openEHR for Rust

openEHR, in Rust

openEHR Reference Model types, validation, paths, AQL parsing, change-control security primitives, and persistence — in Rust.

openEHR specifies clinical information as a small, stable Reference Model of about ninety classes, plus archetypes that constrain it into clinical content. These crates implement the Reference Model and the machinery around it, so a Rust program can read, build, check, address, and safely disclose openEHR data without inventing its own idea of what a health record is.

The core crate

openehr

openEHR Reference Model types, validation, paths, AQL parsing, and change-control security primitives — in Rust.

openehr = "0.1"

Persistence

One engine-agnostic crate holds the storage model, the projection onto rows, the commit rules, and the conformance suite. Each database crate states how much of that suite it has actually run — Store means a working store verified against a real database, Schema means the DDL has been executed by a real server, and Dialect means the crate emits DDL that no server of that kind has yet seen.

openehr-store

The engine-agnostic half of openEHR persistence: the storage model, the projection from openEHR objects onto rows, the commit rules, and the conformance suite every engine runs.

openehr-sqlite

Store

openEHR persistence for SQLite 3 — a complete embedded store.

openehr-mysql

Schema

openEHR persistence for MySQL 8.4 — the schema dialect.

openehr-mssql

Dialect

openEHR persistence for Microsoft SQL Server 2022 — the schema dialect.

openehr-oracle

Dialect

openEHR persistence for Oracle Database 23ai — the schema dialect.

Specification-driven

The specification is normative, and it is published here in full — 18 documents. Every requirement has a permanent identifier cited from the code, the tests, and the documentation, so a claim about these crates is traceable back to a decision. The conformance matrix records what is verified today, and the audit records every known gap with its evidence.
