| FHIR Definitions |
This is the master set of definitions that should be the first choice whenever generating any implementation artifacts. All the other forms below include only subsets of the information available in these definition files, and 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. | |
| | XML |
- Examples - all the example resources in XML format
- Validation Schemas (includes support schemas, resource schemas, modular & combined schemas, and Schematrons)
- Code Generation Schemas (see notes about code-generation schemas)
Note that names relevant for code generation, including resource names, element & slice names, codes, etc. may collide with reserved words in the relevant target language, and code generators will need to handle this
| |
| | JSON |
- Examples - all the example resources in JSON format
- JSON Schema (Needs JSON Schema draft-06 or more recent)
- Examples - all the example resources in ND-JSON format (bulk data format)
| |
| | RDF (Turtle) |
- Turtle Examples - all the example resources in Turtle format
- ShEx Schemas - ShEx definitions for validating RDF resources
- Ontology - OWL assertions that define the predicates and classes used in the RDF format

| | FHIR Specification | The whole specification so that you can host your own local copy (does not include the downloads) | | Implementation Tools | | In addition to the resources listed below, the HL7 Confluence contains an overview of commonly used tools to help with implementing FHIR. | | NPM Packages | There are several packages that support the FHIR specification:
[hl7.fhir.r6.core](hl7.fhir.r6.core.tgz): Contains all the resources needed to test conformance to the FHIR specification, and/or generate code[hl7.fhir.r6.expansions](hl7.fhir.r6.expansions.tgz): Contains the expansions of the subset of the value sets the have a required binding (other than those that can't be expanded at all)[hl7.fhir.r6.examples](hl7.fhir.r6.examples.tgz): All the resources that are defined as part of the FHIR specification[hl7.fhir.r6.search](hl7.fhir.r6.search.tgz): Just the search parameters. In this package, the combined search parameters are uncombined so that there is a set of search parameters for each resource (performance considerations)[hl7.fhir.r6.corexml](hl7.fhir.r6.corexml.tgz): The same content as hl7.fhir.r6.core, but with the resources in XML, not JSON
These packages are used by many of the FHIR tools (e.g., the IG publisher and the validator). Note that the tools usually find this package directly through the NPM-based distribution framework, and there's no need to download them | | Spreadsheets | All the resource structures in a Spreadsheet Format - mostly provided to assist with mapping | | Translation File | Translations of common FHIR names and messages into multiple languages (see chat.fhir.org translations stream for guidance on how to add to more) | | Icon Pack | The FHIR Icon at various resolutions. Any FHIR Implementation created by an organization that has attended a connectathon is allowed to use the FHIR icon in association with the application (this policy will be reviewed in the future). | | Test Cases | Test cases can mainly be found in the fhir-test-cases repository | | Code Generation Support | ValueSet expansions for the value sets used in schema generation (XML or JSON) + a list of all choice elements & backbone elements. Note that names relevant for code generation, including resource names, element & slice names, codes, etc. may collide with reserved words in the relevant target language, and code generators will need to handle this |
