How can I use node-fhir-server-core in web app with local storage?

Question

I'm working on a patient record web app, but I want to allow the user to store the information on their pc/mobile device until they decide to push it to a server. I looked at node-fhir-server-core, but it is not clear if a web page's localstorage could be 'plugged-in' to the architecture.

Answer 1

So roughly your patient record app is made up of 2 parts, the server which is a central store for all your patient's data and the app which runs on the patient's pc or phone.

Now the node fhir server being one part of your solution is separate to your web app's pages. Your web app's pages act as a client to the node fhir server and in these pages you will have to implement the localstorage solution to store the requests/data until such a time a user wants to send them to the node fhir server.

I hope that makes sense?
