Patient search

[f-odhiambo]

User story :
As a CHW, I want to do a basic search for a patient so that I can be able to retrieve their details

Acceptance criteria :

• Filter by First name or Filter by the Last name
• Display results
• On clicking a patient show patient profile view

This is a subtask of #50

@f-odhiambo Is it possible to separate out the portions into sub-issues to bring better visibility to what portion is being worked on by different people?

From the call with Google, it seems like we have some portion of search covered by the SDK already (for full-name matches). The search functionality here seems to be more advanced and I think there's room to incrementally add support for each feature e.g. initially we can support some subset of parameters, then we can add boolean logic (OR, AND) etc.

@rkodev @f-odhiambo in-line w/ @vincent-karuri 's question, can you break down what will be addressed here in fhircore vs in android-fhir?

@jingtang10 @pld @f-odhiambo
At the SDK level, we can have the features

1. Contains Modifier Partial search using modifiers enabled.
2. Allowing any set of filter predicates to be designed i.e AND / OR / AND with NESTED OR e.t.c. This can be done right now
3. Searching by other data types

@jingtang10
We can introduce this later
Reverse chaining. Can be used when filtering patients with an observation / in a CarePlan

At the fhircore level we can add a way to generate the different search combinations using the UI. Also implementing the code that would

@jingtang10 This issue is blocked by partial search. Delivering partial search, that's case insensitive, on patient names should enable mark this issue as done

We will need to at least close search using OR parameters or resolving the bug on the index table reported here to fully resolve this issue google/android-fhir#450

[f-odhiambo]

@rkodev Kindly advise if we should close this issue and create a new ticket for the outstanding work

Update

1. Count PR merged
2. Moving to OR operator - Allow the disjunction of multiple values to match a single search parameter (i.e. name is joe or john) google/android-fhir#292
