Privacy_Server

This little server is developed to solve Privacy_Issue FHIR-Genomics-2 It should make full usage combined with this proxy server

Preparation

sudo pip install -r requirements.txt

sudo apt-get install postgresql

read ./resources/common/db_config.py to settle your own postgresql database after check of configuration, run python setup_db.py to set up database for this server

At this part , however, there might be a huge potential problem: setup_db.py might only create with users of your current user name in UNIX systems, and we don't know how to fix it, you can solve this problem by following the error message and comply with its setting. (The database will be set, yet not belongs to a desired user.)

How to use

run server_index.py and you can use curl to test it

For debug purpose, we recommend you to start with python server_index.py -d

The original port is settled at http://localhost:5000, you can change it in server_index.py

To see how to debug or deploy this server, you can run example.py to see its basic structure

Generally, POST needs at least three arguments:

• Identifier
• resourceType (Which means type of hidden policy)
• Policy

PUT is quite similar , and GET will get a response like this:

{
    "Identifier": "f01f00a3-a38a-4401-a3e4-53c4239badb4", 
    "Resource": {
        "Patient": {
            "gender": "Protected"
        }
    }
}
