Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a markup language that defines a set of rules for encoding documents in a format that is both human-readable and machine-readable.
There are many applications for working with HL7 V2 messages, but the tools for working with XML in IRIS Management Portal and Cache Studio are limited.
I'm trying to project a series of objects and nested objects to XML, and I'm having difficulties getting the XML representation exactly the way I need it to be. Here's what I'm working with, nothing complicated:
I'm attempting to build a fairly complicated object graph, with nested objects and collections, in order to create a FHIR bundle.
In its most basic form there is a <bundle></bundle> element that represents the root, and there can be a number of nested <entry></entry> child elements.
In this article, I will introduce my application iris-fhir-bridge
IRIS-FHIR-Bridge is a robust interoperability engine built on InterSystems IRIS for Health, designed to transform healthcare data across multiple formats into FHIR and vice versa. It leverages the InterSystems FHIR Object Model (HS.FHIRModel.R4.*) to enable smooth data standardization and exchange across modern and legacy healthcare systems.
In a project I'm working on we need to store some arbitrary XML in the database. This XML does not have any corresponding class in IRIS, we just need to store it as a string (it's relatively small and can fit in a string). Since there are MANY (millions!) of records in the database I decided to reduce as much as possible the size without compressing. I know that some XML to be stored is indented, some not, it varies.
We are using a DTL transformation to take HL7 and transform into custom XML. But the nodes in the resulting XML are appearing out of sequence - and therefore failing validation against the schema.
The XSD schema for the XML looks fine when imported into Ensemble: root node in the XSD looks like this: And shows in Ensemble like this:
I have a scenario where I send a GET request to a broker and receive a FHIR response. When I attempted to use the built-in InterSystems functions to convert this FHIR response into SDA, the transformation failed—likely because it is not a standard FHIR request.
How should I handle this situation? Is there a recommended approach to processing FHIR responses in this context?
Is there a generic process for "walking" the structure of a virtual document - eg an HL7 message (EnsLib.HL7.Message) or an XML document (EnsLib.EDI.XML.Document).
At least we'd want to be able to visit all "nodes" (HL7 fields or sub-fields, XML nodes) in the virtual document and be able to work out/generate the Property Path (so we could call "GetValueAt").
We can just about come up with something generic for HL7, since it only nests down to 4 levels within each segment, though we're using numeric Property Path's at that point rather than symbolic ones (MSH:1.3 etc).
to handle empty tags in output xml file from %Persistent. But this parameter only applies to %String property. What if a class has other types of properties, like %Stream (for holding large chunk of data). What is the recommended handle if we cannot use XMLIGNORENULL here?
We are attempting to send HL7 messages over to CBOARD NetMenu over HTTP using SSL. We set this up using the EnsLib.HL7.Operation.HTTPOperation adapter. When we attempt to send the message we are receiving
MSH|^~\&|||DIETOE|A6M0|202505131437||ACK^HTTP^415|00|P|2.1 MSA|AE|9165602|HTTP (N)ACK 'HTTP/1.1 415 Unsupported Media Type'
IRIS supports CCDA and FHIR transformations out-of-the-box, yet the ability to access and view those features requires considerable setup time and product knowledge. The IRIS Interop DevTools application was designed to bridge that gap, allowing implementers to immediately jump in and view the built-in transformation capabilities of the product.
In addition to the IRIS XML, XPath, and CCDA Transformation environment, the Interop DevTools package now provides:
We are using a DTL transformation to take HL7 and transform into custom XML (XML is a virtual document, held in an EnsLib.EDI.XML.Document object). The schema specifying the format of the XML says one element should occur no more than 24 times (maxOccurs="24" in the XSD schema). However, the transformation to produce one such element always produces 24 elements, all but the last one blank, when tested stand-alone.
I am seeking work with InterSystems HealthConnect/Cache. My experience is working with Rules and DTLs, plus message search, and export of components.With 10 years of dedicated expertise in SOA and ESB platform development, I have successfully designed and implemented enterprise-level integration solutions for large organizations, driving significant improvements in system interoperability and business efficiency.I have actively developed and supported HL7 V2/V3 、FHIR、XML/JSON interfaces.I reside in China.
As part of a process to generate FHIR XML bundles from HL7 messages, I have a subtransform transforming segments of an MDM_T02 message into a section of XML (EnsLib.EDI.XML.Document). So far this has worked well although I've encountered strange behaviour when making use of an xmlns attribute, whereby the attribute's name is duplicated despite the schema and DTL editor displaying it correctly.
Given the code below, I need help with getting the collected column widths from the Demo.Configuration table and stored in the columnWidths zne page property. As I understand it, I should be able to retrieve it using zenPage.columnWidths in the setColumnWidths or dgRender clientMethods but the alert is showing that it cannot be retrieved as it shows a value of Null. Once I can retrieve those values, then I want to set the widths of the colmns of the dynaGrid according to the values in the ^Demo.Configuration table.
