Open Hospital - Core

Java CI

This is the Core component of Open Hospital: it contains the business logic and the data abstraction layer.
The Core component is used by the Java Swing desktop GUI, and by the web UI (through the API component).

How to build

After having installed Java JDK 8+ and Maven, to build this project issue:

mvn package

To use the Core component in the other projects, you'll need to install it locally with:

mvn install

To run the tests simply issue:

mvn test

Tests are run against an in-memory database (H2).
To test the application against MySQL, you can change database.properties and run the Docker container in the root folder with:

# clean previous build
docker compose rm --stop --volumes --force
docker-compose up

How to run Open Hospital

To run Open Hospital, you'll need a user interface, which is provided in the GUI and in the UI projects.
Please follow the instructions in the documentation of those repositories.
