Package Exports
- simple-hl7
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (simple-hl7) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
simple-hl7
A simple library for creating HL7 middleware, based on connect & express.
var hl7 = require('simple-hl7');
///////////////////SERVER/////////////////////
var app = hl7.tcp();
app.use(function(req, res, next) {
//req.msg is the HL7 message
console.log('******message received*****')
console.log(req.msg.log());
next();
})
app.use(function(req, res, next){
//res.ack is the ACK
//acks are created automatically
//send the res.ack back
console.log('******sending ack*****')
res.end()
})
app.use(function(err, req, res, next) {
//error handler
//standard error middleware would be
console.log('******ERROR*****')
console.log(err);
var msa = res.ack.getSegment('MSA');
msa.setField(1, 'AR');
res.ack.addSegment('ERR', err.message);
res.end();
});
//Listen on port 7777
app.start(7777); //optionally pass encoding here, app.start(1234, 'latin-1');
///////////////////SERVER/////////////////////
///////////////////CLIENT/////////////////////
var client = hl7.Server.createTcpClient('localhost', 7777);
//create a message
var msg = new hl7.Message(
"EPIC",
"EPICADT",
"SMS",
"199912271408",
"CHARRIS",
["ADT", "A04"], //This field has 2 components
"1817457",
"D",
"2.5"
);
console.log('******sending message*****')
client.send(msg, function(err, ack) {
console.log('******ack received*****')
console.log(ack.log());
});
///////////////////CLIENT/////////////////////Installation
$ npm install simple-hl7Features
- Parser
- Message Builder/Editor API
- Server/Client components for TCP and File System Based Interfaces
Philosophy
Make HL7 interfaces and middleware as easy as express web servers.
