Medical Laboratory Service is a secure RESTful application that allows patients to access their laboratory test results online. The application's endpoints are protected using JSON Web Tokens, ensuring that only authorized users can access sensitive medical data. The application stores user personal data, as well as diagnostic results. Users after authorization can simply view and download their results online. In addition, the application allows patients to browse available examinations that are offered by the laboratory. This application is specifically designed to be used by medical laboratories.
The application currently uses the following frameworks and technologies:
- Spring Boot: Web, Data JPA, Test, Validation
- Endpoints secured using Spring Security with JSON Web Tokens (JWT)
- Hibernate
- Unit tests with: JUnit, Mockito, AssertJ
- PostgreSQL + H2 for unit tests
- Flyway
- Lombok
- Maven
- Swagger
In this service I have used my own PESEL validation library to ensure the correctness of PESEL numbers. The library has been published on Maven Central Repository and is accessible for everyone to use. You can check out the library's code here.
To run the application, you need to have Postgres installed. You can create a database named medical, or use a different one by updating the configuration in application.yml. Make sure to also check the username and password for the database.
Before starting the application, you need to set an environment variable named MEDICAL_SECRET_KEY with a 256-bit hex encryption key or copy the one from application-test.yml and paste it into application.yml.
To start the application, you can either run the MedicalLaboratoryApplication class, or type ./mvnw spring-boot:run in your IDE terminal.
Once the application is running, you can test it by sending requests to the endpoints using tools like Postman. The application runs on http://localhost:8080/
Keep in mind that the application is secured with JWT token. To access the endpoints, you need to either register a new user at http://localhost:8080/medical/auth/register, or use the provided test user with user privileges (login: testuser, password: testpassword) or the test admin user (login: testadmin, password: testpassword).
Next, I plan to add user and admin views to the application using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
