Class FhirCamelValidators

java.lang.Object
org.openehealth.ipf.platform.camel.ihe.fhir.core.FhirCamelValidators
public final class FhirCamelValidators extends Object

Factory class for creating validating processors for FHIR resources. For schematron validation you need to have the phloc-schematron library in the classpath.

The FHIR validators are used as processors, e.g.: 

     ...
     .process(FhirResourceValidators.itiRequestValidator())
     ...
An instance of UnprocessableEntityException is thrown if validation fails. A FHIR Consumer will automatically process the exception for a 400 response.

Validation is executed depending on the presence of FhirContext in the message header. The kind of validation is determined by the integer value in the VALIDATION_MODE message header, i.e. which of the following bits are set:

  • header not present : schema validation
  • OFF (0) : no validation
  • SCHEMA (1) : schema validation
  • SCHEMATRON (2) : schematron validation
  • MODEL (4) : resource model validation

Higher value result in an higher performance impact due to the validation. Model-based validation can slow down processing significantly.
