FHIR R4 Parser Module

Sample Usage

01. Parse to FHIR base resource model

In this approach user just need to provide only the FHIR resource payload. Based on the resource type, parser will parse it to it's base profile model.

import ballerina/log;
import ballerinax/health.fhir.r4.parser;
import ballerinax/health.fhir.r4.international401;

public function main() {
    json payload = {
        "resourceType": "Patient",
        "id": "1",
        "meta": {
            "profile": [
                "http://hl7.org/fhir/StructureDefinition/Patient"
            ]
        },
        "active":true,
        "name":[
            {
                "use":"official",
                "family":"Chalmers",
                "given":[
                    "Peter",
                    "James"
                ]
            }
        ],
        "gender":"male",
        "birthDate":"1974-12-25",
        "managingOrganization":{
            "reference":"Organization/1"
        }
    };
    do {
        international401:Patient patientModel = <international401:Patient> check parser:parse(payload);
        log:printInfo(string `Patient name : ${patientModel.name.toString()}`);
    } on fail error parseError {
    	log:printError(string `Error occurred while parsing : ${parseError.message()}`, parseError);
    }
}

Note: parse function returns anydata type when success, and it needs to be cast to the relevant FHIR Resource type.

02. Parse to given FHIR profile resource model

In this approach the parser will attempt to parse the given FHIR resource payload to given resource type profile.

import ballerina/log;
import ballerinax/health.fhir.r4.parser;
import ballerinax/health.fhir.r4.uscore501;

public function main() {
    json patientPayload = {
        "resourceType": "Patient",
        "id": "example-patient",
        "text": {
            "status": "generated",
            "div": "<div xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\">John Doe</div>"
        },
        "identifier": [
            {
                "system": "http://example.com/patient-ids",
                "value": "12345"
            }
        ],
        "extension": [
            {
                "url": "http://hl7.org/fhir/us/core/StructureDefinition/us-core-race",
                "valueCodeableConcept": {
                    "coding": [
                        {
                            "system": "http://hl7.org/fhir/v3/Race",
                            "code": "2106-3",
                            "display": "White"
                        }
                    ]
                }
            }
        ],
        "name": [
            {
                "use": "official",
                "family": "Doe",
                "given": [
                    "John"
                ]
            }
        ],
        "gender": "male",
        "birthDate": "2000-01-01"
    };

    do {
        uscore501:USCorePatientProfile patientModel = <uscore501:USCorePatientProfile> check parser:parse(patientPayload, uscore501:USCorePatientProfile);
        log:printInfo(string `Patient name : ${patientModel.name[0].toString()}`);
    } on fail error parseError {
    	log:printError(string `Error occurred while parsing : ${parseError.message()}`, parseError);
    }
}

Note: parse function returns anydata type when success, and it needs to be cast to the relevant FHIR Resource type.
