MatchMinerCurate is a realtime trial curation platform by using Clinical Trial Markup Language (CTML) to label patient-specific genomic and clinical data, and structured eligibility criteria for clinical trials. We use Firebase realtime database to store all trials.

It is necessary to install and configure the following dependencies:

1. Node.js: We use Node to run a development web server and build the project. Depending on your system, you can install Node either from source or as a pre-packaged bundle.
2. Yarn: We use Yarn to manage Node dependencies. Depending on your system, you can install Yarn either from source or as a pre-packaged bundle.

After installing Node, you should be able to run the following command to install development tools. You will only need to run this command when dependencies change in package.json.

yarn install

1. Go to Firebase Console and login with your Google account.
2. Create a new project by clicking "Add Project".
3. Choose sign-in method and add domain. Click "Authentication" under "Develop" section on the left panel and choose Sign-in method tab, enable Google as default login method. Of course, you are welcome to try other sign-in providers. Next, add your domain name in Authorized domains like "localhost".

Note: Please store all trials in a list named Trials.

1. Prepare files for front-end.

   cp src/main/webapp/app/environments/environment.example.ts src/main/webapp/app/environments/environment.ts
   

2. Go to Authentication page in Firebase console, click Web setup button and Firebase config will pop up. Copy required fields to environments.ts.

   apiKey: "[API-KEY]",
   authDomain: "[PROJECT-ID].firebaseapp.com",
   databaseURL: "https://[PROJECT-ID].firebaseio.com",
   projectId: "[PROJECT-ID]",
   storageBucket: "[PROJECT-ID].appspot.com",
   messagingSenderId: "[SENDER-ID]",

We use yarn scripts and Webpack as our build system.

Run the following command in a terminal to create a blissful development experience where your browser auto-refreshes when files change on your hard drive.

yarn start

Yarn is also used to manage CSS and JavaScript dependencies used in this application. You can upgrade dependencies by specifying a newer version in package.json. You can also run yarn update and yarn install to manage dependencies. Add the help flag on any command to see how you can use it. For example, yarn help update.

The yarn run command will list all of the scripts available to run for this project.

To optimize the matchminerCurate application for production, run:

./mvnw -Pprod clean package

This will concatenate and minify the client CSS and JavaScript files. It will also modify index.html so it references these new files. To ensure everything worked, run:

java -jar target/*.war

Then navigate to http://localhost:8090 in your browser.

Refer to Using JHipster in production for more details.

You can decide who has read and write access to your database by setting Firebase Realtime Database Rules.

There is an example below to show how to assign permission for users in the WhiteList to read and write data in Trials list.

{
  "rules": {
    "Trials": {
      ".read": "root.child('WhiteList').val().contains(auth.email)",
      ".write": "root.child('WhiteList').val().contains(auth.email)"
    }, 
    "WhiteList": {
      ".read": false,
      ".write": false
    }  
  }
}

Firebase provides service to auto-backup database everyday. You can turn on auto-backup by clicking Backup tab on "Database" page.

You may pay for auto-backup. Firebase will charge money for backup files placed in Google Cloud Storage bucket. For realtime database, you will be charged once data storage is over 1 GB.

You can enable storage 30 day lifecycle, which means files in your bucket will be automatically deleted after 30 days. This helps to reduce unwanted old backups, saving you on storage costs, and keeping your bucket directory clean.

For example, to add Leaflet library as a runtime dependency of your application, you would run following command:

yarn add --exact leaflet

To benefit from TypeScript type definitions from DefinitelyTyped repository in development, you would run following command:

yarn add --dev --exact @types/leaflet

Then you would import the JS and CSS files specified in library's installation instructions so that Webpack knows about them: Edit src/main/webapp/app/vendor.ts file:

import 'leaflet/dist/leaflet.js';

Edit src/main/webapp/content/css/vendor.css file:

@import '~leaflet/dist/leaflet.css';

Note: there are still few other things remaining to do for Leaflet that we won't detail here.

For further instructions on how to develop with JHipster, have a look at Using JHipster in development.

You can also use Angular CLI to generate some custom client code.

For example, the following command:

ng generate component my-component

will generate few files:

create src/main/webapp/app/my-component/my-component.component.html
create src/main/webapp/app/my-component/my-component.component.ts
update src/main/webapp/app/app.module.ts

Swagger-Codegen is configured for this application. You can generate API code from the src/main/resources/swagger/api.yml definition file by running:

./mvnw generate-sources

Then implements the generated interfaces with @RestController classes.

To edit the api.yml definition file, you can use a tool such as Swagger-Editor. Start a local instance of the swagger-editor using docker by running: docker-compose -f src/main/docker/swagger-editor.yml up -d. The editor will then be reachable at http://localhost:7742.

Refer to Doing API-First development for more details.

To launch your application's tests, run:

./mvnw clean test

Unit tests are run by Karma and written with Jasmine. They're located in src/test/javascript/ and can be run with:

yarn test

For more information, refer to the Running tests page.

You can use Docker to improve your JHipster development experience. A number of docker-compose configuration are available in the src/main/docker folder to launch required third party services.

For example, to start a mongodb database in a docker container, run:

docker-compose -f src/main/docker/mongodb.yml up -d

To stop it and remove the container, run:

docker-compose -f src/main/docker/mongodb.yml down

You can also fully dockerize your application and all the services that it depends on. To achieve this, first build a docker image of your app by running:

./mvnw verify -Pprod dockerfile:build

Then run:

docker-compose -f src/main/docker/app.yml up -d

For more information refer to Using Docker and Docker-Compose, this page also contains information on the docker-compose sub-generator (jhipster docker-compose), which is able to generate docker configurations for one or several JHipster applications.

To configure CI for your project, run the ci-cd sub-generator (jhipster ci-cd), this will let you generate configuration files for a number of Continuous Integration systems. Consult the Setting up Continuous Integration page for more information.
