The Fasten Sources is a library that contains medical provider metadata (definitions - OpenID Metadata documents)
and http clients (OAuth2/Smart-on-FHIR clients) which can be used to retrieve data from various Medical
Providers (clients).
The source data is generated by the fasten-sources-gen project, and then
copied to the catalog folder of this project.
See PLATFORM_LIST.md for a full list of EHR platforms supported by this repo.
See toolbox.fastenhealth.com for a list of all supported Healthcare Providers.
Brands and Portals will be stored and indexed in Elasticsearch. The search engine will be used to find the correct Brand and associated Portals & Endpoints
Definitions are OpenID Metadata documents that are used to configure OAuth2 clients. These definitions contain Endpoint information merged with Platform configuration
There are multiple protocols used by the Medical Provider industry to transfer patient data, the following mechanisms are the ones that Fasten supports
| Definition Folder | Description |
|---|---|
| clients/factory | Automatically created client initializer |
| clients/internal/base | Manually created base OAuth clients for various FHIR versions (R3/R4). These are the base clients that all platforms inherit from. |
| clients/internal/platform | Automatically created OAuth clients for various EMR platforms. Manually created test files |
| clients/internal/sandbox | Automatically created OAuth clients for accessing test FHIR servers full of synthetic data. Manually created test files |
| clients/internal/source | Automatically created OAuth clients for accessing production data from various healthcare institutions. Usually inherit from Platform clients |
| definitions | Automatically created definition files. These files are generated from files created by fasten-sources-gen and are used by Fasten Lighthouse. |
