Attributes for Program

Support - Assistance technique
1

Hi Mahendra,

no it is not at the moment. However the attribute solution we have for data elements, org units, etc is easily extensible and it is a good idea to add it to programs.

I have written a blueprint here: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/dhis2/+spec/dynamic-attributes-for-programs

If you feel like taking it on it should be pretty straightforward. Basically you need to add a:

Set attributeValues to Program, and then add the corresponding hibernate mapping for the join table:

<set name=“attributeValues” table=programattributevalues">

Then add to the UI in data admin module.

If not, then we can do it early in the 2.18 iteration.

best regards,

Lars

Hi,

We have a requirement to capture custom metadata field for programs. For org units, datasets etc. we create a new custom attribute. Is there anything similar for programs?

Hi Lars,

It would be great if you could pick this up in 2.18.

Thanks,
