GSoC 2024: Integrating ConnectForLife's Messages Module into O3 - Final Evaluation

Project Title: Integrating CFL’s Messages Module into O3

Primary mentors: Piotr Wargulak, Dawid Ruchniewicz, Samuel Male

Contributor: Lumu Christopher

Project Link: GSoC 2024: Integrating CFL’s Messages Module into O3

Overview

The ConnectForLife’s Messages module project is designed to integrate the messaging functionality from the 2.x format into the modern O3 UI. This module allows system administrators to configure a Message Service by combining a schedule (SQL script) and Apache Velocity scripts to generate and send messages to patients. Through integration with the SMS module, administrators can set up automated communications like visit reminders and pill reminders. This enhancement enables seamless patient engagement without requiring additional coding across other modules, improving overall system efficiency and user experience.

Objectives

  • To design and implement an O3 UI patient-based page that provides visual scheduling of messages from specific Message Services, replacing the outdated 2.x style UI to enhance patient communication.
  • To develop an O3 UI targeted at system administrators to streamline the configuration and management of Message Services within the system, improving administrative efficiency and control.
