HRIS

Human Resource Information System(HRIS)is a software that enables organisations to collect, validate, analyse and present raw and statistical human resource information for reporting, analysis and decision making. It is a generic software tool that allows customization to fit organization specific requirements, its built with open meta-data models and flexible and customizable user interface that allows user to adjust the system to peform, behave, look and feel based on organisation's specific requirements without the need for software development.

HRIS Software is a loosely coupled modular web based software bundle that is built with free and open source Java Web Frameworks. Among the frameworks involved are

Spring Boot Web Framework
JPA/ Hibernate for persistence
GraphQl and REST for managing API calls
Maven Dependency Manager

Project Configurations

To use this software for testing and development, clone this repository to your drive and edit the file with the path

hris/src/main/resources/application.properties

to suit your machine:

spring.datasource.url=jdbc:postgres://localhost:5432/hris
spring.datasource.username=
spring.datasource.password=

and create a database with the name 'hris'. Open the link

http://localhost:8080/graphiql

Check out the mutations and queries defined in the GraphQL schemas found in the directory below for the possible API operations that can be perfomed with this API or at the Docs link in the graphiql interface at the address above.

/hris/src/main/resources/graphql

Accessing the Hris api

Using the rest api

You can access the hris api using the rest api via the url:

http://localhost:8080/api/

An example of a get request would be:

http://localhot:8080/api/users.json/?fields=id,uid,email

Using the graphql service

Using the graphql interface json POST request of the form:

{"query":"{Users{id uid}}"}

can be sent to the uri

http://localhost:8080/graphiql

The following the are the sample of the queries that can be sent:

mutation{
      newUser(organisationunitId:4, username:"testing",usernameCanonical:"tester", email:"[email protected]",       emailCanonical:"[email protected]",
      enabled:"true", salt:"true", password:"my_password", locked:1,expired:1, confirmationToken:"ndsfgldfkgns34535",
      roles:"admin", credentialsExpired:1, uid:"34534",
      phonenumber:"0754008843", jobtitle:"Singer", firstname:"Lazarus", middlename:"Andrew", surname:"Jake",
      description:"We are about to finish this"){
            organisationunitId
            username
            email
      }
    }

A sample query can be like:

{
users{
    id
    username
    email
     }
}

Instead of using the graphiql interface the same responce above can be initiated via a HTTP post to hrhis.hisptz.org/graphql.

{
    "query":"{users{id, username, email}}"
}

The following are queries to achieve differently desired responces:

mutation{

  newFieldDataType(name:"FieldOne",description:"SDfaf",uid:"343"){ # Create a new FieldDataType record
    name
    id
    description
  }

  newInputType(name:"InputOne",uid:"2323",htmltag:"23143", description:"This"){ # Create a new InputType record
    name
    id
    description
  }

  newFormSection(description:"fegsfgs",formId:993,uid:"343",name:"adfa"){  # Create a new FormSection record
     description
     id
  }

   newFieldGroup(description:"This is the test "){
    id
    description
    fields{
      dataType{
        name
        description
      }
    }
  }

  newField(datatypeId:3, compulsory:"true", dataType:1, inputType:1,fieldGroup:1){ # Create a new Field record
    uid
    fieldGroups{
      fields{
        caption
        compulsory
      }
    }
    dataType{
      name
      description
    }
   caption
    inputType{
      name
    }
  }



  updateField(id:1, compulsory:"false", uid:"Hey Eliah is me"){  # update the field 
    compulsory
    uid
  }


  updateFieldGroup(id:1, field:1){  # update the field group and add a new field 
    description
    fields{
      uid
      compulsory
      dataType{
        name
        description
      }
    }
  }


}
