This is the base template for using InterSystems IRIS for Health Community Edition as a FHIR Server
It setups a FHIR SERVER, imports the test data, demoes REST API usage with a simple web page.
Make sure you have git and Docker desktop installed.
Open IRIS for Health installation with IPM client installed. Call in any namespace:
USER>zpm "install fhir-server"
This will install FHIR server in FHIRSERVER namespace.
Or call the following for installing programmatically:
set sc=$zpm("install fhir-server")
Clone/git pull the repo into any local directory
$ git clone https://github.com/intersystems-community/iris-fhir-template.git
Open the terminal in this directory and run:
$ docker-compose up -d
The template goes with 5 preloaded patents in /data/fhir folder which are being loaded during docker build You can generate more patients doing the following. Open shel terminal in repository folder and call:
#./synthea-loader.sh 10
this will create 10 more patients in data/fhir folder. Then open IRIS terminal in FHIRSERVER namespace with the following command:
docker-compose exec iris iris session iris -U FHIRServer
and call the loader method:
FHIRSERVER>d ##class(fhirtemplate.Setup).LoadPatientData("/irisdev/app/output/fhir","FHIRSERVER","/fhir/r4")
with using the following project
Open URL http://localhost:32783/fhir/r4/metadata you should see the output of fhir resources on this server
Get fhir resources metadata
GET call for http://localhost:32783/fhir/r4/metadata
Open Postman and make a GET call for the preloaded Patient:
http://localhost:32783/fhir/r4/Patient/1
the very basic frontend app with search and get calls to Patient and Observation FHIR resources could be found here:
http://localhost:32783/fhirUI/FHIRAppDemo.html
or from VSCode ObjectScript menu:
While open the page you will see search result for female anemic patients and graphs a selected patient's hemoglobin values:

The simplest dockerfile which starts IRIS and imports Installer.cls and then runs the Installer.setup method, which creates IRISAPP Namespace and imports ObjectScript code from /src folder into it. Use the related docker-compose.yml to easily setup additional parametes like port number and where you map keys and host folders. Use .env/ file to adjust the dockerfile being used in docker-compose.
Settings file to let you immedietly code in VSCode with VSCode ObjectScript plugin)
Config file if you want to debug with VSCode ObjectScript
ERROR #5001: Error -28 Creating Directory /usr/irissys/mgr/FHIRSERVER/ If you see this error it probably means that you ran out of space in docker. you can clean up it with the following command:
docker system prune -f
And then start rebuilding image without using cache:
docker-compose build --no-cache
and start the container with:
docker-compose up -d
This and other helpful commands you can find in dev.md
