In RobotMermaid/BCRA: Breast Cancer Risk Assessment

Absolute Risk Plumber Runner

This example runs the plumber.io package and loads an api for absolute.risk, relative.risk, check.summary, risk.summary.

Steps

1. open R and run install.packages("plumber")
2. wait... the install took about 10 minutes
3. exit R
4. cd web
5. run Rscript runner.R
6. Open http://localhost:8000/absolute.risk
7. It still has a GET so you can see it in the browser Example query ?age=70biopsies=0&hyperplasia=1&menstruation=10&first_birth=20&relatives=1&race=1&Raw_Ind=1&Avg_White=0
8. Download postman
9. Add http://localhost:8000/absolute.risk to url
10. Set verb to POST
11. Set body to JSON example body { "age": 75, "biopsies":1, "hyperplasia": 1, "menstruation": 19, "first_birth": 40, "relatives": 5, "race": 1, "Raw_Ind": 1, "Avg_White": 0 }

Issues

1. update R to 4
2. get devtools::install_github("trestletech/plumber") to loose error on POST request (needs devtools installed)

To Do

1. replace BCRA files with package/library
2. Add CORS and test over web
3. Deploy - will Heroku handle an R server?
