clinical:example-plugin

This is an example plugin for Meteor on FHIR (and Symptomatic) that illustrates how to create a REST endpoint, database collection, server side publication, client side subscription, and a reactive user interface. When implemented, you can ping the REST endpoint, and it will automatically update the user interface.

Clone the Example Plugin

cd webapp/packages
git clone https://github.com/clinical-meteor/example-plugin  

Customize the Plugin

# Step 1 - Rename package folder
packages/example-plugin

# Step 2 - Update package name, description
packages/my-plugin/package.js

# Step 3 - Customize the HelloWorld Page
packages/my-plugin/client/HelloWorldPage.jsx

# Step 4 - Update your routes if you wish
packages/my-plugin/index.jsx

# Step 5 - Edit the settings file; add custom route, etc.
packages/my-plugin/configs/settings.example.jsx

Run Meteor on FHIR with your plugin

# add your package
meteor add foo:my-plugin
meteor npm install

# run with a custom settings file
meteor --settings packages/my-plugin/configs/settings.example.json

Example: Body Mass Index - Data Pipeline

The BodyMassIndex calculator relies on SMART on FHIR to fetch FHIR Patient and FHIR Observation resources. We then create a FHIR RiskAssessment for obesity. When fetching from an upstream FHIR Server, the overall data architecture and sequence diagram looks like the following.
