MERtide

A tool for creation of PEPFAR Monitoring, Evaluation, and Reporting (MER) forms in DHIS 2.

Repo Owner: Ben Guaraldi @benguaraldi

Getting Started

In order to run MERtide, you only need Python 3.x with these libraries, most of which should be installed by default: base64, collections, copy, csv, defaultdict, getopt, hashlib, json, operator, os, random, re, requests, string, sys, urllib, xml, zipfile, and zlib.

You will need your /opt/dhis2/dish.json to contain the admin user/password info for your DHIS2 instance. A template file exists in the repo

The proper data elements and category option combos must exist in your targeted DHIS2 instance for MERTide to run. For this repo upload public_metadata.xml found in the samples folder.

To run MERtide, use a command like this:

python3 mertide.py -i controlfile.csv -d disaggs/

The -i refers to the CSV control file and the -d refers to the directory of HTML templates for disaggs.
