The National Data Opt-out Service is a service that allows patients to opt out of their confidential patient information being used for research and planning, the website project consists of multiple repositories (ndop-back-end, ndop-front-end, ndop-nojs)

This is the source code repository for the back end portion of the National Data Opt-out Service.

This repository contains a variety of backend lambda functions, including the following:

• state model lambdas:
  • check-state-model - Lambda used to check a specified state model in ElastiCache
  • delete-state-model - Lambda used to delete a specified state model from ElastiCache
  • get-state-model - Lambda used to get a specified state model from ElastiCache
  • put-state-model - Lambda used to set a specified state model in ElastiCache
  • The state model lambdas are being placed in the same VPC as ElastiCache to control the access to the ElastiCache, any other backend or frontend lambda that needs to read/write to the state model in the ElastiCache can do that through the state model lambdas.

To build the NDOP back end code locally

• clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/nhsconnect/ndop-back-end.git

This repository contains the source code for the backend lambdas, and as such, can not be directly run in a local environment and will need to be deployed into AWS.

To run the unit tests from the command line, run:

make unit-test-python-lambdas

To run coverage from the command line, run:

make coverage-python-lambdas

To run linting from the command line, run:

make lint-python-lambdas
