eligible-node

Node.js bindings for Eligible APIs (https://eligible.com). Eligible is built for developers needing HIPAA compliant connectivity to health insurance companies.

You can request an account at https://eligible.com/request-access

Documentation

Refer to https://eligible.com/rest for full documentation on Eligible APIs, their request parameters and expected response formats.

Requirements

Node.js 0.12 and above

Installation

npm install eligible-node --save

Usage

Create instance

First create an Eligible object by passing your api key. You can pass the api key directly or as an object. You may also load your api key from environment variables.


var Eligible = require('eligible-node');

// Get values from environment variables if nothing is passed in arguments
// available env variables: ELIGIBLE_API_KEY, ELIGIBLE_IS_TEST
var eligible = Eligible();

//or, pass them as object:
var eligible = Eligible({
    apiKey: 'foobar',
    isTest: true
});

//or, pass Config object
var config = new Eligible.Config;
config.setApiKey('foobar')
config.setTest(true);
var eligible = Eligible(config);

Test Mode

To make the Eligible as explorable as possible, accounts have test-mode as well as live-mode. See above example to enable test mode on any of your requests and hit the sandbox.

Example

Complete example on how to use the library:


var Eligible = require('eligible-node');
var eligible = Eligible({
    apiKey: 'n5Cddnj2KST6YV9J2l2ztQQ2VrdPfzA4JPbn',
    isTest: true
});

// Retrieve a payer and it's search options

eligible.Payer.retrieve('62308')
  .then(function(payer){
    console.log(payer.payer_id);
    return payer.searchOptions(); //retrieve search options
  })
  .then(function(searchOptions){
    console.log(searchOptions)
  })
  .catch(Eligible.APIConnectionError, function(e){
    console.log('Connection Error');
  })
  .catch(Eligible.AuthenticationError, function(e){
      console.log('Authentication Error', e.message, e.code, e.response);
  })
  .catch(Eligible.InvalidRequestError, function(e){
      console.log('InvalidRequestError', e.message, e.code, e.response);
  })
  .catch(function(e){
    console.log(e);
  });

Testing

Use the following commands to run tests or test coverage:

ELIGIBLE_API_KEY=API_KEY npm test
ELIGIBLE_API_KEY=API_KEY npm run coverage

Note that, by default running above commands will mock HTTP requests using nock library. To disable mocking and make actaul calls against eligible server, pass NOCK_OFF=true enviroment variable:

NOCK_OFF=true npm test

To filter tests, update grep field in test/mocha.opts.

Developing

To work on the library:

Fork it
Create your feature branch (git checkout -b my-new-feature)
Install dependencies: npm install
Fix bugs or add features. Make sure the changes pass the coding guidelines by runing: npm run lint or npm run watch
Write tests for your new features. For HTTP mocking nock library is used. Nock definitions are saved in test/fixtures directory
Run test by npm test or npm run coverage
If all tests are passed, push to the branch (git push origin my-new-feature)
Create new Pull Request
