Hi @Julia Afeltra . This looks like great progress.

Can you share any info about things that GoFSH can NOT do at present?

Julia Afeltra (Dec 10 2020 at 23:06):

Hi Saul! GoFSH currently supports all of FHIR Shorthand. We're planning to add support for configuring the layout of your FSH output, potentially a tool to help authors check the output, and any bug fixes that come up before we release a 1.0.0 version.

Does that include any resource instance? eg a Condition resource, or is it intended for conformance resources only?

David Hay (Dec 10 2020 at 23:15):

and - is there a callable service like sushi has? eg pass it an SD instance and get back FSH...

@David Hay -- it translates StructureDefinitions to Profile and Extension definitions, Value Sets to ValueSet definitions, Code Systems to CodeSystem definitions, and everything else into Instance definitions. It also creates Alias, Invariant, and Mapping definitions as necessary.

Chris Moesel (Dec 10 2020 at 23:47):

Currently it all dumps to one resources.fsh file, but in the next version you will be able to indicate what type of layout you want (for example, organized by conformance type, organized by base resource type, etc).
