The [NIAS2AG](https://github.com/nsip/nias2ag) repository hosts NIAS open-source components to be used for Australian Government data collections.

# 1. Overview

NIAS is a suite of open-source components designed to enable as many different users as possible to quickly and easily solve issues of system integration using the Australian [SIF Data Model](http://specification.sifassociation.org/Implementation/AU/1.4/html/) for school education.

numbers of students in the results & reporting file, you will need to increase your `ulimit` setting; we recommend 2048.

# 3. Code Structure

See also [NAPRR readme](./naprr/README.md), [NAPLVAL readme](./napval/README.md)

NIAS2 relies on the following infrastructure:
* [ledis](http://ledisdb.com), a NoSQL database similar to [redis](http://redis.io)
* xmllint, an XML validator included in the [libxml](http://xmlsoft.org) package
See also [dev-nrt readme](./naprr/README.md), [NAPVAL readme](./napval/README.md)

`unit_test_files/`
* Contains files used in unit/integration testing of the code. Currently restricted to CSV files input into the validation module.

`build.sh`, `build/`, `release.sh`
* `build.sh` builds all NIAS2 executables for the various supported platforms
* `build_sms.sh` builds the SSF and SMS application
* `build_napval.sh` builds the NAPVAL application
* `build_naprrql.sh` builds the NAPRRQL application
The builds for each platform are built in `build/{PLATFORM}/{APP}/`.

#### The supported platforms are:
* Mac OSX
* Windows 32 bit
* Windows 64 bit
* Linux 32 bit
* Linux 64 bit
