v5.0.0

Patient Chart v5.0.0 is a major release that introduces a BREAKING change. It migrates all the frontend modules in this monorepo to leverage the new module loading mechanism introduced in Core v5. Additionally, this release includes performance improvements plus a host of new features and bug fixes.

Highlights

Performance improvements

We have migrated all the frontend modules in Patient Chart to leverage the new module loading mechanism introduced in Core v5. Frontend modules now declare their static and dynamic metadata upfront, and the framework uses this information to load only the static bits when the application gets loaded for the first time while loading the dynamic bits is deferred to later when they are needed. This change delivers significant improvements to initial load time. Check out the migration guide to get a closer look at the internals of the new module loading mechanism.

Translation support for the left nav menu

v5.0.0 adds support for internationalising dashboard titles in the left nav. Each dashboard can specify a title string property that represents the dashboard's name. This title then gets passed to the DashboardExtension component which invokes the t function from the useTranslation hook, passing in the title. To round things off, the frontend module's moduleName gets passed as the namespace argument of useTranslation, letting it know where to look for the corresponding translations. This mechanism makes it easy to translate your dashboard names.

Migrating React forms to use RHF and Zod for schema validation

v5.0.0 ushers in React Hook Forms (RHF) for handling forms. RHF is a performant forms solution that reduces the boilerplate code you need to write when constructing forms. RHF is also performant and supports a host of schema validation solutions. Zod is a schema validation library that integrates well with RHF and TypeScript. RHF's simple API and Zod’s declarative schema approach make your code easier to read and maintain. RHF and Zod present a robust approach to handling forms in React. v5.0.0 ports the Conditions and Visit notes forms to use RHF and Zod, with more custom React forms in the pipeline. Ultimately, we plan to migrate away from Formik and Yup to RHF and Zod.

Initial support for patient flags and improved RDE capabilities

This release establishes the groundwork for patient flags and improved RDE capabilities. Patient flags are visual components that enable healthcare providers to see relevant patient information with a glance in the Patient chart. v5.0.0 also adds improved retrospective data entry capabilities to the Patient Chart. Both patient flags and RDE improvements are a work in progress, and we will be adding more features to them in subsequent releases.
