Description

We have new methods:

harmony.create_instrument_from_list(["a", "b"])
harmony.import_instrument_into_harmony_web(instrument)

Sending data from another website to Harmony using Javascript

We have exposed functionality for external websites to integrate with Harmony and add an "import to Harmony" button, either generated in Javascript or in Python.

  1. Create an Instrument object with at least an instrument_name and questions property in JSON - the questions must have a question_no and question_text properties eg:
{
    "instrument_name": "Smoking behaviour",
    "questions": [
        {
            "question_no": "1",
            "question_text": "Do you currently smoke or have you ever smoked?"
        },
        {
            "question_no": "2",
            "question_text": "[Do you currently use] nicotine replacement therapy?"
        }
    ]
}

Encode it to URL safe base64 string - js-base64 is a good library for this.

Send it to the import URL - to maintain a single instance of the harmony tab / page the target must be set to the harmony URL

Creating a link to Harmony web UI from the Harmony Python library

from harmony import create_instrument_from_list, import_instrument_into_harmony_web

instrument = load_instrument_from_list(["Do you currently smoke or have you ever smoked?", "[Do you currently use] nicotine replacement therapy?"])
web_url = import_instrument_into_harmony_web(instrument)

print (web_url)
