SUSHI

SUSHI (aka "SUSHI Unshortens Short Hand Inputs") is a reference implementation command-line interpreter/compiler for FHIR Shorthand (FSH).

FHIR Shorthand (FSH) is a specially-designed language for defining the content of FHIR Implementation Guides (IG). It is simple and compact, with tools to produce Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) profiles, extensions and implementation guides (IG). Because it is a language, written in text statements, FHIR Shorthand encourages distributed, team-based development using conventional source code control tools such as GitHub.

For more information about the evolving FSH syntax see the FHIR Shorthand Reference Manual.

FHIR Foundation Project Statement

Maintainers: This project is maintained by the HL7 community.
Issues / Discussion: For SUSHI issues, such as bug reports, comments, suggestions, questions, and feature requests, visit SUSHI GitHub Issues. For discussion of FHIR Shorthand and its associated projects, visit the FHIR Community Chat @ https://chat.fhir.org. The #shorthand stream is used for all FHIR Shorthand questions and discussion.
License: All contributions to this project will be released under the Apache 2.0 License, and a copy of this license can be found in LICENSE.
Contribution Policy: The SUSHI Contribution Policy can be found in CONTRIBUTING.md.
Security Information: The SUSHI Security Information can be found in SECURITY.md.
Compliance Information: SUSHI supports creating Implementation Guides for FHIR R4, FHIR R4B, and FHIR R5. While SUSHI performs basic validation to help users author FSH that will produce valid FHIR artifacts, it is not intended to be a full-featured validator. For example, SUSHI does validate paths and cardinalities, but does not validate author-provided FHIRPath expressions, terminological compliance, or slice membership. Authors are encouraged to use a full-featured validator, such as the one found in the IG Publisher, to test their final FHIR outputs. The SUSHI source code includes a comprehensive suite of unit tests to test SUSHI's own behavior and compliance with FHIR, which can be found in the test directory.

SUSHI User Instructions

Installation for SUSHI Users

SUSHI requires Node.js to be installed on the user's system. Users should install Node.js 18. Although previous versions of Node.js may work, they are not officially supported.

Once Node.js is installed, run the following command to install or update SUSHI:

$ npm install -g fsh-sushi

After installation, the sushi commandline will be available on your path:

$ sushi help

Usage: sushi [options] [command]

Options:
  -v, --version                                        print SUSHI version
  -h, --help                                           display help for command

Commands:
  build [options] [path-to-fsh-project]                build a SUSHI project
  init [options] [name]                                initialize a SUSHI project
  update-dependencies [options] [path-to-fsh-project]  update FHIR packages in project configuration
  help [command]                                       display help for command

To build a SUSHI project, use the build command:

$ sushi build --help

Usage: sushi build [options] [path-to-fsh-project]

build a SUSHI project

Arguments:
  path-to-fsh-project      path to your FSH project (default: ".")

Options:
  -l, --log-level <level>  specify the level of log messages (default: "info") (choices: "error", "warn", "info", "debug")
  -o, --out <out>          the path to the output folder (default: "fsh-generated")
  -p, --preprocessed       output FSH produced by preprocessing steps
  -r, --require-latest     exit with error if this is not the latest version of SUSHI (default: false)
  -s, --snapshot           generate snapshot in Structure Definition output (default: false)
  -c, --config <config>    override elements in sushi-config.yaml (supported: 'version', 'status', 'releaselabel') (eg: --config status:draft)
  -h, --help               display help for command

See the SUSHI documentation for detailed information on using SUSHI.

IG Generation

SUSHI supports publishing implementation guides via the new template-based IG Publisher. The template-based publisher is still being developed by the FHIR community. See the Guidance for HL7 IG Creation for more details.

Based on the inputs in FSH files, sushi-config.yaml, and the IG project directory, SUSHI populates the output directory. See the documentation on IG Project with SUSHI for more information on using SUSHI to generate IGs.

