Notes

https://github.com/openmrs/openmrs-module-dataintegrity

Created to find gaps in your data

Provides a mechanism to define rules to find inconsistent data

Rules can be defined in Java and Groovy

Rules can be run one at a time or all at once

Groovy rules were introduced to give flexibility for different implementations to add custom rules

Challenges

1. No simple examples (or hard to find) of how to add UI to a module, e.g. how to display a table populated via REST.

Building a library over time

We could demonstrate javascript client

2. No clear way to install metadata with the module.

There have been several approaches to this. The "best practice" at the moment is to use metadata-deploy.

We (OpenMRS Community) would benefit greatly from creating a standard approach to packaging metadata (also behavior and other content). In fact, I (Burke) recently submitted a grant proposal to try to get funding for this specific aim.

3. How to expose REST endpoints for the module?

Questions

1. In what form is a data integrity report available? Excel, csv, page? It's a page.

2. Can the rules be added through UI? No, they have to be added in code.

3. Is it going to be used in Uganda? Yes, that's the plan.

4. https://openmrs.atlassian.net/wiki/display/docs/Data+Integrity+Module is it the module's page? Nope, currently, there's no wiki for the module.
