We're starting to experiment w/ supporting FHIR 4.5.0 and FHIR current build in SUSHI -- but I can't figure out where I'm supposed to download those packages from.

  • Re: FHIR 4.5.0, it doesn't seem to be in the packages.fhir.org registry (at least not where I can find it)
  • Re: FHIR #current, it's not listed in http://build.fhir.org/ig/qas.json, which is where we find all IG current builds (although this is less surprising since it is not an IG)

Can someone (probably @Grahame Grieve or @Ward Weistra) provide some guidance on how best to resolve FHIR core packages after 4.0.1?

Hi @Chris Moesel, packages.fhir.org supports R5 as soon as we upgrade Simplifier.net to the Firely .NET SDK version 2.0+. We're looking into that but first building a solution to continue to maintain DSTU2 too, since that was dropped in the 2.0 SDK line.

The hl7.fhir.r5.core packages are already available in the HL7 feed until then: http://hl7.org/fhir/package-feed.xml (or http://packages2.fhir.org/packages/hl7.fhir.r5.core)

Thanks, @Ward Weistra. This is perfect. I somehow did not know about the HL7 feed. I can definitely use that for now!

And it looks like maybe I should just hard-code #current to get it from http://build.fhir.org/hl7.fhir.r5.core.tgz... So I'll do that unless someone says otherwise.

For #current packages, we usually look at the package.manifest.json to see if the latest current build is already in the user's FHIR cache (to avoid unnecessary redundant downloads). I can't find it for the R5 current build (it's not at http://build.fhir.org/package.manifest.json). Any tips on how to do this w/ R5 are appreciated.

I'm not really familiar with how the HL7 build setup uses #current. But all FHIR feeds feeding into the Registry are listed here: https://github.com/FHIR/ig-registry/blob/master/fhir-ig-list.json

@Chris Moesel I get the packages from ci-build, and I don't do anything about currency for now
