Re: DHIS OpenMRS integration

>>> Hi people,
>>>
>>> I have initiated creation of DHIS - OpenHealth data exchange module. The
>>> initial idea is to submit to OpenMRS DHIS metadat, OpenMRS will store these
>>> data into a table, there would be facility in OpenMRS module to map DHIS
>>> data into OpenMRS data and produce export data for DHIS in XML format. The
>>> entire module will be build for OpenMRS.
>>> Currently I have selected the following to be needed by OpenMRS to
>>> provide accurate data:
>>> data element id
>>> category combo id
>>> period type
>>> aggregation type
>>>
>>> Any aditions suggestions are welcome. We have Paul from OpenMRS team here
>>> and he is eager to work on this approach.
>>>
>>> Also I am planning to build some DHIS modules for Joomla CMS. Joomla is
>>> very popular open source content management system, used in many sites.
>>> Having these modules any site running on Joomla could easily fetch data from
>>> DHIS. This is very early ideas. Now we need to deside on what level to
>>> connect Joomla modules and DHIS: data base or web services (REST)?
