Hi Ola,
there is also Google gear technology that is based on javascrip and allows
to create an offline version of a web application that is sync automatically
with the server version when Internet connexion is available. There is also
some tools to convert java gear javascript code...
Hope this can help,

Regards,

Romain

   Hi,


Anything to learn/reuse from OMRS when it comes to offline data entry and
synching with server? (see email below).


"Semi-online" data entry is much needed in online user environments where
the Internet connection is unstable and data entry is sometimes better done
in bulk jobs offline + a synch with server when the connection is available
(and the cost of installing a full offline DHIS as a backup solution is too
high). This issue has come up in Kenya.


To me the easiest and most short term solution seems to be Excel data entry
offline (in restricted and standardised worksheets) and then import to
server using e.g. transforms to DXF. If there is something to reuse from
OMRS, that might speed up the process of developing a more sophisticated
solution.


What do you think?


Ola,
