openehr-query
A hand-written openEHR AQL 1.1 front end for Rust: lexer, parser, and
typed AST for the Archetype Query Language — native logos + chumsky, no
ANTLR runtime.
What it provides
- A complete AQL 1.1 lexer and parser producing a typed AST (
SELECT,FROM/CONTAINS,WHERE,ORDER BY,LIMIT, path expressions with predicates, parameters, functions), corpus-validated against the official grammar's example set. - Typed parse errors with source positions — a refusal names what and where.
- The AST is engine-agnostic: this crate deliberately stops at parsing, so any execution engine (SQL generation, in-memory evaluation) can build on it.
Versioning
The package version follows a pre-stabilisation 0.0.x line while the API
settles; once stable, the crate adopts the version of the openEHR
specification it implements (QUERY (AQL) 1.1.0). The implemented spec version is always
available at runtime as openehr_query::SPEC_VERSION ("1.1.0"), independent of
the package version.
Minimum supported Rust version
Rust 1.96 (edition 2024).
License
MIT (LICENSE-MIT). The crate is hand-written; the openEHR
specification text it implements is the authority but is not embedded in the
package.
Part of FerroEHR
This crate is the query-language layer of FerroEHR, a pure-Rust, openEHR-spec-conformant Clinical Data Repository (ITS-REST 1.1.0 + AQL 1.1 on PostgreSQL 18). The crates are usable standalone; FerroEHR is the reference consumer.
