FHIR SDK

This is a FHIR library in its early stages. The models are generated from the FHIR StructureDefinitions (see https://www.hl7.org/fhir/downloads.html). It aims to be:

• fully compliant
• as safe as possibe
• as easy to use as possible
• fully featured

Features

• Generation of FHIR codes, types and resources
• Serialization and deserialization to and from JSON
• Linked code-fields to respective enums
• Builders for types and resources
• Allow to convert code enums to Coding and CodeableConcept
• Implementation of base traits
  • (Base)Resource
  • NamedResource
  • DomainResource
  • IdentifiableResource
• REST client implementation
  • Create, Read, Update, Delete
  • Search
  • Paging
  • Batch operations / Transactions
  • Patch
• FHIRpath implementation
• Resource validation using FHIRpath and regular expressions
• GraphQL client

Not Planned

• XML

Known Problems

• Due to the big number of big types, the compile time and its memory usage is really high. The auto-generated builders also take a long time during the build time.
• The builder cannot use setter(strip_option), because it disables dynamic setting of optional fields.
• Vec<Option<T>> is annoying, but sadly is required to allow [null, {...}, null] for extensions..

Lints

This projects uses a bunch of clippy lints for higher code quality and style.

Install cargo-lints using cargo install --git https://github.com/FlixCoder/cargo-lints. The lints are defined in lints.toml and can be checked by running cargo lints clippy --all-targets --workspace.
