Welcome to the documentation for pyrophen!

The goal of the pyrophen is to generate a FHIR Code system for representing the Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO). Pyrophen can create a FHIR HPO codeset in XML or JSON format.

pyrophen is used by the HPO build system to generate the hp_fhir.xml file with every release, and end users do not need to use or know anything about pyrophen. However, we have made the pyrophen code base and this documentation public in the interest of transparency and to elicit feedback from interested parties.
