Contents

  • Python pipelines written with Luigi for processing public FDA data sets (drugs, foods, and medical devices) into a JSON format that can be loaded into Elasticsearch.

  • Elasticsearch schemas for the available data sets.

  • A Node.js API Server written with Express, Elasticsearch.js and Elastic.js that communicates with Elasticsearch and provides the api.fda.gov JSON interface (documented in detail at http://open.fda.gov).

Prerequisites

  • Elasticsearch 1.7.0 or later
  • Python 2.7.*
  • Node 0.10.*
