Description:

Install and run OpenEMR Docker on website labs.play-with-docker.com . This is a really neat way to get OpenEMR up and running very quickly and only requires simple access to a web browser. This skill allows us to run an instance of OpenEMR anywhere to allow demoing OpenEMR to a new user, testing OpenEMR, and providing support to other OpenEMR users. See the following tutorial to do this: https://community.open-emr.org/t/openemr-official-docker-has-been-released/9084/4

Test for OpenEMR bugs on PHP version 7.1

Categories: Code, Quality Assurance, User Interface

Tags: php, bugs, issues, github

Description:

A common code development issue for software projects are keeping up with dependencies. In OpenEMR's case, we need to ensure OpenEMR works on the most current version of PHP. OpenEMR will be releasing it's next version in several months and we need to ensure we are fully PHP 7.1 compatible.

For testing purposes, OpenEMR has a large number of demos on different environments. The following demo can be used to test OpenEMR on PHP 7.1: http://www.open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/Development_Demo#Alternate_Demo_.28Ubuntu_17.10_-_uses_php_7.1.29

For this activity, recommend using OpenEMR in the above demo and then reporting any errors that are reported in the 'PHP log file' link for the above demo. We are especially interested in errors that cause obvious errors for the user experience (especially a white screen of death).

Submit the errors you find to OpenEMR's github issue tracker at: https://github.com/openemr/openemr/issues

Submit an Issue to OpenEMR on github

Categories: Code, Documentation/Training

Tags: github, issues

Description:

A common way that software developers communicate is via Issues on github. For this activity, simply post an Issue that you are learning how to use github at: https://github.com/openemr/openemr

Submit a Pull Request to OpenEMR project in github

Categories: Code, Documentation/Training

Tags: github, pull requests

Description:

Code submissions are a vital component of software projects. For this activity, you will post a Pull Request to the OpenEMR project.

If you do not have a github account yet, then create one. Then create an OpenEMR repository in your github account, which is forked from the main OpenEMR repository at: https://github.com/openemr/openemr

Then on your OpenEMR repository on github, add your name to the google-code-in.txt file.

Then issue a Pull Request to the main OpenEMR github code repository to bring in your above code change.

Submit a OpenEMR Blog entry

Categories: Code, Documentation/Training, Outreach/Research

Tags: blog, community, github, pull request

Description:

OpenEMR has a blog here: https://www.openemr.blog/
