Topic: options for creating a standalone extension definition

I like IGs as a distribution mechanism for conformance resources, but is there any tooling for defining a simple standalone extension definition?
I was hoping I could just do it on a site like Trifolia-on-FHIR or simplifier but so far no luck.

@Lee Surprenant Forge will let you do that: image.png
Can be downloaded from here: https://simplifier.net/forge

You'll want to:

  • Open a new Profile Folder
  • Click New > Extension definition (or New dropdown > New extension)

Or create one with Shorthand: https://build.fhir.org/ig/HL7/fhir-shorthand/tutorial.html#step-7-create-a-species-extension-for-fishpatient

Here's a simple example:

Extension: AuthorizedByPatient
Id: authorized-by-patient
Description: "If true, then indicates that the patient as authorized the use of this address or telecom to contact them."

* ^context.type = #element
* ^context.expression = "Address"

* ^context[1].type = #element
* ^context[1].expression = "Telecom"

* extension 0..0
* value[x] only boolean
