Searching by product name and receiving list of pharmacies that sell matching items (Node.js)

In this use case, the user types the name of a pharmaceutical product on a search bar and expects a list of stores that sell the items matching his search. This sort of result appears in the case of retail aggregator BPPs that have onboarded multiple pharmacys on their platform

Code snippets

Client calls the BAP server to trigger search

    router.post("/health_pharmacy/search_by_product_name", searchByProductName);

    async function searchByProductName({ body }, res) {
        try {
            //  .. Validate the client request before below function
            await generateSearchRequest(body)
        } catch (error) {
            res.status(500).send(httpResponse("NACK", error));
        }
    };

BAP server generates the protocol request body

    // Code to generate the protocol request body i.e. function generateSearchRequest() specified above
    async function generateSearchRequest(clientRequestBody) {
/*

BAP server calls protocol search to the network

   async function callSearch(searchRequestBody) {
        // It lookups the registry for BG OR BPP
        let uri = lookup();
        // Construct Header
        const headers = constructAuthHeader(); // Auth Header with digital Signature
        return axios({ url: `${uri}/health_pharmacy/search`, method: "POST", data: request, headers});
    }

BAP receives protocol on_search
