hcls-fhir-rdf

This repo is maintained by the RDF subgroup of the HL7 ITS group, and is mostly used for tracking FHIR RDF issues.

State of affairs

The ShEx and RDF generation functions have been implemented directly within the FHIR publishing process on github

HAPI is now used for parsing and generating FHIR RDF in the FHIR publication process. See RDFParser

Code for the ShEx generation can be found in ShExGenerator.java

The RDF and ShEx generation code in this repository is no longer maintained.
