Method Detail

expandValueSet

ValueSet.ValueSetExpansionComponent expandValueSet(FhirContext theContext,
                                                   ValueSet.ConceptSetComponent theInclude)

Expands the given portion of a ValueSet

Specified by:

expandValueSet in interface IContextValidationSupport<ValueSet.ConceptSetComponent,ValueSet.ValueSetExpansionComponent,StructureDefinition,CodeSystem,CodeSystem.ConceptDefinitionComponent,ValidationMessage.IssueSeverity>

Parameters:

theInclude - The portion to include

Returns:

The expansion

fetchAllStructureDefinitions

List<StructureDefinition> fetchAllStructureDefinitions(FhirContext theContext)

Load and return all possible structure definitions

Specified by:

fetchAllStructureDefinitions in interface IContextValidationSupport<ValueSet.ConceptSetComponent,ValueSet.ValueSetExpansionComponent,StructureDefinition,CodeSystem,CodeSystem.ConceptDefinitionComponent,ValidationMessage.IssueSeverity>

fetchCodeSystem

CodeSystem fetchCodeSystem(FhirContext theContext,
                           String theSystem)

Fetch a code system by ID

Specified by:

fetchCodeSystem in interface IContextValidationSupport<ValueSet.ConceptSetComponent,ValueSet.ValueSetExpansionComponent,StructureDefinition,CodeSystem,CodeSystem.ConceptDefinitionComponent,ValidationMessage.IssueSeverity>

Parameters:

theSystem - The code system

Returns:

The valueset (must not be null, but can be an empty ValueSet)

fetchResource

<T extends IBaseResource> T fetchResource(FhirContext theContext,
                                          Class<T> theClass,
                                          String theUri)

Loads a resource needed by the validation (a StructureDefinition, or a ValueSet)

Specified by:

fetchResource in interface IContextValidationSupport<ValueSet.ConceptSetComponent,ValueSet.ValueSetExpansionComponent,StructureDefinition,CodeSystem,CodeSystem.ConceptDefinitionComponent,ValidationMessage.IssueSeverity>

Parameters:

theContext - The HAPI FHIR Context object current in use by the validator

theClass - The type of the resource to load

theUri - The resource URI

Returns:

Returns the resource, or null if no resource with the given URI can be found

fetchStructureDefinition

StructureDefinition fetchStructureDefinition(FhirContext theCtx,
                                             String theUrl)

Specified by:

fetchStructureDefinition in interface IContextValidationSupport<ValueSet.ConceptSetComponent,ValueSet.ValueSetExpansionComponent,StructureDefinition,CodeSystem,CodeSystem.ConceptDefinitionComponent,ValidationMessage.IssueSeverity>

isCodeSystemSupported

boolean isCodeSystemSupported(FhirContext theContext,
                              String theSystem)

Returns true if codes in the given code system can be expanded or validated

Specified by:

isCodeSystemSupported in interface IContextValidationSupport<ValueSet.ConceptSetComponent,ValueSet.ValueSetExpansionComponent,StructureDefinition,CodeSystem,CodeSystem.ConceptDefinitionComponent,ValidationMessage.IssueSeverity>

Parameters:

theSystem - The URI for the code system, e.g. "http://loinc.org"

Returns:

Returns true if codes in the given code system can be validated

validateCode

IValidationSupport.CodeValidationResult validateCode(FhirContext theContext,
                                                     String theCodeSystem,
                                                     String theCode,
                                                     String theDisplay)

Validates that the given code exists and if possible returns a display name. This method is called to check codes which are found in "example" binding fields (e.g. Observation.code in the default profile.

theCode - The code, e.g. "1234-5"

theDisplay - The display name, if it should also be validated

Returns:

Returns a validation result object
