FHIR Validator

Burni's FHIR Validator is implemented through the integration of Node.js and Java from the project node-java-fhir-validator.

Important Note

Please use version 0.2.0 of node-java-fhir-validator. Subsequent versions have not been integrated into Burni yet.

• Version 0.2.0 of node-java-fhir-validator uses joeferner / node-java.
• Subsequent versions use node-java-bridge to replicate the functionality of fhir-validator-wrapper.

• The path where Burni places the FHIR Validator: utils/validator
  • index.js: Initializes and imports StructureDefinition (profile json file) and xxx.package.tgz (ig tgz file) from the utils/validator/igs folder into the validator code.
  • processor.js: Implements the code for validateResource.

Which APIs use the FHIR Validator?

• create: When POSTing data, validation is performed first. If validation passes, then create operation is executed; otherwise, a 422 error is returned.
• update: When PUTting data, validation is performed first. If validation passes, then update operation is executed; otherwise, a 422 error is returned.
• $validate: Validation function that returns a 200 response if successful; otherwise, a 422 error is returned.
