medco-connector

medco-connector orchestrates the MedCo query at the clinical site. It communicates with medco-unlynx to execute the distributed cryptographic protocols.

Getting started

Run the following commands to download and build the medco-connector module.

git clone https://github.com/ldsec/medco-connector.git
cd medco-connector/deployment/
docker-compose build

How to use it

medco-connector is part of the MedCo stack. To use it, you need to have the whole MedCo stack up and running on your machine. To achieve that you can follow, for example, the Local Development Deployment guide.

The medco-connector APIs are defined using go-swagger. To modify them, you must modify the swagger/medco-connector.yml file. To re-generate the server and client code you can run:

make swagger-gen

How to use the medco-cli-client

medco-connector provides a client command-line interface to interact with the medco-connector APIs.

To learn how to use it, check the CLI documentation.
