CLI Client app for Bulk Data Import

This is an app that can ping (kick-off) Bulk Data imports pn behalf of a Data Provider as described here. To do so, it must be registered as a client at the Data Consumer site.

Installation

git clone https://github.com/smart-on-fhir/bulk-import-client.git
cd bulk-import-client

Once you are into the project folder, make sure you are using NodeJS >= 15. If you have nvm just run nvm use. Then install the dependencies:

npm i

Configuration

Rename the file example.env to .env and edit is as needed. The default configuration connects this app to the prototype server at https://bulk-import-consumer.herokuapp.com/, which imports data from the reference bulk data server at https://bulk-data.smarthealthit.org/. See comments in the config file for further instructions.

Usage

The basic usage is (from within the project folder):

node . -e 'https://bulk-data.smarthealthit.org/fhir/$export'

This tells the (pre-configured) Data Consumer server to start a dynamic import from the bulk data server at "https://bulk-data.smarthealthit.org/fhir/$export".

For more options run:

node . --help
