To get the name of the latest release, visit the Order Manager project in JIRA and consult the Relese secion.
A maven artifact is published in our Nexus repository each time we release the application. You can use it, but be aware that the link to the database is hardly coded within the artifact so you will have to use the same database name, owner (and password).
To get the artifact on Nexus browse: https://gazelle.ihe.net/nexus/index.html#nexus-search;gavOrderManager-ear~ and download the latest version.
If you rather want to build the project by yourself, you must checkout the latest tag and package it. You may want to create a new Maven profile to customize your build.
Checkout the latest tag available on Inria’s gitlab:
git clone https://gitlab.inria.fr/gazelle/applications/test-execution/simulator/order-manager.git
cd order-manager
git checkout tags/OrderManager-<version>
[Optional] Edit the pom.xml file and create a new profile
Package the application: mvn \[-P profile\] clean package
The EAR is available at OrderManager/OrderManager-ear/target/OrderManager.ear
The OrderManager tool makes use of the OFFIS Dicom toolkit to manage its DICOM worklist. You need to locally installed the latest version of dcmtk in your environment. If you run a Debian-like operating system, execute:
sudo apt-get install dcmtk
We recommand to use version 3.6.0 of the toolkit, you can verify the version with the following command line:
wlmscpfs --version
DCMTK operation file-based, it thus requires the creation of a folder to store and retrieve the worklists. The path to the root folder can be configured in the database (see Application Configuration section), the sub folders shall be created as follows
$ROOT = /opt/worklists
Sub-folders: RAD_OF, EYE_OF, _DISABLED, exchanged
To enable the worklist to look into directories, you also have to create empty files named “lockfile” in RAD_OF and EYE_OF folders.
Finally, change owner and give writing access to jboss:
sudo chown -R dcmtk:jboss-admin worklists
sudo chmod -R g+w worklists
If you use the artifact available on Nexus or if you have not change this parameter in the pom.xml file, create a database named order-manager, owned by the user gazelle.
createdb -U gazelle -E UTF8 order-manager
Copy EAR to the deployment folder of JBoss7 (do not forget to change its name to OrderManager.ear)
Start Jboss
sudo service jboss7 start
Wait until the application has been completly deployed and configure the database running.
WARNING : From version 5.3.0, datasources have been extracted from the ear. The template file can be found in /src/main/application/datasource in the source or in the file XDWSimulator-X.X.X-datasource.zip from the nexus. For more informations about how to manage that externalization, please refer to general considerations for JBoss7.
Datasource name : OrderManagerDS
Database name : order-manager
You first need to initialize the database with some data available in a SQL script. If you have checked out the project, the script is available in OrderManager-ear/src/main/sql/import.sql
Before executing the script, open the file and checked the various preferences to be inserted in the app_configuration table, especially the cas_url, application_url and other preferences relative to the user authentication (see Application configuration section)
Finally, execute the script:
psql -U gazelle order-manager < import.sql
To take those parameters into account, you need to restart either the whole Jboss ($>sudo service jboss restart), either only the application ($>touch OrderManager.ear in the deployment folder of Jboss)
Use the Administration menu, you will find a sub-menu entitied “Configure application preferences”. The following preferences must be updated according to the configuration of your system. The table below summarizes the variables used by the OrderManager tool.

From the Administration > HL7 Responders configuration page, you will be able to configure each actor of the tool playing the role of a responder in a HL7-based transaction. An entry in this table consists in the receiving application and facility and the port on which it listens to incoming messages. You can also configure the encoding for receiving message (always ER7 for IHE) as weel as the transport protocol to be used (always MLLP for IHE). If you are using HL7 over HTTP, you will be asked to provide the URL of the endpoint instead of the IP address/port couple.
The IP address is not used by the server but must be set properly so that the users can configure their systems under test to communicate with the tool. DO NOT update the other parameters, it would prevent the tool from working correctly.
Note: When you update a configuration, do not forget to restart it.
The first time you access the application, you may notice that the home page of the tool is not configured. To set a title and a welcome message, log into the application with admin rights.
Note that you will have to set up this page for all the languages supported by the application.
