Previously, we looked for the last instnace of `/[resourceType]` in the path and assumed that was the first thing after the baseUrl. However, if a resourceId happened to match the resource type, this proved erroneous. The updated logic looks for the first instance of `/[resourceType]/` in the path instead. If that doesn't exist, then we fall back to the old approach of using the last index of `/[resourceType]` (now that we know it should be safe to do so). This updated logic could break if someone insisted on including a baseUrl that includes a path segment that matches `/[resourceType]/` (e.g. https://example.com/my/Patient/api/ ) but I think that is an acceptable risk because that would be very dumb to do. Alternatives would be to either A. rely solely on a configured baseUrl; or B. do more processing of the URL to ensure we're stripping a path and not a hostname Signed-off-by: Lee Surprenant <lmsurpre@us.ibm.com>
