Open Hospital - GUI
This is the GUI component of Open Hospital: it contains a graphical user interface (GUI) made with Java Swing. This project depends on the Core component for the business logic and the data abstraction layer. An alternative user interface based on React and currently still work-in-progress is available here.
How to build
To build this project you'll need Java JDK 8+ and Maven. Additionally, you'll need to build and install locally the Core component of Open Hospital. Once you do that, to build this project just issue:
mvn package
To run the tests simply issue:
mvn test
How to launch Open Hospital
To launch Open Hospital GUI, use the scripts oh.sh (on Linux) or oh.bat (on Windows) from the maven target folder.
You will need a MySQL database running locally (e.g. the Docker container available in the Core project),
or any similar SQL database (e.g. MariaDB).
Launch within IDE
Be sure to have configured properly the classpath for the project (see 7 Installing Open Hospital 1.11.0 in Eclipse EE)
Before running the application, you should generate the config files with the g) option, or manually copying and renaming the files *.dist files in rsc/ folder and edit them accordingly:
| Dist file | Property file | Properties to fill in |
|---|---|---|
| database.properties.dist | database.properties | DBSERVER, DBPORT, DBNAME, DBUSER, DBPASS |
| dicom.properties.dist | dicom.properties | OH_PATH_SUBSTITUTE/DICOM_DIR, DICOM_SIZE |
| log4j.properties.dist | log4j.properties | LOG_DEST, DBSERVER, DBPORT, DBNAME, DBUSER, DBPASS, LOG_LEVEL |
| settings.properties.dist | settings.properties | OH_SET_LANGUAGE |
