Topic: Terminology Server in Validation
Keith Boone (Aug 09 2016 at 11:16):
We are having some challenges using validator.jar because of proxy settings in some of our environments. Is there some way to make the Validator completely standalone without standing up a terminology server? For my build environment, I don't really have the option of going to an outside system, and setting up a FHIR server to access information that SHOULD be in the FHIR definitions seems like it might be overkill. Could there be a validator terminology-lite option?

the validator uses anything in the fhir definitions. But there's no way I can load up Snomed / LOINC etc in process

So is there any way to do a "Serverless" validation. I have other sources for validating data in code systems, and having to install a Terminology Server in my build environment is a lot of work for the build team.
Grahame Grieve (Aug 09 2016 at 21:05):
not right now but it's a reasonable thing to want to do. if you make a task, I'll get to it
Grahame Grieve (Aug 15 2016 at 08:11):
the validation for the 1.6.0 frozen version can do validation without a supporting terminology service. To set this up, specify n/a for the terminology server in the command line parameters
Keith Boone (Aug 15 2016 at 23:22):
Does it also support validation for pre-1.6 resource packs?
Grahame Grieve (Aug 15 2016 at 23:31):
no. I only made the changes for 1.6
Grahame Grieve (Aug 15 2016 at 23:31):
what version do you want it for?

Is there a way to specify proxy settings in the validator.jar? I can't find them in the documentation at: https://wiki.hl7.org/index.php?title=Using_the_FHIR_Validator
Grahame Grieve (Sep 04 2019 at 20:11):
I thought that -proxy address:port would work infrastructurally. I certainly haven't coded that though
Grahame Grieve (Sep 04 2019 at 20:13):
Turns out I just hadn't done it. I have done it now - will release a new version sometime today
