We are excited to announce the release of Simplifier 31.4, packed with technical improvements smaller features to enhance your experience. Here’s a closer look at what’s new in this release:
Quality Control Enhancements
We've introduced new rules and filters to improve quality control:
- unique-filename: Checks for duplicate files in package builds.
- assert: Can now check for any issue or issues of specified severity (warning, error, or info).
- New predicates: exists, min, max, count, and cardinality.
- manifest: Evaluates the correctness of
package.json. - dependency: Provides a full analysis of your dependency closure, including upgrade suggestions.
Here is an example of the new rules for checking the package manifest and package dependencies, as part of the minimal validation rules:
We've also made all rulesets used by Simplifier publicly visible in our Assets project, like these minimal rules. (Note that it is not yet guaranteed that Forge and Firely Terminal use the exact same version of the rules.)
Rendering Improvements
- Markdown Rendering: Now available in all rendering components.
- Enhanced rendering of pattern elements: When a pattern was set on a parent element, child elements were mistakenly rendered as being
fixedinstead of being affected by apattern.
Other Enhancements
- YamlGen: Now generates random content for backbone elements.
- FQL: Can now filter on categories "Profile", "Example", "Extension".
- FQL syntax update: Correctly parses the FhirPath expression
(<expression>).not(). - Numerous textual improvements and fixes.
- Guides markdown frontmatter (YAML) IntelliSense: Typing
canonical:will trigger autocomplete for the canonical URLs in scope. - Improved package publication, allowing users to upload/publish packages directly through the Simplifier API.
