Is there a simple way to list all FHIR resources that exist using the FHIR package in python?

516 Views Asked by At

I have been using the following code to import all sub-modules in the fhir.resources package to list the standard resource names that exist for FHIR, but I realize this is a poor way to do it, and that silly peripheral module names are thrown in (like fhir.resources.fhirreference) which make this way of doing it objectively wrong. What might be the correct way to list all FHIR Resource names?

import os
import pkgutil
import fhir.resources
        
def list_resource_types():
    path = os.path.dirname(fhir.resources.__file__)
    types = [name for _, name, _ in pkgutil.iter_modules([path])]
    for i in sorted(i for i in types if i.lower()==i):
        print(i)

Thanks! ~Will
