Node FHIR client library
- Support for R4 (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
- 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
Examples using promises...
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);
});
// 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...
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);
}

JSDoc-generated documentation with plenty of examples
To see how to follow launch and authorization workflows for FHIR applications, see the examples directory and examples README.
FHIRKit Create React App provides a create-react-app template that can be used to create a sample React app using FHIRKit Client.
The debug library 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
