This case-sensitive code system http://hl7.org/fhir/version-algorithm
defines the following codes:
Code | Display | Definition | Copy |
semver | SemVer | Uses the semantic versioning scheme as defined in semver.org . |
|
integer | Integer | Versions are integers and ordered numerically |
|
alpha | Alphabetical | Simple alphabetic sort on a case-insensitive and accent-insensitive basis. (Sorting of different cases or accented versions of a character is indeterminate) |
|
date | Date | Versions are expressed as an ISO date/time syntax (including syntaxes with only portions of a date) |
|
natural | Natural | Sorted according to the algorithm defined here: naturalordersort.org |
See the full registry of code systems defined as part of FHIR.
Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:
Level | A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. See Code System for further information. |
Source | The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere) |
Code | The code (used as the code in the resource instance). If the code is in italics, this indicates that the code is not selectable ('Abstract') |
Display | The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application |
Definition | An explanation of the meaning of the concept |
Comments | Additional notes about how to use the code |
