Getting Started with fhir.resources and Synthea

[fdefalco]

I'm brand new to using this library so apologies if I'm missing something basic. I'm generating sample FHIR bundles using the Synthea project. I've attached my sample file. When attempting to parse the file it fails with 2067 validation errors. I've attached the sample file.

The code is very simple.

import os

from fhir.resources.patient import Patient
from fhir.resources.bundle import Bundle

patientFile = "Agripina633_Howe413_8aca2c5e-a829-09e1-74f2-d15cec8a9008.json"
patientBundle = Bundle.parse_file(patientFile)

Agripina633_Howe413_8aca2c5e-a829-09e1-74f2-d15cec8a9008.json.zip

I'm curious if this error is due to my usage or version of the simulated FHIR or something else? The error with the first few validation errors are as follows:

patientBundle = Bundle.parse_file(patientFile)
File "/opt/homebrew/lib/python3.11/site-packages/fhir/resources/core/fhirabstractmodel.py", line 243, in parse_file
return cls.parse_obj(obj)

Hi @fdefalco
Sorry for late response, I was in vacation. I am coming back to you ASAP.

@fdefalco I think you were using wrong FHIR version, perhaps the bundle you attached is FHIR version R4/R4B.
from fhir.resources.R4B.bundle import Bundle
patientBundle = Bundle.parse_file(patientFile)

Thanks, sorry for missing a simple resolution. Is there no way to infer the FHIR version from the document itself so I might allow my data pipeline to be more resilient and use the proper bundle version based on the content of the file?
