Public Test Servers

This is not ideal. I hope EHRbase can be made more accessible soon.
In the meantime, can you double-check that setting up the DB manually on a plain postgres instance doesn’t work?
See: GitHub - ehrbase/ehrbase: An open source openEHR server

you can build the postgres image via ehrbase/Dockerfile_postgres at develop · ehrbase/ehrbase · GitHub

with POSTGRES_VERSION=16.2 as argument

see also ehrbase/.github/workflows/docker-ehrbase-postgres.yml at develop · ehrbase/ehrbase · GitHub

Thanks Jake and Stefanspiska!

I would try your suggestion. Thanks, Jake.

IMO, one of the most important reasons why HAPI FHIR is becoming increasingly popular is probably the availability of its public test server.

Is EHRServer’s Web UI compatible with other openEHR-based Servers such as EHRBase, just like HAPI FHIR Server’s Web UI is compatible with other FHIR-based Servers?

Hi @linforest I just saw this by mistake, it’s easier if you tag people to answer.

EHRServer is being unmaintained for a while, we are focusing on it’s improved sibling Atomik https://atomik.app/

You will find it’s user interface similar to EHRServer, because it’s in fact the same UI, just improved and updated.

The Web Console (UI) of Atomik/EHRServer is part of the system, it’s not a separate component. I guess it’s possible to port it with some coding or to create a totally separated component that can be integrated with a backend via an API, though that API doesn’t exist per-se and is not part of the openEHR specs. So the Web Console in Atomik/EHRServer is actually a differentiator from other implementations, that was designed on purpose with one goal in mind: having everything you need to provide an openEHR repository and be able to manage it via a web interface, all in one box. Here you can find more info Atomik standardized Clinical Data Repository and Demographic Data Repository

By the way, about the topic of public test servers, Atomik has a public test server here https://test.atomik.app

For accessing it, please send us a message through the contact form here https://cabolabs.com/ including your name, company, what do you want to test the server and with which purpose, and we’ll setup a user for you.

Best,
Pablo.

Hi Pablo. Several years ago, I installed the EHRServer. I was really impressed with its intuitive and Feature-rich Web UI.

Later, I’ll contact you to register a test account for the Atomik public test server. Thanks you so much for the public test server.

Initially the EHRServer was designed for training purposes. At that time, 2011-2013 I was doing a lot of openEHR education but we didn’t have any practical tool to show how openEHR works, so I designed the backend and the web console so my students were able to manage openEHR data and see it from a friendly web page, without the hassle of going directly to the database to see what was happening. Also remember at that time there was no openEHR REST API, so I created our own API to make EHRServer talk with external apps. After several years of slow improvements it became more like an open source product, though it still has a lot of value for teaching and learning. I’m planning to do some improvements to it later this year, just focusing right now on Atomik.

For the ones ending up here. We now got a test server for EHRbase + some UI tooling:

See EHRbase Sandbox, Tools and Testserver - #3 by birger.haarbrandt for announcement

and https://sandkiste.ehrbase.org/ for the actual thing.

At EHRCON24 some sample patient records were created for the connectathon. Does anyone know where you can get a copy of those records?

Would be very useful in a test instance …
