Topic: How do I add markdown to description?
Yunwei Wang (Aug 27 2018 at 21:33):
How do I do the markdown? Here is my code segment:
CodeSystem cs = new CodeSystem();
cs.setDescription("<i>this is a test</i>");
The output is
<description value="<i>this is a test</i>"/>

that's html not markdown
Grahame Grieve (Aug 27 2018 at 21:34):
what do you mean 'do markdown'?
Yunwei Wang (Aug 27 2018 at 21:35):
I thought markdown include html tags. No?
Grahame Grieve (Aug 27 2018 at 21:37):
no. we're using GFM, which is commonmark with the rule that there's no html tags. See

Thanks. Then I need to find a different way solution for UTG.
Grahame Grieve (Aug 27 2018 at 22:28):
what are you trying to do?
Yunwei Wang (Sep 01 2018 at 02:16):
@Grahame Grieve Some v3 code systems have <i> tag in their description. I was trying to export that to FHIR CodeSystem resource as part of UTG project. Since that is not possible, I decided to just omit <i> tag and export its content only.
Grahame Grieve (Sep 01 2018 at 02:17):
you can replace that one easily with markdown. some other html tags might be harder work
Yunwei Wang (Sep 01 2018 at 02:21):
Yes I know. I had a hard time to retrieve inner xml as a string in JAVA. Cannot believe JAVA xml node doesn't have that function. Ted will talk to Lloyd on some UTG publishing issues. I will update project based on their discussion.
Grahame Grieve (Sep 01 2018 at 02:56):
of course it has that function. what XML parser ar we using?
