Sabasi is a swahili word meaning "Gossip". Sabasi is an Android app for filling out forms. It is designed to be used in resource-constrained environments with challenges such as unreliable connectivity or power infrastructure. One of the main features is the ability for the user to connect to a server of their choice and have the data stored and retrieved without need of third party access, giving the user full control of the whole process. It is a free and open-source tool which help organizations author, field, and manage mobile data collection solutions.
Sabasi will have a web interface with similar features, but includes a dashboard and download features. It will allow multiple users with different security rights.
-
Download and install Android Studio
-
Fork the Sabasi project (why and how to fork)
-
Clone your fork of the project locally. At the command line:
git clone https://github.com/OpenInstitute/Sabasi.git
If you prefer not to use the command line, you can use Android Studio to create a new project from version control using https://github.com/OpenInstitute/Sabasi.git.
- Open the project in the folder of your clone from Android Studio. To run the project, click on the green arrow at the top of the screen. The emulator is very slow so we generally recommend using a physical device when possible.
Any and all contributions to the project are welcome. Sabasi has been used in the African region by organisations targeting social purpose so you can have real impact! (http://lanet.opencounty.org/).
If you're ready to contribute code, see the contribution guide.
