🎯 Quick Start

Basic Usage

import { 
  User, 
  UserRole, 
  UserStatus,
  validateSchema,
  UserSchemas 
} from 'emr-types';

// Create a user with type safety
const user: User = {
  id: 'user-123' as any, // Branded type
  email: '[email protected]',
  firstName: 'John',
  lastName: 'Doe',
  role: 'doctor',
  status: 'active',
  tenantId: 'tenant-123' as any,
  createdAt: new Date(),
  updatedAt: new Date()
};

// Validate data at runtime
const userData = {
  email: '[email protected]',
  firstName: 'John',
  lastName: 'Doe',
  role: 'doctor',
  tenantId: 'tenant-123'
};

const result = validateSchema(UserSchemas.CreateUserRequest, userData);
if (result.success) {
  console.log('Valid user data:', result.data);
} else {
  console.log('Validation errors:', result.errors);
}

Form Handling

import { 
  FormField, 
  FormFieldType, 
  FormState,
  createFormValidator,
  UserSchemas 
} from 'emr-types';

// Create type-safe form fields
const userForm: FormField[] = [
  {
    name: 'email',
    label: 'Email',
    type: FormFieldType.EMAIL,
    value: '',
    required: true
  },
  {
    name: 'firstName',
    label: 'First Name',
    type: FormFieldType.TEXT,
    value: '',
    required: true
  }
];

// Create form validator
const validateUserForm = createFormValidator(UserSchemas.CreateUserRequest);

// Form state management
const formState: FormState = {
  values: { email: '', firstName: '' },
  errors: {},
  touched: {},
  dirty: {},
  focused: {},
  isValid: false,
  isDirty: false,
  isSubmitting: false,
  isSubmitted: false,
  submitCount: 0
};

Date/Time Management

import { 
  calculateAge, 
  calculateDuration,
  isInBusinessHours,
  AppointmentTimeSlot 
} from 'emr-types';

// Calculate patient age
const birthDate = new Date('1990-01-01');
const age = calculateAge(birthDate);
console.log(`Patient age: ${age.years} years, ${age.months} months`);

// Appointment time slot
const appointment: AppointmentTimeSlot = {
  start: new Date('2024-01-01T09:00:00Z'),
  end: new Date('2024-01-01T10:00:00Z'),
  duration: 60,
  isAvailable: true,
  isBooked: false
};

// Check business hours
const businessHours = {
  start: '09:00',
  end: '17:00',
  daysOfWeek: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5], // Monday to Friday
  timezone: 'America/New_York'
};

const isAvailable = isInBusinessHours(appointment.start, businessHours);

🏗️ Architecture

Domain-Driven Design

The library follows Domain-Driven Design principles with clear bounded contexts:

• User Domain: User management, roles, and authentication
• Tenant Domain: Multi-tenant support and configuration
• Patient Domain: Patient management and medical history
• Appointment Domain: Appointment scheduling and management
• Medical Record Domain: Medical records, diagnoses, and procedures
• Shared Domain: Common types and utilities

Type Safety

• Branded Types: Secure ID types with branded strings
• Union Types: Flexible union types for enums and status values
• Generic Types: Comprehensive generic type system
• Conditional Types: Advanced conditional type logic

Runtime Validation

• Zod Schemas: Complete schema definitions for all types
• Custom Validation: Healthcare-specific validation rules
• Error Handling: Detailed error messages and field-specific errors
• Batch Validation: Batch validation capabilities

📚 API Reference

Core Types

// User Domain
import { User, UserRole, UserStatus } from 'emr-types';

// Tenant Domain
import { Tenant, TenantType, TenantStatus } from 'emr-types';

// Patient Domain
import { Patient, Gender, BloodType } from 'emr-types';

// Appointment Domain
import { Appointment, AppointmentType, AppointmentStatus } from 'emr-types';

// Medical Record Domain
import { MedicalRecord, Diagnosis, Prescription } from 'emr-types';

Validation

import { 
  validateSchema, 
  safeParse, 
  isValid,
  UserSchemas,
  TenantSchemas,
  PatientSchemas 
} from 'emr-types';

// Validate user data
const result = validateSchema(UserSchemas.CreateUserRequest, userData);

// Safe parse with error handling
const parsed = safeParse(UserSchemas.User, userData);

// Quick validation check
const isValidUser = isValid(UserSchemas.User, userData);

Form Utilities

import { 
  FormField, 
  FormState, 
  FormFieldType,
  createFormValidator,
  isFormValid,
  isFormDirty 
} from 'emr-types';

// Create form validator
const validateForm = createFormValidator(UserSchemas.CreateUserRequest);

// Check form state
const isValid = isFormValid(formState);
const isDirty = isFormDirty(formState);

Date/Time Utilities

import { 
  calculateAge, 
  calculateDuration,
  toISODateString,
  parseISODateString,
  isInBusinessHours 
} from 'emr-types';

// Age calculation
const age = calculateAge(birthDate);

// Duration calculation
const duration = calculateDuration(startDate, endDate);

// ISO date handling
const isoDate = toISODateString(date);
const parsedDate = parseISODateString('2024-01-01');

🧪 Testing

Type Testing

import { expectType } from 'tsd';
import { User, UserRole } from 'emr-types';

// Test type inference
expectType<User>({
  id: 'user-123' as any,
  email: '[email protected]',
  firstName: 'John',
  lastName: 'Doe',
  role: 'admin',
  status: 'active',
  tenantId: 'tenant-123' as any,
  createdAt: new Date(),
  updatedAt: new Date()
});

// Test enum values
expectType<UserRole>('admin');

Runtime Testing

import { UserSchemas, validateSchema } from 'emr-types';

describe('User Validation', () => {
  it('should validate valid user data', () => {
    const userData = {
      email: '[email protected]',
      firstName: 'John',
      lastName: 'Doe',
      role: 'doctor',
      tenantId: 'tenant-123'
    };
    
    const result = validateSchema(UserSchemas.CreateUserRequest, userData);
    expect(result.success).toBe(true);
  });
});
