Path Shortcuts
Yaml can become verbose when you start nesting. To avoid this, YamlGen allows the use of paths, much like the ones that are used in FHIRpath. You can dot into the details directly:
Patient/example:
meta.profile: http://acme.org/fhir/Patient
name.given: John
Which is the equivalent of:
Patient:
id: example
meta:
profile: http://acme.org/fhir/Patient
name:
given: John
Multiple sub keys
Do make sure that you don't do this with multiple sub keys! This:
name.given: Marie
name.family: Curie
is not the same as:
name:
given: Marie
family: Curie
