Formal Definitions Formal Definitions
Schema The FHIR XML schemas come in 2 forms: The FHIR XML schemas come in 2 forms: Note: the schemas & schematrons do not contain all of the rules about what makes resources valid. Implementers will still need to be familiar with the content of the specification and with any profiles that apply to the resources in order to make a conformant implementation.
FHIR Definitions All the value sets, profiles, etc.defined as part of the FHIR specification, and the included implementation guides. The definitions come in 4 different forms - XML or JSON, and with and without text definitions:
  • XML: with text and without text JSON: with text and without text
  • JSON: with text and without text Note that the forms without definitions are included to be used with tools that don't use the text definitions (e.g. validation tooling) - they are smaller and load faster
Note that the forms without definitions are included to be used with tools that don't use the text definitions (e.g. validation tooling) - they are smaller and load faster

Reference Implementations Reference Implementations These reference implementations are provided for implementer interest and assistance. They may be used in production instances, although HL7 and the contributors accept no liability for their use. These implementations are provided under a standard OSI-approved license (mostly BSD-3-Clause). Note that these reference implementations are provided to assist to implementers to adopt the specification, and are maintained by the FHIR project team, but are not part of the specification, and implementations are not required to conform to these, nor are they subject to the formal standards process.

Other reference implementations not distributed with the specification:

  • Swift-FHIR Swift-FHIR - reference implementation for Swift - reference implementation for Swift
  • HAPI-FHIR HAPI-FHIR - reference implementation for Java - reference implementation for Java Note that the reference implementations are generally limited to code for representing the resource contents in their native form and parsing and serializing them as XML and JSON. Some of the implementations provide support for building, using and reasoning with resource definitions. A few implementations include a client that conforms to the RESTful API. Full blown open source implementations for FHIR, some of which use these reference implementations, are listed on the HL7 wiki
