Document DSL (deprecated)

• Document is schema for Questionnaire with questions and answers and types of values.

• Document is used as source of meta-information by FormLayout

• Document is used as source of meta-information by FormFinalize

• Document resources stored in SDCDocument table.

• Document can define computed fields via rules.

Marking schema as SDC Document entity

Document definition should be marked with aidbox.sdc/doc tag, and also tagged as zen/schema - because it's already schema.

MyDocument
{:zen/tags #{zen/schema aidbox.sdc/doc}}

And after that you can define your custom properties of the document and it's meta information (like source of the document)

Document source defined as fhir Coding like structure, with :system, :code and :url properties

MyDocument
{:zen/tags #{zen/schema aidbox.sdc/doc}
 :source {:code "85353-1" :system "http://loinc.org"}}

To define document fields - you should add :type zen/map property and put your fields under :keys property.

MyDocument
{:zen/tags #{zen/schema aidbox.sdc/doc},
 :type zen/map
 :keys {:loinc-8310-5 {:text "Body temperature"
                       :type zen/map,
                       :confirms #{aidbox.sdc.fhir/quantity},
                       :sdc/boundaries {:imperial {:min 86, :max 105},
                                        :metric {:min 30, :max 42}},
                       :units [{:name "°F"} {:name "°C"}]}}}

Every document field should confirms aidbox.sdc/super-field schema.

For details see Document fields definition section.

DB Storage & Common properties

To support document db-saving ability and support common fields for all documents such as:

• :author - Reference to user which create document,

• :encounter - Reference to encounter,

• :unit-system - What unit system was used in this document at launch,

• :patient - Reference to patient

• :status - Status of the document,

• :type - Full name of document profile.

• :form - Name/version of form, with which document was captured

You need to add :confirms #{aidbox.sdc/Document} property

MyDocument
{:zen/tags #{zen/schema aidbox.sdc/doc}
 :type zen/map
 :confirms #{aidbox.sdc/Document}}

Rules

Rules used for computed properties. Properties schema and compute formula - defined separately.

To support rules definition you need to add tag aidbox.sdc/rules

MyDocument
{:zen/tags #{aidbox.sdc/doc zen/schema aidbox.sdc/rules}}

and after that you can define caclulated properties and their formulas under :sdc/rules property

MyDocument
{:zen/tags #{aidbox.sdc/dok zen/schema aidbox.sdc/rules},
 :type zen/map
 :sdc/rules {:loinc-39156-5 (when (and (get-in [:loinc-29463-7])
                                       (get-in [:loinc-8302-2]))
                             (* (divide (* (get-in [:loinc-29463-7]) 703)
                                        (* (get-in [:loinc-8302-2])
                                           (get-in [:loinc-8302-2])))
                                1))},
 :keys {:loinc-39156-5 {:type zen/number,
                        :text "BMI"}}}

• name of the rule (:loinc-39156-5) should be matched with name of the field.

• If sdc-type inference can't recognize field as calculated - you can mark it manually - add :sdc-type aidbox.sdc/calculated to it

When form launched - Rules from Document will be merged with rules from Layout and placed under :rules key in response.

Don't use same keys in Document rules and Layout rules

Rules logic defined via Embeddel lisp. See details in Lisp reference.

Aidbox Form UI has embedded lisp engine. If you use your custom ui - you should implement your lisp-engine, based on lisp reference.

Document Field definition

SDCDocument has several embedded field-types:

• aidbox.sdc/text - fields with multiline text

• aidbox.sdc/string - fields with oneline text

• aidbox.sdc/number - fields with number

• aidbox.sdc/quantity - fields with measurement units

• aidbox.sdc/choice - fields with answers, located in valuesets

• aidbox.sdc/reference - fields with reference to arbitrary resources

• aidbox.sdc/calculated - fields, which need to be calculated via rules engine

• aidbox.sdc/attachment - fields, that can be used to attach a file

This field types inferred from Document field schemas. But you can overwrite that by specifying it directly via :sdc-type key

super-field schema

Field-type definition.

