This package enables you to connect your Laravel application to an ODK Central server, and to manage the deployment of ODK forms via a set of CRUD panels built with Laravel Backpack.

The benefit of this package is that it allows you to create a set of "xlsform templates", and then deploy many versions of each template to different "owners". An owner could be an individual user, or a team. This way, multiple groups can work independently and keep their data separate, while still using the same "xlsform templates", and enabling a central team to reeview data from all teams.

> NOTE: This is still in development. It currently requires Laravel Backpack Pro, which is a paid product. We hope to be able to refactor this to not require a Backpack Pro licence in the future.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

This package assumes you have already setup your project to use Laravel Backpack. If you haven't, please do so by following their installation guide: .

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer require stats4sd/laravel-odk-link
```

You can publish and run the migrations with:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="odk-link-migrations"
php artisan migrate
```

You can publish the config file with:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="odk-link-config"
```

This package comes with a set of CRUD panels designed to help you manage ODK forms and submissions. To add links to these into your Backpack Admin panel sidebar, run the included command:

```
php artisan odk:crud
```

This package uses Spatie's Laravel Media Library. To set that up, run the following commands (see their [Installation instructions](https://spatie.be/docs/laravel-medialibrary/v10/installation-setup) for more information and for custom setups)

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Spatie\MediaLibrary\MediaLibraryServiceProvider" --tag="migrations"
php artisan migrate
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Spatie\MediaLibrary\MediaLibraryServiceProvider" --tag="config"
```

You also need to add some Environment variables to your project. In your .env file, add the following:

```
### REQUIRED
# url of your ODK Central server
ODK_URL="https://example-odk-central-server.com"

# username and password of an administrator account for your ODK Central server
ODK_USERNAME="an-admin-user-account"
ODK_PASSWORD="your-password"

### OPTIONAL
# the FQDN of the PHP class in your application that is used to process an ODK submission
SUBMISSION_PROCESS_CLASS="\\App\\Http\\Controllers\\SubmissionController"

# the method within the class. This method should:
# - be a public static function
# - accept an OdkLink\Models\Submission object as the only required variable
SUBMISSION_PROCESS_METHOD="process"

## Use
TODO: write up full documentation.
