RC19 - MU2 Prerelease

awatson1978 · September 24, 2017, 5:14pm

Time for a quarterly maintenance release. This is a smaller release that is focusing on two goals:

getting a new plugin architecture in place that will allow companies to have more clearly defined intellectual property (a common request among people who work with the CLINICAL release track) and which moves more files into the FHIR resources packages.
making sure the release track is up-to-date as we prepare for an end-of-year release of Meaningful Use Stage 2 readiness and full support of all Epic/Cerner packages from the Argonaut project.

Everything else should be mostly the same as RC18. So it’s mostly a maintenance release. Stay tuned for RC20, though, which looking like its going to be the first release we submit to the FDA for precertification.

Software Development Kit
Download the entire Clinical Meteor Software Development Kit, including examples, utilities, design documents, and other resources.

git clone --recursive http://github.com/clinical-meteor/clinical-meteor ClinicalMeteor

Packages Confirmed to Work Together
Each release, we publish a list of packages that are known to work together. As we migrate to NPM, we now have two supported package lists that we are keeping under QA. Use these two files as a baseline for which packages to use.

Atmosphere Package Reference
NPM Package Reference

Usage
Although not necessary to use the individual packages or FHIR resources, you can synchronize an app to the baseline distro by running your app with the --release flag.

meteor --release clinical:METEOR@1.4.2-rc19

Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources
Meteor support for the HL7 FHIR spec can now be included in a project by adding the clinical:hl7-fhir-resources package.

meteor add clinical:hl7-fhir-resources

For individual FHIR resources, use the search command or Atmosphere.

meteor search clinical:hl7-resource
meteor add clinical:hl7-resource-patient  // to add the Patient resource
