HL7Validator Module

Properties   Methods   Events   Config Settings   Errors  

HL7Validator is a lightweight EDI validation module designed for simple document validation.

Syntax

IPWorksEDITranslator.Hl7validator

Remarks

This component provides a simple way to validate an EDI document and obtain details about any validation errors.

EDI Validation

Before calling Validate set SchemaFormat and call LoadSchema to load the schema for the document to be validated. The schema defines many validation rules such as minimum and maximum lengths, minimum and maximum occurrences, and more. The validation performed by the class depends largely on the schema's definition.

When the Validate method is called the class will attempt to validate the document. If errors are found during validation the ValidationError event will fire with details about each error as it is encountered. After the document has been validated the ValidationErrors property will be populated with details of each error.

Inspect the ValidationErrors property for information on any errors that were encountered.

Validation Example validator.InputFile = "files/EDIDocuments/MyEDIDoc.txt"; validator.LoadSchema("my_schemas/00501/RSSBus_005010X222A1_837.json"); validator.Validate(); foreach (ValidationErrorDetail error in validator.ValidationErrors) { Console.WriteLine(error.ErrorCode + ": " + error.Message); }

EDIStandardVersion Property (HL7Validator Module)

The version of the EDI specification.

Syntax

• Swift
• Objective-C

public var ediStandardVersion: String {
  get {...}
}

@property (nonatomic,readonly,assign,getter=EDIStandardVersion) NSString* EDIStandardVersion;

- (NSString*)EDIStandardVersion;

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property will be populated after parsing begins and the correct version string for is located via the schema, such as 004010 for X12.

This property is read-only.

InputData Property (HL7Validator Module)

The data to parse.

Syntax

• Swift
• Objective-C

public var inputData: String {
  get {...}
  set {...}
}

@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=inputData,setter=setInputData:) NSString* inputData;

- (NSString*)inputData;
- (void)setInputData :(NSString*)newInputData;

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property specifies the data to be parsed.

Input Properties

The class will determine the source of the input based on which properties are set.

The order in which the input properties are checked is as follows:

• InputFile
• InputData

InputFile Property (HL7Validator Module)

The file to parse.

Syntax

• Swift
• Objective-C

public var inputFile: String {
  get {...}
  set {...}
}

@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=inputFile,setter=setInputFile:) NSString* inputFile;

- (NSString*)inputFile;
- (void)setInputFile :(NSString*)newInputFile;

Default Value

""

Remarks

This property specifies the file to be processed. Set this property to the full or relative path to the file which will be processed.

Input Properties

The class will determine the source of the input based on which properties are set.

The order in which the input properties are checked is as follows:

• InputFile
• InputData

SchemaFormat Property (HL7Validator Module)

The format of the schema file.

Syntax

• Swift
• Objective-C

public var schemaFormat: Hl7validatorSchemaFormats {
  get {...}
  set {...}
}

public enum Hl7validatorSchemaFormats: Int32 {
  case schemaAutomatic = 0
  case schemaBinary = 1
  case schemaBizTalk = 2
  case schemaSEF = 3
  case schemaBOTS = 4
  case schemaAltova = 5
  case schemaJSON = 6
}

@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=schemaFormat,setter=setSchemaFormat:) int schemaFormat;

- (int)schemaFormat;
- (void)setSchemaFormat :(int)newSchemaFormat;

Default Value

0

Remarks

Set SchemaFormat before calling the LoadSchema method to specify the loading schema format.

The following schema formats are supported:

ValidationErrors Property (HL7Validator Module)

Collection of validation errors for the current document.

Syntax

• Swift
• Objective-C

public var validationErrors: Array<ValidationErrorDetail> {
  get {...}
}

@property (nonatomic,readonly,assign,getter=validationErrorCount) int validationErrorCount;

- (int)validationErrorCount;

- (int)validationErrorColumn:(int)validationErrorIndex;

- (NSString*)validationErrorElementErrorCode:(int)validationErrorIndex;

- (int)validationErrorElementPosition:(int)validationErrorIndex;

- (int)validationErrorErrorCode:(int)validationErrorIndex;

- (int)validationErrorLine:(int)validationErrorIndex;

- (NSString*)validationErrorMessage:(int)validationErrorIndex;

- (NSString*)validationErrorSegmentErrorCode:(int)validationErrorIndex;

- (int)validationErrorSegmentNumber:(int)validationErrorIndex;

- (NSString*)validationErrorSegmentTag:(int)validationErrorIndex;

- (NSString*)validationErrorTechnicalErrorCode:(int)validationErrorIndex;

Default Value

""

Remarks

After calling Validate this property contains details of any validation errors. Validation errors are also accessible through the ValidationError event as the document is validated.

This property is read-only.

CompileSchema Method (HL7Validator Module)

Compiles an existing XSD schema into an optimized binary representation.

Syntax

• Swift
• Objective-C

public func compileSchema(xsdSchema: String, binSchema: String) throws -> Void

- (void)compileSchema:(NSString*)xsdSchema :(NSString*)binSchema;

Remarks

This method parses XsdSchema and generates an optimized binary representation that is saved into the path referenced by BinSchema. Binary schemas are smaller and require less resources when loading later using LoadSchema

If the schema file does not exists or cannot be parsed as an EDI schema, the component throws an exception.

