[HAPI-devel] Build with MFE4 data type fix method

[Ian V. <Ian...@he...>]

Is there a release available with this fix in place?

We have a sender that doesn't fill in the MFE-4, so we have been staying down at release 2.2 for a while because their MFN will parse using that version.

Don't feel confident trying to build it all myself.

Thanks

I solved it by extending SimpleServer:


public class MyService extends SimpleServer

@Override public synchronized void newConnection(ActiveConnection c) {
   String sourceAddress = c.getRemoteAddress().getHostAddress();
   .... check sourceAddress
}



---


MyService service = new MyService(this.clientContext, port, false);

service.registerApplication(..)
service.start();

[Walter K. <wa...@co...>]

Hi David;

I have not dug into the bowels of the HAPI Server implementation, so I could be
off base, but I’ll throw this our there nonetheless. I believe you have several options, 
one of which you mention….using the firewall.

Other options

1) Programmatic:  implement your own “baby application firewall”
    a: allow the connection
    b: before doing anything else, grab the connection socket
    c: compare to a list of IPs that you’ll “accept” (assuming you know what they are)
    d: if sourceIP Is not on your list, close the socket. If IP is allowed, then proceed as normal

2: Programmatic: 
    a: the server socket accept() can be overridden (if using Java)
    b: perhaps the IP list can be checked there before establishing an actual connection

Some type of middleware:

2) add a load balancer. There are open source load balancers out (HAProxy, NGINX). It can do the
    Ip Address filtering for you.

If you are worried about some type of DOS attack, you’ll certainly want to be auditing traffic to see
where its coming from.

Good Luck
Walter

[HAPI-devel] Restricting inbound connections to a known IP address

[<dav...@bt...>]

Hi All,

 

I have been using HL7 HAPI for a while now but have been recently asked if
we could restrict the server listener so that only designated ip addresses
can connect, when invoking the server there doesn't appear to be a way to do
this unless I use an external firewall on the server machine, any thoughts?

 

Rgds

Hi Thea,

I can reproduce the problem for v2.3 messages :) But I found out why: I don't have the v2.3 code!

HAPI has a base jar, and for each message version an additional jar file. You need to include them in your project.
For maven, e.g.:


<dependency>
    <groupId>ca.uhn.hapi</groupId>
    <artifactId>hapi-structures-v23</artifactId>
    <version>2.3</version>
</dependency>

(note: <version> is the hapi version, not the message version. so for e.g. 2.5 messages, you need:

<dependency>
    <groupId>ca.uhn.hapi</groupId>
    <artifactId>hapi-structures-v25</artifactId>
    <version>2.3</version>
</dependency>

)

thanks for your response. It is definitly no problem with the endings, charset etc. I can read the message, parse it and access other fields via terser.

Tests like the following work:

assertEquals("3247", terser.get("PID-3-1-1"));
assertEquals("jmWo4", terser.get("ORC3-2-1-1"));
assertEquals("jmWo2", terser.get("ORC-2-1-1"));
assertEquals("jmWo4", terser.get("OBR3-2-1-1"));
assertEquals("jmWo2", terser.get("OBR-2-1-1"));

I can show you a snapshot from Eclipse. You can see there how the terser (or the finder) handels the segments.

Its not a problem of the V2 Version. With 2.5 oder 2.7 it is the same.

Hi Thea,

Your code looks good to me (TestPanel app shows the same terser path), but you didn't post the "messageText = ... " part.
HL7 messages have carriage return line endings. Did you use that as well?

e.g.
String messageText = "MSH|........\r" +
"PID|....\r" + ...

[HAPI-devel] Hapi Test Panel Questions

[Nathaniel G. <nat...@ve...>]

Hello,

I am on a team that validates HL7 Messages. We have recently started using Hapi Testpanel and have a couple question regarding the tool.

Current version we are using: 2.3


  1.  Tools->HL7 File Diff is not working. It used to show the difference in two HL7 files but now it says "comparison failed unexpectedly, this is probably a bug: Failed to parse message"
  2.  What is the use of Conformance->Profiles and Tables option? can it be used to store z-Segments and validated messages against the stored z segment messages? If yes, then how?
  3.  In HAPI Test Panel 2.3, Under Add Message, when you select version 2.3.1 , it does not show any of the standaradt ADT messages. the type panel lists CRM^C02* messages


Any help on any or all these questions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you so much,

Hi Srikanth,

I could be totally wrong on this but I vaguely recall that this being a MIcrosoft Access database that was sold by the HL7 group and so, may not freely available.

You may want to check the HL7 store or your HL7 local chapter for more details on getting access to this.

That said, there isn't a built-in way of applying XPath, but you might look
at FhirContext#newFluentPath() (renamed to newFhrPath on HAPI FHIR
5.0.0-SNAPSHOT). This allows you to apply FHIRPath expressions to FHIR
resources. These are not exactly like xpath, but are just as expressive.

Cheers,
James

[HAPI-devel] Obtaining XPath during "client" mode...

[Russell B. <ru...@wi...>]

I wonder if there's a way to get an XPath within the source document for 
any, given piece of information I'm able to get out of the API. (Note 
that there is a way to do this using MDHT for HL7 v3 work; this is why I 
ask.) I need to annotate data I extract with the location where I found 
it in the original source document.

For example, let's assume the following code:

    FhirContext context = FhirContext.forDstu3();
    IParser     parser  = context.newXmlParser();
    Patient     patient = parser.parseResource( Patient.class,
    getFhirRecord() );

    List< HumanName > names = patient.getName();
    for( HumanName name : names )
    {
       String family = name.getFamily();
       List< StringType > givenNames = name.getGiven();

       for( StringType given : givenNames )
       {
         String name  = given.toString();
         String xpath = ?;                 // x marks the spot
       }
    }

Neither by inspecting data structures in the debugger nor by examining 
the Javadoc for /org.hl7.fhir.dstu3.model.Patient/ am I able to find way 
to get back something like

    /Patient/contained[1]/Patient/name/given[1]/

for a given name at [x marks the spot above] .

