This wiki covers questions regarding the OpenVistA and VistA software, the various components of that software, and configuration and installation of the same. It incorporates information from many people.
A VistA system is made up of the following components:
- Code written in the M Language, implemented by GT.M or Cache.
- Information stored in a M Database.
- Information stored in a VA FileMan File.
- FileMan-level control instructions in Templates:
- Input Templates for entering or editing data stored in VA FileMan Files.
- Search Templates for condition based or criteria based search
- Sort Templatess for sorting and grouping fields when output of information
- Print Templatess for printing and presenting fields
- Export Templatess for exporting values of fields to other programming systems.
- Code running in the Host Operating System, such as Microsoft Windows or Linux.
- example languages: Microsoft Windows Script Host scripts, bash shell scripts, tcsh shell scripts,
- example uses:
- Information stored in files in the filesystem of the Host Operating System.
- simple ASCII text files
- Comma Separated Values (CSV) files for import into Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Access, or Open Office applications.
Configuration is the process of changing details about a VistA package.
These details are fine level controls over the behaviour of the package.
Overview of OpenVistA
This Wiki is based on the mediawiki software.
Please see documentation on customizing the interface and the User's Guide for usage and configuration help.