Config Method (HL7Validator Module)

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

• Swift
• Objective-C

public func config(configurationString: String) throws -> String

- (NSString*)config:(NSString*)configurationString;

Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the class.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

DisplaySchemaInfo Method (HL7Validator Module)

Returns a string showing the structure of the schema defining the document.

Syntax

• Swift
• Objective-C

public func displaySchemaInfo() throws -> String

- (NSString*)displaySchemaInfo;

Remarks

After calling LoadSchema this may be called to obtain information about the structure of the schema defining the document. If the desired XPath is not known this helps determine the structure so that the correct XPath can be built.

Note: A valid schema must be loaded via LoadSchema.

For instance: Console.WriteLine(component.DisplaySchemaInfo()); Will output text like:

DisplayXMLInfo Method (HL7Validator Module)

Returns a string showing the structure of the parsed document as XML.

Syntax

• Swift
• Objective-C

public func displayXMLInfo() throws -> String

- (NSString*)displayXMLInfo;

Remarks

After the EDI document has been parsed this method may be called to obtain information about the document structure. The parsed data is represented as XML when queried. This shows all parsed data and may be useful for testing and debugging purposes. For instance: Console.WriteLine(component.DisplayXMLInfo()); Will output text like:

Flush Method (HL7Validator Module)

Flushes the parser and checks its end state.

Syntax

• Swift
• Objective-C

public func flush() throws -> Void

- (void)flush;

Remarks

When Flush is called, the parser flushes all its buffers, firing events as necessary, and then checks its end state.

Any extra un-parsed data will be populated in the ExtraData property after this method is called.

LoadSchema Method (HL7Validator Module)

Loads a schema file describing a Transaction Set.

Syntax

• Swift
• Objective-C

public func loadSchema(fileName: String) throws -> Void

- (void)loadSchema:(NSString*)fileName;

Remarks

This method parses the File and loads it into an internal schema list. The class will attempt to automatically detect the SchemaFormat.

If the schema file does not exist or cannot be parsed as an EDI schema, the class .

Reset Method (HL7Validator Module)

Resets the parser.

Syntax

• Swift
• Objective-C

public func reset() throws -> Void

- (void)reset;

Remarks

When called, the parser flushes all its buffers, firing events as necessary, and then initializes itself to its default state.

Reset must also be used as signal to the parser that the current stream of text has terminated.

Validate Method (HL7Validator Module)

Validates the specified EDI document.

Syntax

• Swift
• Objective-C

public func validate() throws -> Void

- (void)validate;

Remarks

This method validates the EDI document specified by InputFile or InputData.

Before calling Validate set SchemaFormat and call LoadSchema to load the schema for the document to be validated. The schema defines many validation rules such as minimum and maximum lengths, minimum and maximum occurrences, and more. The validation performed by the class depends largely on the schema's definition.

When the Validate method is called the class will attempt to validate the document. If errors are found during validation the ValidationError event will fire with details about each error as it is encountered. After the document has been validated the ValidationErrors property will be populated with details of each error.

Inspect the ValidationErrors property for information on any errors that were encountered.

Validation Example validator.InputFile = "files/EDIDocuments/MyEDIDoc.txt"; validator.LoadSchema("my_schemas/00501/RSSBus_005010X222A1_837.json"); validator.Validate(); foreach (ValidationErrorDetail error in validator.ValidationErrors) { Console.WriteLine(error.ErrorCode + ": " + error.Message); }

Fired when information is available about errors during data delivery.

Syntax

• Swift
• Objective-C

func onError(errorCode: Int32, description: String)

- (void)onError:(int)errorCode :(NSString*)description;

Remarks

The Error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing. Normally the class .

The ErrorCode parameter contains an error code, and the Description parameter contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the Error Codes section.

The Error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing. Normally the class .

The ErrorCode parameter contains an error code, and the Description parameter contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the Error Codes section.

ResolveSchema Event (HL7Validator Module)

Fires whenever a new transaction set is encountered and no schema is found for it.

Syntax

• Swift
• Objective-C

func onResolveSchema(transactionCode: String, standardVersion: String)

- (void)onResolveSchema:(NSString*)transactionCode :(NSString*)standardVersion;

Remarks

The ResolveSchema event will fire when a the class encounters the header segment of a new transaction set, but it finds no schema corresponding to it already loaded.

TransactionCode contains the code of the transaction, such as "810" or "APERAK".

StandardVersion contains the version of the transaction, such as "004010" or "D95A".

When processing this event, the caller can use LoadSchema() to load a new schema into the class that can be used to parse the transaction.

After the event fires, if the class still doesn't have a matching schema, then it will attempt schema-less parsing of the transaction set.

Segment Event (HL7Validator Module)

Fires whenever a data segment in a transaction set is read.

Syntax

• Swift
• Objective-C

func onSegment(tag: String, name: String, loopName: String, fullSegment: String)
