The SMS module allows to integrate with the API of SMS providers through the HTTP(s) protocol. Can be used both to send outgoing messages, as well as to receive inbound messages. Thanks to a flexible, template based configuration scheme it can integrate with a wide range of SMS providers including, but not limited to, Nexmo, Twilio, Voto or IMI mobile. The module also provides retry and auditing functionality.
For successful send sms proper template and configuration are required.
To make sure that you have JDK installed properly enter in console or terminal:
on Windows:
"%JAVA_HOME%/bin/java.exe" -version
on Linux/Mac:
"$JAVA_HOME/bin/java" -version
It should display your java version. If you do not have installed Java please follow Oracle's guide to install.
To make sure that you have Apache Maven 3.x installed, open a console/terminal and enter:
mvn -v
You should see your Maven version. If you do not have installed please go ahead and install it. Here are tutorials for Windows, MacOSX, Ubuntu.
To start work with OpenMRS modules you will need to setup the OpenMRS SDK. In terminal or console enter a command:
mvn org.openmrs.maven.plugins:openmrs-sdk-maven-plugin:setup-sdk
After proper command executing you can make sure the OpenMRS SDK works fine.
mvn openmrs-sdk:help
It should produce the following output:
[INFO] Scanning for projects...
[INFO]
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] Building Maven Stub Project (No POM) 1

[INFO]
[INFO] --- openmrs-sdk-maven-plugin:3.0.0:help (default-cli) @ standalone-pom ---
OpenMRS SDK your-version-of-OpenMRS-SDK
If that is the case, you have installed the SDK successfully.
For more info, see SDK documentation: https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/OpenMRS+SDK
You will need to have Java 1.8+ and Maven 3.x+ installed. Use the command 'mvn package' to compile and package the module. The .omod file will be in the omod/target folder.
Alternatively you can add the snippet provided in the Creating Modules page to your omod/pom.xml and use the mvn command:
mvn package -P deploy-web -D deploy.path="../../openmrs-1.8.x/webapp/src/main/webapp"
It will allow you to deploy any changes to your web resources such as jsp or js files without re-installing the module. The deploy path says where OpenMRS is deployed.
1.Build the module to produce the .omod file using:
mvn clean install
You can build .omod file skipping the tests:
mvn clean install -DskipTests
It creates *.omod file in omod/target directory.
Note: Building the module takes some time because during module building static code analysis are executed and the UI is building using the npm tool. If you want to build the module faster (during the developing) then you can use one (or both) of following maven profiles:
no-npm - disable building module UI (Note: the UI must be at least one time built before and the built zip file won't be deleted during maven 'clean' phase)
Example of usage: mvn clean install -P no-npm
dev - disable executing of static code analysis tools
Example of usage: mvn clean install -P dev
You can use both profiles in the same time.
Example of usage: mvn clean install -P dev,no-npm
You can also build module with code coverage profile using:
mvn clean install -P code-coverage
Apart from creation .omod file it generates code coverage reports which are available in:
api/target/site/jacoco/index.html
omod/target/site/jacoco/index.html
2.Use the OpenMRS Administration > Manage Modules screen to upload and install the .omod file.
If uploads are not allowed from the web (changable via a runtime property), you can drop the omod into the ~/.OpenMRS/modules folder. (Where ~/.OpenMRS is assumed to be the Application Data Directory that the running openmrs is currently using.) After putting the file in there simply restart OpenMRS/tomcat and the module will be loaded and started.
