Introduction

LexEVS CTS2 Export API provides capability to export complete or partial contents of Code System, Value Sets and Association.

Export Interfaces

There are three major export interfaces proved:

  • Code System exporter - Provides capability to export complete or partial contents of Code System.
  • Value Sets exporter - Provides capability to export Value Set Definition or Value Set Resolution (Expanded Value Set).
  • Association exporter - Provides capability to export Associations.

Each of these interfaces can be accessed using:

Code Block
org.lexevs.cts2.admin.export.CodeSystemExportOperation csExportOp = new org.lexevs.cts2.LexEvsCTS2Impl().getAdminOperation().getCodeSystemExportOperation();
org.lexevs.cts2.admin.export.ValueSetExportOperation vsExportOp = new org.lexevs.cts2.LexEvsCTS2Impl().getAdminOperation().getValueSetExportOperation();
org.lexevs.cts2.admin.export.AssociationExportOperation assnExportOp = new org.lexevs.cts2.LexEvsCTS2Impl().getAdminOperation().getAssociationExportOperation();

Code System Exporter

org.lexevs.cts2.admin.export.CodeSystemExportOperation is the main interface which can be used to export complete or partial Code System contents. This interface can be accessed using main LexEVSCTS2 interface, like:

Code Block
org.lexevs.cts2.admin.export.CodeSystemExportOperation csExportOp = new org.lexevs.cts2.LexEvsCTS2Impl().getAdminOperation().getCodeSystemExportOperation();

There are three different methods available to export Code System:

  • Export complete Code System - This method provides capability to export Code System contents using the exporter specified.
  • Export Coded Node Set - This method provides capability to export entities that matches certain restrictions (like matching designation, concept code, property etc).
  • Export Coded Node Graph - This method provides capability to export entities that are part of selected graph (like association, source code, target code etc).

Export Complete Code System

This function exports contents of the code system using the exporter specified. By default, LexEVS comes with following exporters:

  • LexGrid Exporter - exports contents in LexGrid XML format
  • OBO Exporter - exports contents in OBO format
  • OWL Exporter - exports contents in OWL/RDF format

exportCodeSystemContent(String codeSystemNameOrURI, String codeSystemVersion, URI exportDestination, Exporter exporter)

Description:

Exports contents of the code system using the exporter specified.

Input:

  • java.lang.String codeSystemNameOrURI - (Mandatory) Name or URI of the Code System to be exported.
  • java.lang.String codeSystemVersion - (Optional) Version of the Code System to be exported.
  • java.net.URI exportDestination - (Mandatory) Destination path information for the exported file.
  • org.LexGrid.LexBIG.Extensions.Export.Exporter exporter - (Mandatory) exporter to use. Use getSupportedExporterNames to get all the exporters supported by this instance of CTS2.
    For example, 'OBOExport' could be used to export code system contents in OBO format, 'OwlRdfExporter' for code system contents in OWL/RDF format, 'LexGridExport' for Code System in LexGrid XML format, etc.

Output:

java.net.URI - URI of destination if successfully exported

Exception:

org.LexGrid.LexBIG.Exceptions.LBException

Sample Call:

  • Step 1: Instantiate CodeSystemExportOperation if it is not done yet:
    Code Block

    try {_
    
      exporter = (org.LexGrid.LexBIG.Impl.exporters.LexGridExport)lbs.getServiceManager(null).getExporter(org.LexGrid.LexBIG.Impl.exporters.LexGridExport.name);
    } catch (LBException e) {
      throw new RuntimeException(e);
      }
    
    org.LexGrid.LexBIG.LexBIGService.CodedNodeGraph cng = lbs.getNodeGraph("Automobiles", Constructors.createCodingSchemeVersionOrTagFromVersion("1.0"), null);
    
    org.LexGrid.LexBIG.LexBIGService.CodedNodeSet cns = lbs.getNodeSet("Automobiles", Constructors.createCodingSchemeVersionOrTagFromVersion("1.0"), null);
    
    exporter.setCng(cng);
    
    exporter.setCns(cns);
    
    exporter.getOptions().getBooleanOption("Async Load").setOptionValue(false);
    
    exporter.getOptions().getBooleanOption(Option.getNameForType(Option.FAIL_ON_ERROR)).setOptionValue(true);
    exporter.getOptions().getBooleanOption("force").setOptionValue(true);
    
  • Step 3: Call export method by passing the code system version, export destination and other parameter values:
    Code Block
    java.net.URI destURI = csExport.exportCodeSystemContent("Automobiles", "1.0", new File("C:\\").toURI(), exporter);
    

Export Coded Node Set

Exporter Mappings - OwlRdf Exporter Mapping

OwlRdf exporter is based on Jena 2.6.3. It use SDB to build up triple store. The triple store tables are under the same database of LexEvs. LexEvs retrieval api does not support to fetch AssociatedData. It cannot retrieve the association that is from an entity
to a data/value. The owl/rdf exporter, based on LexEVS has the limiation of handling the owl:hasValue, owl:maxCardinality, owl:minCardinality, owl:cardinality constraints as well.
