ehr-adapter

A Clojure library for declarative, data-driven EHR integrations.

Installation

Add the following dependency to your deps.edn:

io.github.samuelcarriles/ehr-adapter {:mvn/version "1.0.0"}

Or to your project.clj:

[io.github.samuelcarriles/ehr-adapter "1.0.0"]

Core Concepts

1. Data-Driven Architecture: Define your entire adapter using Clojure maps. No classes, no hidden state.
2. Partial Resolution: Use :ref/ keywords to create reusable templates. Static values resolve at initialization; dynamic values resolve at runtime.
3. Thread-Safe Auth: Built-in proactive token refresh with Leader/Follower concurrency pattern.
4. Strict Validation: Runtime validation via Malli ensures your configuration is correct before execution.
5. Extensible: Add custom authentication strategies or middlewares using Clojure's multimethods.

Quick Start

This is how explicit, robust, and readable an adapter configuration looks using Babashka's HTTP client as the core transportation layer:

(require '[ehr-adapter.core :as ehr]
         '[babashka.http-client :as http]
         '[ehr-adapter.middleware.bb-http-client :as bb-middleware])

(def eclinicalworks-adapter-config
  {:domain :eclinicalworks/tenant-beta

   :base-url "https://staging-fhir.ecw.com/fhir/r4"

   :middlewares [bb-middleware/wrap-request-handler]

   :network-config {:request-handler http/request}

   :auth {:initial [{:type :oauth2
                     :token-url "https://staging-fhir.ecw.com/fhir/oauth2/token"
                     :grant-type "client_credentials"
                     :client-id "prod-client-id-xyz"
                     :scopes ["patient/*.read"]
                     :client-secret "super-secure-secret"}]}

   :operations [{:name :get-patient-by-id
                 :method :get
                 :path ["Patient" :ref/patientId]
                 :description "Retrieve a patient by their unique identifier."}]})

;; Initialize the engine
(def adapter (ehr/initialize eclinicalworks-adapter-config))

;; Invoke the operation
(ehr/invoke adapter :get-patient-by-id {:patientId "12345"
                                        :request {:as :json}})
;; => {:status 200, :body {:resourceType "Patient", ...}}