How are others solving this? Does anyone else need to solve this?

Thanks

Re: [HAPI-devel] Parse MSH from arbitrary message

[Ian V. <Ian...@he...>]

Would advise in favour of adding default and invalid Obx2Type settings, having just had a problem with messages containing bad OBX segments.

        context.getPipeParser().getParserConfiguration().setDefaultObx2Type("ST");
        context.getPipeParser().getParserConfiguration().setInvalidObx2Type("ST");

Watch out for MFNs if you get them. They have similar type assigning fields, which the HAPI 2.2 release seems to cope with, but the HAPI 2.3 library is strict about but lacks a configuration for correcting them. The code base has a fix for it, but there hasn’t been a release containing it. I’m not game to try to do the entire build myself, so mostly use the 2.2 release. One of our systems leaves the field containing the type blank, be aware David, since we both receive messages from that sender.

Hi Andrew,

Is your concern about casting related to performance? Because, in general, solutions should be provisioned for the work they have to do. If you need more processing grunt, its often better to tackle that before 'optimising' your code.

Aside from casting the whole message, you can cast the segment [eg (pseudo-code) MSH msh = (MSH) Terser.getSegment("MSH")] to get a proper MSH object. But this option is still casting.

Another option is treating the message as a String eg...
    protected static String getMsh10(String input) {
        int startOfMsh10 = StringUtils.ordinalIndexOf(input, "|", 10);
        int lengthOfMsh10 = StringUtils.ordinalIndexOf(input, "|", 11) - startOfMsh10;
        return StringUtils.mid(
            input
            , startOfMsh10
            , lengthOfMsh10
        );
    }

But that option brings me back to the first point - 'optimising' by String manipulation is convoluted. It'd have been better to wear the costs of parsing and casting the message and enjoy the benefits of using HAPI.

Hope this helps,
David

Re: [HAPI-devel] Parse MSH from arbitrary message

[David B. <Dav...@he...>]

Hi Andrew,

Is your concern about casting related to performance? Because, in general, solutions should be provisioned for the work they have to do. If you need more processing grunt, its often better to tackle that before 'optimising' your code.

Aside from casting the whole message, you can cast the segment [eg (pseudo-code) MSH msh = (MSH) Terser.getSegment("MSH")] to get a proper MSH object. But this option is still casting.

Another option is treating the message as a String eg...
    protected static String getMsh10(String input) {
        int startOfMsh10 = StringUtils.ordinalIndexOf(input, "|", 10);
        int lengthOfMsh10 = StringUtils.ordinalIndexOf(input, "|", 11) - startOfMsh10;
        return StringUtils.mid(
            input
            , startOfMsh10
            , lengthOfMsh10
        );
    }

But that option brings me back to the first point - 'optimising' by String manipulation is convoluted. It'd have been better to wear the costs of parsing and casting the message and enjoy the benefits of using HAPI.

Hope this helps,
David

[HAPI-devel] Parse MSH from arbitrary message

[Andrew R. <and...@ni...>]

I'm receiving HL7 messages of any type, and want to examine the MSH segment
before having to cast the message to a particular type. I can't seem to
find a mechanism to do this. I can get individual MSH fields using a
Terser, but I would prefer to use well typed structures. Even getting the
MSH segment using Terser.getSegment() does not appear to be able to be
converted into an MSH object. Can anyone help?

Thanks,

Re: [HAPI-devel] Error parsing ACK message

[Andrew R. <and...@ni...>]

I did some further testing, and parsing ACK messages generated by HAPI,
dcm4che, and 7Edit all works correctly. I haven't dug into standards enough
to determine if the HL7 Soup ACK is well formed within the standard, or
not, as yet.

Re: [HAPI-devel] Error parsing ACK message

[Ian V. <Ian...@he...>]

I think having the 3rd component in MSH-9 makes the parse create the message type specified there.

Is it possible to omit the MDM_T01 in MSH-9?

Subject: [HAPI-devel] Error parsing ACK message

I'm new to hapi, and am trying to check the ACK response from having sent a message. The message is received properly, and the response appears well formed, however when I attempt to parse the ACK message, it's being interpreted as the type of the original message. (NB: The original message, as well as the response, are generated by HL7 Soup)

final Message response = initiator.sendAndReceive(message);

// Convert message into most recent version format, since they're backwards
// compatible
final HapiContext versionedContext = new DefaultHapiContext();
final CanonicalModelClassFactory modelClassFactory = new CanonicalModelClassFactory("2.8.1");
versionedContext.setModelClassFactory(modelClassFactory);
final Message versionedResponse = versionedContext.getPipeParser().parse(response.toString());
if (!(versionedResponse instanceof ACK)) {
    final String errorMessage = String.format("Response invalid message type;\n  expected %s\n  found %s:\n%s",
          ACK.class.getName(), versionedResponse.getClass().getName(), HL7Utils.forPrinting(versionedResponse));
    recordSendAttempt(hl7DestinationInfo, false, errorMessage);
}

results in

Error sending hl7 message with id '8': Response invalid message type;
  expected ca.uhn.hl7v2.model.v281.message.ACK
  found ca.uhn.hl7v2.model.v281.message.MDM_T01:
MSH|^~\&|HL7Soup|Instance2|HL7Soup|Instance1|200911021022||ACK^T01^MDM_T01|64322|P|2.5.1

Can anyone point out what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,
Andrew