Schema contains several aspects of Document (Field) lifecycle

• how it stored in DB

• how it validates

• how it appeares in UI layout

• what the possible options

• what the source of the field

Can contain sub-fields or behaves like an array. Also has links to original sources of questions.

super-field schema has next keys:

property	description	filed-type	type	required?
text	Question text	all	string	yes
help	Question explanation or some hint - how to interpret it	all	string	no
type	zen/type of the value, which will be stored in DB	all	symbol	no
sdc-type	field meta-type - used for determine UI input type	all	symbol	no
confirms	additional schemas for stored value confirmation	all	set of symbols	no
sdc/default-value	Default field value (also for repeated fields)	all	zen/any	no
enum	List of available values	choice	zen/keyword	no
sdc/options	Alternative options source	choice	zen/keyword	no
units	List of units	quantity	vector of {:name string}	no
keys	When field is complex object(map) - used for defining nested fields	group	map of super-fields	no
every	When field is coll (zen/vector) - used for defining coll-item schema	repeated	super-field	no
sdc/boundaries	Min/max values for quantity fields (for different measurement units)	quantity	{:imperial MinMaxMap, :metric MinMaxMap}	no
last-change-datetime	Meta field - contains datetime of last changes	all	any	no
code	CodeSystem of the question (used in extractions)	all	Coding	no
linkId	Link to original questing (in questionnaire, used in converter to QR)	all	string	no
resourceType	resource table for quering data	reference	string	no

quantity field-type

Quantity contains units of measurement

quantity schema has next additional keys:

property	description	type	required?
units	List of units	vector of {:name string}	no

Example:

MyDocument
{:zen/tags #{aidbox.sdc/doc zen/schema}
 :keys {:temp {:text "Body temperature"
               :type zen/map,
               :confirms #{aidbox.sdc.fhir/quantity},
               :units [{:name "°F"} {:name "°C"}]}}}

choice field-type

Choise field has predefined set of answers.

Choice fields use these properties:

property	description	type	required?
:enum	List of available values	zen/vector of values	no
:sdc/options	Alternative options source	aidbox.sdc.options/{valueset,rpc}	no

By default choice field uses :enum keyword for options definition.

if you don't use :enum - you should confirm #{aidbox.sdc.fhir/coding} schema.

Example:

MyDocument
{:zen/tags #{zen/schema aidbox.sdc/doc},
 :keys {:bp-measurement {:text "BP measurement site"
                         :confirms #{aidbox.sdc.fhir/coding}    ;; <-- if you use :enum to enumerate possible values - this confirms is optional
                         :enum [{:value {:text "Biceps left",
                                         :code "LA11158-5",
                                         :system "http://loinc.org"}}
                                {:value {:text "Biceps right",
                                         :code "LA11159-3",
                                         :system "http://loinc.org"}}]}}}

For simple cases you can freely use :enum keyword with options - but for complex one (big datasets/more flexibility) you also have 2 alternative sources for retreiving them:

• :aidbox.sdc.options/valueset use valuset stored in aidbox db

• :aidbox.sdc.options/rpc - use custom rpc

It's better to use valuesets instead of :enum, they are more flexible for a long run. (ex: You will not have validation errors if change display of some value) you can add valuesets by using FTR

If you specify :sdc/options :aidbox.sdc.options/valueset, then you also must specify :valueset property.

property	description	type	required?
valueset	lisp expr that returns ValueSet ID	lisp-expr	yes

Example:

Static valueset

:sdc/options :aidbox.sdc.options/valueset
:valueset "my-food-allergy-valueset"

Dynamic valueset

:sdc/options :aidbox.sdc.options/valueset
:valueset (if (= (get :type) "food")
            "my-food-allergy-valueset"
            "my-substance-allergy-valueset")

If you specify :sdc/options :aidbox.sdc.options/rpc, then you also must specify :rpc property.

property	description	type	required?
valueset	ValueSet ID with list of choices	zen/string	yes
rpc	rpc method invocation description	zen/map	yes

RPC method invocations have next structure

property	description	type	required?
valueset	ValueSet ID with list of choices	zen/string	yes
method	rpc method name	zen/symbol	yes
params	parameters map	zen/map	yes

Each value of parameters-map should be valid lisp expression.

