Sending Two Resposes to openHIM

[Ally Shaban]

Hi All,

I have a process that is called by rapidpro and it is taking long time to finish. The process does not need to send any response data to rapidpro but rapidpro needs to be sent with a 200 code. The issue is that,i want to log to openhim everything that this process is doing,but i cant log to openhim anything after i send back the 200 code to rapidpro. Is there a way i can fix this?

Ally.

Hi Ally

Based on your description it looks like you want the mediator to immediately respond to the OpenHIM with a 200 status code, so that the rapidpro functionality can be executed, but it is taking along time due to other functions being executed. What you can do is to respond to the OpenHIM as soon as the endpoint in the mediator is reached, which will trigger the rapidpro functionality, and then when the other requests are completed, we can added them to the OpenHIM transaction

The OpenHIM allows for a transaction to be updated after it has been completed, but you will need to supply it with the correct header details and transactionID, 
Have a look at the tests that will explain this in more detail: https://github.com/jembi/openhim-core-js/blob/master/test/integration/transactionsAPITests.coffee#L402-L479
you can also see a it being used in our file queue mediator: https://github.com/jembi/openhim-mediator-file-queue/blob/38f595face5fd6a83199b1b22da762c35b7e1c62/lib/worker.js#L111-L154

Warm regards,

Martin
