• Modules can be managed through the web application. While modules can be stopped, started, upgraded, removed, etc. without restarting the server, note that each time an action is taken on a module, the OpenMRS context is restarted — i.e., actions taken on modules (starting, stopping, upgrading, removing) will interrupt any active processes. For example, if Module A is listening on a port for messages and you start or stop Module B, Module A will be briefly interrupted as the change is applied.
• The file extension for OpenMRS modules is ".omod".
• A module Individual module documentation can be found at the Module Documentation page.
• Developers can find more information about writing modules on the module development page.

• Modules can be loaded into OpenMRS by one of two methods:

  1. Dropping the .omod file into the defined module repository folder (the module repository folder is defined by the system's runtime settings).

     Image Modified	Navigate into the modules folder located in your OpenMRS server folder.
     Image Modified	Place the .omod file into this folder. The module will be installed and usable the next time the web application is restarted.

     
     

  2. Uploading the module via the form on Manage Modules administration page in the web application.

     Image Modified	Navigate to the home page of OpenMRS then click on System Administration.
     Image Modified	Then click on Advanced Administration.

     Image Modified	Click on Add or Upgrade Modules.