SUSHI Developer Instructions

Intro to SUSHI Development

To learn more about SUSHI, watch the Knowledge Sharing Sessions for Developing FSH Tools (view the slides here) and Developing SUSHI (view the slides here). These sessions provide a technical overview of the codebase and summarize key concepts for developers.

Installation for Developers

SUSHI is a TypeScript project. At a minimum, SUSHI requires Node.js to build, test, and run the CLI. Developers should install Node.js 18.

Once Node.js is installed, run the following command from this project's root folder:

$ npm install

NPM tasks

The following NPM tasks are useful in development:

Task	Description
build	compiles `src/*/.ts` files to `dist/*/.js` files using the TypeScript compiler (tsc)
build:watch	similar to build but automatically builds when changes are detected in src files
build:grammar	builds the ANTLR grammar from 'antlr/src/main/antlr' to 'src/import/generated'
test	runs all unit tests using Jest
test:watch	similar to test, but automatically runs affected tests when changes are detected in src files
lint	checks all src files to ensure they follow project code styles and rules
lint:fix	fixes lint errors when automatic fixes are available for them
prettier	checks all src files to ensure they follow project formatting conventions
prettier:fix	fixes prettier errors by rewriting files using project formatting conventions
check	runs all the checks performed as part of ci (test, lint, prettier)
regression	runs regression against repositories found by FSHFinder
regression:last-year	runs regression against repositories found by FSHFinder updated in the last 365 days

To run any of these tasks, use npm run. For example:

$ npm run check

Regression

The regression/cli.ts script can be used to run regression on a set of repos. It's default command, run supports the following options:

Options:
  -a, --a <version>      Baseline version of SUSHI. Can be an NPM version number or tag, "gh:branch" to use a GitHub branch, or "local" to use the local code with
                         ts-node. (default: "gh:master")
  -b, --b <version>      Version of SUSHI under test. Can be an NPM version number or tag, "gh:branch" to use a GitHub branch, or "local" to use the local code with
                         ts-node. (default: "local")
  -l, --lookback <days>  The number of days to lookback in FSHFinder repositories (based on last updated date).
  -c, --count <number>   The maximum number of FSHFinder repositories to test (most recent first).
  -r, --repo <repos...>  One or more repos to test, each specified as a Github {org}/{repo}#{branch} (e.g., HL7/fhir-mCODE-ig#master). This option is not
                         compatible with the lookback, count, or file options.
  -f, --file <file>      A text file for which each line is a GitHub {org}/{repo}#{branch} to test (e.g., HL7/fhir-mCODE-ig#master). This is mostly used for legacy
                         purposes and is not compatible with the lookback, count, or repo arguments.
  -o, --output <folder>  The folder to write regression data to (default: "regression/output")
  -h, --help             display help for command

You can run it via ts-node:

$ ts-node regression/cli.ts run -a 3.0.0 -b local -c 50

You can also run it via npm by adding -- followed by the arguments you wish to pass:

$ npm run regression -- -l 30 -c 50

Another example specifying just two specific repositories to run regression on:

$ npm run regression -- --repo HL7/fhir-mCODE-ig#master HL7/davinci-crd#master

The regression script first installs the -a and -b SUSHIs to temporary folders (except for local, in which case it runs npm install on the local SUSHI). Then for each of the relevant repositories, it does the following:

Downloads the repo source from GitHub, creating two copies (for the base version of SUSHI and the version under test)
Runs the base version of SUSHI against one copy of the repo
Runs the version of SUSHI under test against the other copy of the repo
Compares the results and generates a report of the differences

When the script is complete, it will generate and launch a top-level index file with links to the reports and logs for each repo.

Recommended Development Environment

For the best experience, developers should use Visual Studio Code with the following plugins:

ESLint
Prettier - Code formatter
- Consider configuring the formatOnSave feature in VS Code settings:
```
"[typescript]": {
"editor.formatOnSave": true
}
```
vscode-language-fsh
