What is Mere Medical

Mere Medical is a self-hosted web app to aggregate and sync all of your medical records from all your doctor and hospital visits in one place. See everything in a timeline view or quickly summarize your records.

Getting Started

Here are some ways to get Mere Medical running on your local computer

Docker Compose

version: '3.9'

services:
  app:
    image: cfu288/mere-medical:latest
    ports:
      - '4200:80'
    environment:
      - ONPATIENT_CLIENT_ID=${ONPATIENT_CLIENT_ID}
      - ONPATIENT_CLIENT_SECRET=${ONPATIENT_CLIENT_SECRET}
      - EPIC_CLIENT_ID=${EPIC_CLIENT_ID}
      - EPIC_SANDBOX_CLIENT_ID=${EPIC_SANDBOX_CLIENT_ID}
      - CERNER_CLIENT_ID=${CERNER_CLIENT_ID}
      - VERADIGM_CLIENT_ID=${VERADIGM_CLIENT_ID}
      - PUBLIC_URL=${PUBLIC_URL}

Local Development

Prerequisites

• npm
• nvm
• Docker
• nx

Installation

1. Clone the repo

   git clone https://github.com/cfu288/mere-medical.git
   

2. Set up NPM and install NPM packages

   nvm install v20.11.0
   nvm use
   npm install
   

3. If Nx is not installed, install it

   npm i nx -g
   

   if you are prompted to run migrations, run the following:

   npx nx migrate --run-migrations
   

4. Create .env files for each project to run and fill with values

   cp apps/api/.example.env apps/api/.env
   

   vim apps/web/src/environments/config.json
   

5. Generate localhost ssl certs

   mkdir -p .dev/certs
   mkcert -key-file .dev/certs/localhost-key.pem -cert-file .dev/certs/localhost.pem localhost
   mkcert -install
   

6. Serve each one on its own:

   npx nx serve web
   npx nx serve api
   

   or together as a full app:

   npx nx run-many --target=serve --projects=api,web
   

7. Run e2e tests

   npx nx run web-e2e:e2e
   

8. Build and serve in docker container:

   docker build -t mere-medical .
   docker run -p 4200:80 -i -t \
     --name mere-medical \
     -e ONPATIENT_CLIENT_ID=<> \
     -e ONPATIENT_CLIENT_SECRET=<> \
     -e EPIC_CLIENT_ID=<> \
     -e EPIC_SANDBOX_CLIENT_ID=<> \
     -e CERNER_CLIENT_ID=<> \
     -e VERADIGM_CLIENT_ID=<ID_HERE> \
     -e PUBLIC_URL=https://localhost:4200 \
     mere-medical:latest
   

Design Goals

1. Respect user autonomy and user control.
2. Prioritize privacy/security and UX - if those are in conflict, ask the user what they would prefer but default to security.
3. Be transparent about decisions on data storage, handling, and usage.
4. Where feasible, build features to be local first (run on the users device). This essentially means client side/offline first. Mere's core functionality should continue to work without any internet connection.
5. For features that cannot be client-side, enable users to self-host server side functionality where feasible. This means that the user should be able to run Mere on their own server and not rely on a third party.
6. Optionally fall back to third party services when self-hosting is not feasible. Should only apply to features that are not core functionality and should always be opt-in.
