Software

Open Hospital (OH) is deployed as a desktop application that can be used in a standalone, single user mode (PORTABLE mode) or in a client / server network configuration (CLIENT mode), where multiple clients and users connect to the same database server. OH is developed in Java and it is based on open-source tools and libraries; it runs on any computer, requires low resources and is designed to work without an internet connection. For more information check the online documentation here.

Open Hospital is composed by the following components, hosted in separated repositories:

  • OH CORE, a library that contains the business logic and the data abstraction layer
  • OH GUI, which provides a graphical user interface (GUI) made with Java Swing
  • OH DOC, which contains the user and admin documentation in Asciidoc format
  • OH API, a web server that exposes REST APIs over the Core component, and it's used by the UI component [WIP].
  • OH UI, a web user interface that consists of a React SPA (single page application) [WIP]

How to create OH packages

👷 📦 To create the Open Hospital packages, make sure to have installed the following dependencies on a Linux machine: JDK 8+, Maven, asciidoctor-pdf, zip, GNU make.

Then follow these simple steps:

  1. Clone this repository:

    git clone https://github.com/informatici/openhospital
    
  2. Run the script that compiles the components of Open Hospital, and assembles the portable distributions:

    cd openhospital
    make
    

    You can also parallelize some make tasks by using the -j flag (e.g. make -j4) or use intermediate targets to build single parts of the distribution - use make help to see a list of available targets.
