Allow user to upload a new report design to a report definition
- Allow user to run a report
- Allow user to run a report with parameters
- Allow user to run a report with a cohort filter (?)
- Aug 20 - Pencils Down
- Edit existing BIRT Module pages to integrate more tightly with reporting module
Getting Familiar (April, May)
- Read the documentation
- Learn and use tools (SCM, Deploy, Testing, etc)
- Checkout the codes (OpenMRS Trunk, BIRT Report Module, Reporting Module, REST Module, and Webservices.rest Module) and give a look
- Investigate Eclipse BIRT
- Investigate bugs, tasks and features related to modules in JIRA (BIRT, REPORT, REST, RESTWS)
- Continue fixing bugs
- Bond with the community
Design
- BIRT 2.0 architecture
- Bug fixing
Could you elaborate on this ...
Report Renderer
- Implement a report renderer that can take a report definition and a BIRT report design file or template and produce rendered outputs in appropriate format.
BIRT ODA Plugin
- BIRT ODA Plugin
Could you discuss what you worked on here. There were a lot of blockers (lessons learned).
Data Integration
- Allow user to design a BIRT report using a CSV data source (local filesystem) (HIGH)
- Get that working within OpenMRS using a static file on the filesysystem
- Have the BIRT module write the CSV file to the filesystem and use the BIRT Report Design API to rewrite the data source URL
- Allow user to design a BIRT report using an XML data source (remote file) and get that working within OpenMRS (HIGH)
- Get that working within OpenMRS using a simple remote file you can link to any file, anywhere (e.g. REST web service, RSS feed)
- Get that working within OpenMRS using a dynamic data file provided by OpenMRS (e.g. an XML file provided by the BIRT module)
- Install the reportingrest module and make sure you can get a response from one of the REST resources
- Create a report that uses the reportingrest module to query an evaluated dataset from openmrs
- BIRT might require authentication in order to access the reportingrest module
- Allow user to download a sample data set in multiple formats CSV, XML (to be used when designing a report)
- This will allow users to design reports in BIRT to
- Provide tools to facilitate authoring and previewing a report within an external BIRT report designer.
- Allow passing OpenMRS Report Data into BIRT
- Use webservices (via REST).
- Use data source (via JDBC).
- Convert the report data to text files (XML, CSV).
- Use our own ODA data source
- Scripting data sources.
Midterm Evaluation
- Rewrite BIRT module pages/controllers/service to use Report Module API
- Demonstration and Presentation
UI and Query Text
- Rewrite BIRT module pages/controllers/service to use Report Module API (MED)
- Allow user to List, Edit/Update, Create, Preview and Delete reports with BIRT report designs
- Create BIRT Content (Completed)
- Edit Report
- Preview Report
- Delete Report
- List Report Definition
- Allow user to List, Edit/Update, Create, Preview and Delete reports with BIRT report designs
- A UI page and controller class to display details for a report definition including datasets
- Improve the query for the modifyReport(...) in the BirtTemplateRenderer class
- Testing, Demonstration and Progress Report
Use Reporting Module, Renderers, Enhance or Re-create BIRT ODA Plugin
- Allow user to render a report in multiple formats (pdf, doc, xls)
- Create a BirtTemplateRenderer (abstract class) that handles the render method
- Create a BirtPdfTemplateRenderer, BirtDocTemplateRenderer (subclasses of BirtTemplateRenderer)
- Implement everything including any BIRT library dependencies in a module so that someone who wishes to use the BIRT module does not need to install any additional dependencies.
- Allow user to design a BIRT report using a simple ODA plugin that takes a URL for an openmrs instance and prompts the user for a dataset definition and cohort definition (MED)
- Allow user to upload a new report design and create the appropriate objects from that (e.g. ReportDefinition, ReportDesign, etc)
- We might need to prompt the user for a name
- User should then be able to edit from within the Report Module pages (eventually we'll provide List, Edit and Delete functionality)
Web Service
- Modify existing services where necessary
- Implement new RESTful web services
- Testing, Demonstration and Progress Report
Comprehensive testing
- Comprehensive testing
- Demonstration and Progress Report
