Topics

 

  • Tech stack updates, esp. Java 8
    • Do we need to coordinate LexEVS and tools updates?
    • Are there updates other than Java 8 to plan now?
    • Need to invite Jacob to tech stack related meetings.
    • Discuss update potentially updating Spring to version 4.
  • Development process
    • Changes to build and distribution process
    • DevOps and CI: How Mayo implemented their CI server and what NCI's plan is for their own server.
    • Loaders
      • how to create one from scratch
      • Create a simple example of a loader
      • Point out places in code where simple updates can be made for different loaders. 
    • End user approach to LexEVS
      • Tutorial on how to query the LexEVS API
      • Review of existing LexEVS documentation
  • CTS2 REST services 
    • Expand to include associations?
    • Relationship of specialized REST calls (e.g., bulk download) to CTS2 service framework.
    • Discussion about one client should be able to connect to multiple instances of a service.  Can one endpoint provide data to query against another?  How can CTS2 be used in a manner that provides uri's that are not a part of the local resources.
    • Future uses/extensions of resolver
      •  Discuss a REST Framework that includes CTS2 and other calls (extensions)
      •  CTS2 REST vs additional (extensions) REST calls like bulk download  
  • Loaders
    • Issues with OWL2, MeDRA and HL7.
    • Tutorial/education on creating and using loaders.
  • GUI updates
  • RDF Triple Store or graph database LexEVS backing
  • End-user Value Set editor
