Adding a Gutter extension point
Â
The above link is called a "Gutter" in OpenMRS. So as a module developer if you are looking to add a new Gutter when your module gets installed under OpenMRS, here are the steps you will need to follow.
Add a gutter extension point in your OMOD/src/main/resources/config.xml file
<extension>
<point>org.openmrs.gutter.tools</point>
<class>org.openmrs.module.MODULE_NAME.extension.html.GutterListExt</class>
</extension>
2. Then add new class into  OMOD/src/main/java/org.openmrs.module.MODULE_NAME.extension.html/
package org.openmrs.module.MODULE_NAME.extension.html;
import org.openmrs.module.web.extension.LinkExt;
public class GutterListExt extends LinkExt {
String urlg = "";
String label = "";
public String getLabel() {
label = "LABEL_NAME";
return this.label;
}
public String getUrl() {
urlg = "PATH_TO";
return this.urlg;
}
/**
* Returns the required privilege in order to see this section. Can be a
* comma delimited list of privileges. If the default empty string is
* returned, only an authenticated user is required
*
* @return Privilege string
*/
public String getRequiredPrivilege() {
return "";
}
}
Â
Thats all.
