RCPCH Repo Map
A guide to repositories found in the RCPCH GitHub Organisation.
rcpch-private¶
This repository is for items related to the whole RCPCH Incubator, covering all projects.
Digital Growth Charts (dGC)¶
The RCPCH has developed digital versions of paper child growth charts, previously used for decades. We separated the dGC platform into different repositories to enable digital charts to work in various use cases and reduce development complexity.
Principal Repos¶
These repositories are vital to the functioning of the dGC platform.
| Repo | Description |
|---|---|
| rcpchgrowth-python | Houses the calculation functions of the growth charts in a Python package (also available on PyPi as a standalone Python library). |
| digital-growth-charts-server | The RCPCH Growth API server, which uses rcpchgrowth-python internally to perform these calculations, which it serves as a REST API. |
| digital-growth-charts-react-component-library | A React.js library which 'knows' how to display the results from the REST API, as a familiar digital growth chart. |
| digital-growth-charts-hazard-log | The Hazard Log for our dGC clinical service - and is where we can discuss and mitigate all aspects of the risks associated with the clinical software and its deployment. |
Ancillary Repos¶
These repositories are support or ancillary services and data collections.
| Repo | Description |
|---|---|
| digital-growth-charts-upptime | A GitHub Actions-based uptime monitor to check the services are up and display cumulative uptime. |
| growth-references | A repository containing the raw data from the statistical references which are used to generate growth chart information. It is mainly of interest to academics and stats nerds. |
| digital-growth-charts-react-native-client | A work in progress, pre-alpha React Native version of the charts display, which is designed to work better on smaller mobile screens. It was experimental and is not an official part of the project. |
| digital-growth-charts-google-sheets-plugin | This is a plugin aimed mostly at researchers with growth data wanting to calculate centiles and SDS. It will be published as an addin for google sheets. |
Deprecated dGC repos¶
-
digital-growth-charts-react-client-node-server - a Node.js server was briefly used to proxy requests between the demo site and the live server API, to allow us to inject API access credentials into the requests securely. Deprecated because the Gravitee.io API Management platform is much better than the old Azure one, so we don't need this.
-
digital-growth-charts-flask-client - the original Flask implementation of the Growth Chart API, which also at one stage included the display elements of the charts. We elected later to separate the display from the API and re-platform the API onto FastAPI.
-
digital-growth-charts-react-chart-library - the first version of the React charts, superseded by digital-growth-charts-react-component-library which allowed the charts to be shipped as a standalone React Component.
Audit Engine¶
Principal Repos¶
| Repo | Description |
|---|---|
| rcpch-audit-engine | The RCPCH Audit Engine is a generic framework for national clinical audits. Its first deployment is as a new platform for the RCPCH's established Epilepsy12 audit, but it is designed so as to be reusable for other audits in the future. |
| epilepsy12-documentation | Documentation site for the E12 Project. |
Ancillary Repos¶
| Repo | Description |
|---|---|
| rcpch-census-platform | This Django Rest Framework project provides UK Census data, especially Index of Multiple Deprivation, as a service. It is a dependency for The RCPCH Audit Engine. |
