# FHIRKit Client
[](https://badge.fury.io/js/fhir-kit-client)
[](https://github.com/Vermonster/fhir-kit-client/actions/workflows/node.js.yml)
[](https://coveralls.io/github/Vermonster/fhir-kit-client?branch=master)

Node FHIR client library
## Features
* Support for R4 (4.0.1, 4.0.0, 3.5.0, 3.3.0, 3.2.0), STU3 (3.0.1, 1.8.0, 1.6.0, 1.4.0, 1.1.0) and DSTU2 (1.0.2)
* Support for all FHIR REST actions
* Support for FHIR operations
* Typescript support
* Pagination support for search results
* Batch and transaction support
* Support for absolute, in-bundle, and contained references
* Metadata caching on client instance
* SMART security support
* Capability-checking tool based on server capability statements
* Minimal dependencies
* Contemporary async/await structure
* Modern ES6 Classes
* TDD with Mocha
* URL polyfill (so it works in client-only apps without much trouble)
* Support optional parameters for the request, such as TLS key and cert
## Roadmap
Project roadmap uses [Github Projects](https://github.com/Vermonster/fhir-kit-client/projects/1).
## Typescript Support
There is now early Typescript support for this library. This library is
intended to be agnostic to the version of FHIR, but there is a WIP pattern to
use with @types/fhir.
Assume a project where you did the following setup:
```
> npm install fhir-kit-client
> npm install -D @types/fhir
```
Now in your code, you can:
```typescript
import Client from 'fhir-kit-client'
const client = new Client({ baseUrl: 'http://foo.com' })
const isPatient = (resource: fhir4.Resource): resource is fhir4.Patient => {
return resource.resourceType === 'Patient'
}
client
.read({resourceType: 'Patient', id: '12'})
.then(res => {
if (isPatient(res)) {
console.dir(res.name, { depth: 4})
}
})
```
This example uses a type guard for R4 Patient. If you are building an app that
connects to systems with different versions, you could write a wrapper for each
fhir version in your app.
## Examples
Examples using promises...
```javascript
const Client = require('fhir-kit-client');
const fhirClient = new Client({
baseUrl: 'https://sb-fhir-stu3.smarthealthit.org/smartstu3/open'
});
// Get SMART URLs for OAuth
fhirClient.smartAuthMetadata().then((response) => {
console.log(response);
});
// Direct request
fhirClient.request('Patient/123')
.then(response => console.log(response));
fhirClient.request('Patient/123', { method: 'DELETE' })
.then(response => console.log(response));
// Read a patient
fhirClient
.read({ resourceType: 'Patient', id: '2e27c71e-30c8-4ceb-8c1c-5641e066c0a4' })
.then((response) => {
console.log(response);
});
// Search for patients, and page through results
fhirClient
.search({ resourceType: 'Patient', searchParams: { _count: '3', gender: 'female' } })
.then((response) => {
console.log(response);
return response;
})
.then((response) => {
console.log(response);
return fhirClient.nextPage(response);
})
.then((response) => {
console.log(response);
return fhirClient.prevPage(response);
})
.catch((error) => {
console.error(error);
});
```
Examples using async/await...
```javascript
const Client = require('fhir-kit-client');
const fhirClient = new Client({
baseUrl: 'https://sb-fhir-stu3.smarthealthit.org/smartstu3/open'
});
async function asyncExamples() {
// Get SMART URLs for OAuth
let response = await fhirClient.smartAuthMetadata();
console.log(response);
// Read a patient
response = await fhirClient
.read({ resourceType: 'Patient', id: '2e27c71e-30c8-4ceb-8c1c-5641e066c0a4' });
console.log(response);
// Search for a patient with name matching abbott, then paging
let searchResponse = await fhirClient
.search({ resourceType: 'Patient', searchParams: { name: 'abbott ' } })
console.log(searchResponse);
searchResponse = await fhirClient.nextPage(searchResponse);
console.log(searchResponse);
searchResponse = await fhirClient.prevPage(searchResponse);
console.log(searchResponse);
}
asyncExamples();
```
For more examples see the JS Docs and Launch Examples below.
## Documentation
[JSDoc-generated documentation with plenty of examples](https://vermonster.github.io/fhir-kit-client/fhir-kit-client/1.9.2/index.html)
## Launch Examples (SMART, CDS Hooks)
To see how to follow launch and authorization workflows for FHIR applications,
see the [examples directory](./examples/) and [examples README](./examples/README.md).
## Example React App
[FHIRKit Create React App](https://github.com/Vermonster/fhir-kit-create-react)
provides a [create-react-app](https://github.com/facebook/create-react-app)
template that can be used to create a sample React app using FHIRKit Client.
## Even more Examples (client-side ones)
See https://github.com/Vermonster/fhir-kit-client-examples for examples in React,
Angular, and React Native.
## Logging
The [debug library](https://www.npmjs.com/package/debug) can provide logging
during development. Two different logging namespaces are provided, `fhir-kit-
client:info` logs each request and response, and `fhir-kit-client:error` logs
errors. To enable logging during development, add one of the namespaces to the
DEBUG environment variable, or use `fhir-kit-client:*` to enable both.
```
$ DEBUG=fhir-kit-client:* node smart-launch.js
```
