Hello everyone, I will be working on the Android Client, below are the features I will be implementing over the GSoC period.
-
Feedback /Bug Report System: As suggested by my mentor, the user should be able to send a log report to us via email whenever the app crashes. Currently, the logs are already saved in a file, so whenever the app crashes we can show a custom error message to the user using ACRA (GitHub - ACRA/acra: Application Crash Reports for Android) and then the user can select to send us the crash report or discard the message. ACRA will also help to get detailed crash reports for proper debugging.

Visual Improvements: a. I will use William Charts (GitHub - diogobernardino/williamchart: Android Library to rapidly develop attractive and insightful charts in android applications.) to better represent the Vitals data as graphs which will help in proper visualization. b. Other small improvements include using sliders in place of EditText etc. c. I will add a demo for the app so that whenever someone runs the app the for the first time they can get a gist of all the features. For this, I will use GitHub - deano2390/MaterialShowcaseView: A Material Design themed ShowcaseView for Android .

Vitals : I will add functionality to add doctor information, and other useful information of the patient, along with this I will add feature to generate the patient report (probably as pdf) and ability to send them to other doctors too. For this, I will use the Complex obs (Complex Obs Support - Documentation - OpenMRS Wiki) functionality.
-
Provider Module : Adding the provider module functionality is a large feature request by our community. I will use Provider Management Module documentation present on the Wiki (Provider Management Module - Documentation - OpenMRS Wiki) to add the support for the provider module. I will add the following functionalities : a. Search for providers and edit their demographic information b. Assign/unassign patients to providers (via relationships) c. Assign/unassign supervisees to providers (via relationships) I will also add a provider dashboard which will have the following functionalities : a. Add: search for a patient (in the patient relationship pages) or provider (in the supervisees pane) to add as a patient/supervisee of the current provide b. Edit: edit the start date of a patient/supervisee relationship c. Transfer: transfer the selected patients/supervisees to another provider/supervisor d. Remove: end the provider-patient or supervisor-supervisee relationship for the selected patient/supervisee e. Void: void the provider-patient or supervisor-supervisee relationship for the selected patient/supervisee

Appointment Scheduling: I will also implement the Appointment scheduling to the android app. I will use the Appointment Scheduling Module (Appointment Scheduling Module - Documentation - OpenMRS Wiki).
