Hello everyone,
I've had this conversation with Adam and Yaw, about connect ODK-Voice and
OpenMRS,

Hi Adam and Yaw,
I've configured successfully my Voxeo Prophecy and ODK-Voice and now I'd
like to integrate ODK-Voice with OpenMRS, such that OpenMRS can create the
xform (using the xforms module) for ODK-Voice to translate to VoiceXML and
to have OpenMRS be able to receive answers from a phone call and create
actions based on them. I'm thinking of doing the integration by moving the
ODK-Voice's database into OpenMRS's database. This way when ODK works in
its own instance inside Tomcat, can write and read from the database without
problems, and this allow me to design some POJOs to handle the tables on a
OpenMRS module. Have you guys thought of OpenMRS-ODK voice integration? Do
you think this is the best way?
Thanks,
From: Adam Lerer adam.lerer@gmail.com

Hey Cristian,
Unfortunately, I've never worked with OpenMRS before - Yaw might be
able to give you better advice.
Putting ODK Voice's database tables into the OpenMRS database seems
quite dangerous to me (although you're welcome to try it if you don't
care too much about your data integrity). Maybe you want to open
separate database connections to the OpenMRS and ODK Voice databases
and wrap them in a single Adapter module (so that a single database
read/write wrapper call could read/write to both databases).
Good luck!

dunno about the right way, but i generally like modular systems.
why not use the xforms module in openmrs to connect to voice? you can
write a servlet that pulls xforms from the module into voice. voice
can then publish the xforms instance data back to openmrs using that
module.
as an aside, these conversations should happen on
opendatakit@googlegroups.com so the discussions are publicly archived
and so the community can add their feedback.

Oh yes, I forgot that there is now an XForms OpenMRS module.
ODK Voice publishes completed surveys to ODK Aggregate in a similar
way to ODK Collect, so if there is already a way to connect ODK
Collect and OpenMRS, that would be a good avenue to pursue (pushing
forms FROM openmrs to voice is another story, and probably a little
bit more work).
I'll be glad if all of you can give us your feedback and opinions about this
development. I've been thinking about use ODK-Clinic to do that connection
between OpenMRS and ODK-Voice.
Regards.
