Reference Implementation for the Blue Button Health Record Format

bbClear

A visualization framework for health records, based on bluebutton.js.

bbClear creates self-contained HTML documents that can parse and display the contents of common XML-formatted health records, such as those conforming to the CCDA standard. It assembles assets such as stylesheets, Javascripts, and the XML data, and provides an easy-to-use templating framework based on swig to produce a portable, user-faceable representation of the data.

Getting Started

bbClear comes with a default theme, aptly named 'clear,' so you're able to get moving right away. If you have an XML data file that conforms to CCDA or one of the other formats supported by bluebutton.js, place it in the main directory of this repository and run:

python build.py -f -d <filename>

This will build a BlueButton HTML file in the same directory, named bluebutton.html. Fire this up in your favorite [modern] web browser, and see what it gives you.

Browser support

Currently, bbClear tries to support commonly-used browsers down to IE8. No support is claimed for IE7 or below, or relatively-ancient versions of browsers such as Safari, Firefox, or Chrome.
