SMART reDirect

A simple service to:

1. Listen for incoming messages on a Direct server
2. Identify C-CCDA attachments, and
3. Forward them to a specified address.

This is a quick hack and a useful bridge. Currently relies on the Direct Java Reference Implemenation version 2.1, with the IncomingMessageSaveFolder debug setting enabled. It works by monitoring a directory for new (e-mail) files.

Run it with three variables (passed via the command line, or as environment variables):

• Source Directory (local dir where new e-mail files appear): --source_dir or export SOURCE_DIR
• Progress Directory (local dir where progress can be recorded): --progress_dir or export PROGRESS_DIR
• CCDA POST URL ( URL template to which files should be posted): --ccda_post_url or export CCDA_POST_URL

Note: the CCDA POST URL can use the following template variables: from, to. For example, if you want to process C-CDAs based on the recipient (to) address, you can use a CCDA POST URL like http://my-server.com/incoming/ccda/for-user/{to}.

This is designed to run in the context of the Direct Java Reference Implementation. You can install the whole shebang automatically with ansible:
