Hello, does hapi support mapping engine?

view this post on Zulip Vasyl Herman (Apr 27 2021 at 13:57):

I have a HAPI server running locally 91.207.210.233:8080
I've learn about FHIR mapping language recently. I wonder if I can extend my server and use it to convert custom data to FHIR format. I've read this article as well but it doesn't help a lot https://confluence.hl7.org/display/FHIR/Using+the+FHIR+Mapping+Language.
Don't know where to start.

Basically, what I need is a REST endpoint with ability to convert custom data into FHIR on the fly.

I believe it supports it via the $convert operation, but this is still a new area that is not documented (to put it mildly). @Oliver Egger may be able to help?

i'm not aware yet of direct support for the mapping engine in the HAPI server.

we have it working exposing the core java mapping engine and implementing the $transform operation on top of the plain hapi spring-boot-server (not jpa). you can see examples of the requests here.

if you wan't directly to integrate in your server you might be able to start from this provider.
