PATS Prototype

This is a prototype of the new Patient Advocate system’s push notifications. It’s built with Middleman.

Development

Running it locally

1. First, ensure you have a Ruby environment with Bundler on your computer.
2. In your terminal, cd into this directory and run bundle install.
3. Run bundle exec middleman and go to localhost:4567 in your browser.

Building

After you have successfully run the app locally, use bundle exec middleman build to create a new build. It will be in the /build/ directory.

Features

Notifications

As notifications are the main feature we’re testing with this, a few notifications tools are built into this. If you open the JavaScript console you can push new notifications via the autoNotify() function. If you wish to push a high priority notification you can push autoNotify(1).

Specific notifications can be passed with the notify() function. The structure of the function looks like this: notify('notification', 'firstName', 'lastName', 'caseNumber').

Notifications are scripted on lines 377 through 385 of /source/javascripts.script.js.

Variations

There are two different variations of the prototype. /source/index.html.erb is the variation without styling on the notification indicator and /source/index1.html.erb has added styling around the notification indicator.
