Topic: Push IG NPM package into FHIR servers
Richard Stanley (Apr 21 2021 at 13:50):
Hi folks. I'm looking for an existing (preferably open source) tool that can push FHIR IG NPM packages (.tgz) built by Publisher into a FHIR server. With IGs being fundamental to FHIR, and the NPM IG packaging being the supported approach, I would find it odd if such a tool does not already exist. SmileCDR has an API to ingest NPM packages, but I'm looking to push and prefer non-proprietary.

this is probably a question for #bulk data really.

@Grahame Grieve Sorry, I didn't explain the use case well enough, this is not for bulk import (I asked in that channel). I want to publish an IG and POST/PUT the generated conformance resources to a FHIR server. That's it. IG are packaged as FHIR NPM but, there's no obvious open source tooling to POST/PUT those conformance resources to a server. I'm curious that this hasn't come up - it seems (to me) to be an obvious workflow. I'm happy to be educated otherwise. (Like others, I can break out a programming language and have a go at parsing package.json. In my use case, I need to POST/PUT several IGs and for several FHIR servers in a QA/E2E situation)