Example:

:sdc/options :aidbox.sdc.options/rpc
:rpc {:method my-ns/my-rpc
      :params {:p1 (+ 1 2)
               :p2 20}}

reference field-type

Reference field-type contains aidbox reference to resource (id + resourceType + display)

Also field has search semantics based on full resource text search.

To store reference - you should confirm aidbox.sdc.fhir/reference or zenbox/Reference schema.

reference fields should have these properties:

property	description	type	required?
resourceType	name of table to query data	string	no

Example:

MyDocument
{:zen/tags #{aidbox.sdc/doc zen/schema}
 :keys {:patient {:text "Patient"
                  :type zen/map,
                  :confirms #{aidbox.sdc.fhir/reference},
                  :resourceType "Patient"}}}

calculated field-type

Calculated field. Rule with same name should be used to calculate the result.

Calculated fields don't provide additional keys. Instead it depends on :sdc/rules

NOTE: we have one restriction - calculated fields can't be in nested fields.

MyDocument
{:zen/tags #{zen/schema aidbox.sdc/doc aidbox.sdc/rules},
 :keys {:height  {...}
        :weigth  {...}
        :bmi     {:text "BMI",
                  :type zen/number}}
 :sdc/rules {:bmi (divide (get :weigth)
                          (* (get :height)
                             (get :height)))}}

attachment field-type

Attachment field can be used to attach a file to document. File can be stored in DB or in cloud bucket (currently AWS S3 and GCP buckets are supported)

NOTE: We recommend storing files in the cloud, since storing files in the database takes too much space For cloud storage configuration read here

Example:

MyDocument
{:zen/tags #{aidbox.sdc/doc zen/schema}
 :keys {:pulse-image {:confirms #{aidbox.sdc.fhir/attachment}
                      :sdc-type aidbox.sdc/attachment}}}

You can apply some constraints such as file type, max size:

MyDocument
{:zen/tags #{aidbox.sdc/doc zen/schema}
 :keys {:pulse-image {:confirms #{aidbox.sdc.fhir/attachment}
                      :sdc-type aidbox.sdc/attachment
					  :type zen/map
					  :keys {:contentType {:type zen/string
                                           :regex "image/*"}
                             :size {:type zen/integer
                                    :max 100000}}}}}

QuestionnaireResponse convertions

If you need to convert SDCDocument to QuestionnaireResponse you need to specify additional field property

• :linkId - linkId of original Questionnaire (if not given key of the question will be taken)

MyDocument
{:zen/tags #{zen/schema aidbox.sdc/doc},
 :keys {:bmi {:text "BMI",
              :type zen/number,
              :linkId "/39156-5"}},
 }

SDCDocument extraction

If you would like to extract some values to Observation you should specify additional field property:

• :code - code/system of original Questionnaire question

MyDocument
{:zen/tags #{zen/schema aidbox.sdc/doc},
 :keys {:bmi {:text "BMI",
              :type zen/number,
              :code [{:system "http://loinc.org" :code "39156-5"}]}},
 }

Optional features

Store attachments in cloud storage

Aidbox Forms support storing attachments in the cloud.

Supported cloud storages:

• AWS S3

• GCP Cloud Storage

This feature can be configured via api-constructor in zen-project.

1. Configure your aidbox/system with sdc-service and it's configuration.

Example:

Your zen-project entrypoint namespace (box.edn for example)

 box
 {:zen/tags #{aidbox/system}
  :zen/desc "test server"
  :services {:sdc sdc-service}}

1. Create AwsAccount or GcpServiceAccount
2. Configure sdc-service with created account resource and specify a bucket name

Example:

sdc-service
{:zen/tags   #{aidbox/service}
 :engine     aidbox.sdc/service
 :attachment {:bucket {:name "sdcattachments_bucket"
		       :account {:id "aws-account"
				 :resourceType "AwsAccount"}}}}
