Orthanc-ruby

A Ruby implementation of the Orthanc DICOM server v0.8.6 REST API
Extremely Alpha!! Not ready for production. Anything may change, including resource nesting and naming schemes.

(This is my first API client gem, experienced help or advice would be most appreciated) :)

Installation

NOTE: If you need an instance of Orthanc to test against, you can build a ready-to-use Orthanc server VM with the orthanc-vagrant project.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'orthanc'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install orthanc

Usage

The gem tries to follow the Orthanc API naming scheme as closely as possible, converting methods and response items to snake case to make the experience more ruby-like.

api=Orthanc::Client.new("localhost", "8042")
api.all_patients
api.all_patients.first
api.system.database_version => 5
api.statistics.count_studies => 14

You get the picture.

You can see what Orthanc API resources have been mapped in the gem, and their status here

Basic documentation can be found in here
