Develop a pass-through channel to allow the OpenHIM to pass on webs service calls to service providers

Closed this issue 11 years ago · 2 comments

This functionality would allow the OpenHIM to be configured to just pass-through certain web service calls so that security, logging and auditing functionality can be supplied by the HIM but no mediation of the message needs to occur. This functionality would make it easy to include new service providers if they don't need any message processing to happen in the OpenHIM.

A design of how this feature should work can be found here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1AxkwzXIHUIiFZliMnJMCyL46H1RQCiwLXq41ayRbqBM/edit?usp=sharing

+1 for this! would wonder about the config being specified in a file in the long run? maybe a propert in a DB in future versions?

Maybe in future versions. I think a config file makes sense for now as it will likely have to be manually edited. If at some stage we have a UI for this maybe a DB would be better.
