Use cohort360 as a cohort builder without data access #464

Problem

Goal: We do not have direct access to our data store from the SNDS at the HAS but we would like to structure, visualize and share cohort descriptions and flowcharts in a similar way than cohort360 does.

Question Is it possible to deploy the cohort360 frontend without any backend, just as cohort designer tool ? That would be super helpful for our analysts here !

Future 🚀: In a second time, we would like to write connectors to translate cohort queries into SNDS compatible code snippets.

Hi @strayMat,

What do you mean by "flowcharts" ?

As of now, it is not possible out of the box to deploy C360 without a backend. The backend stores the Cohorts, their modifications, you can come back to previous versions and more... It is possible to modify the frontend to act differently, but it would ask more work than just running the backend.

This use case seems really cool though!

I've added some documentation here: https://docs.cohort360.org/configurability-and-on-demand-functionalities/back-end

Let's setup a meeting together?

edit: you do not need to store any medical data in the Django backend, and this is not its role.
