3.0.0

CQL Execution 3.0.0 Overview

• CQL Execution 3.0.0 supports an asynchronous execution flow. Patients are still processed in a serial fashion, but calls to the DataProvider (a.k.a. PatientSource) and TerminologyProvider (a.k.a. CodeService) can now happen asynchronously. This allows for these providers to more easily leverage web services and databases for their data.
• In addition to the asynchronous change, cql-execution now has some performance improvements, specifically when dealing with ValueSets that have a large amount of codes. See #278 for a detailed description of these enhancements, and huge shoutout to @birick1 for the thoughtful implementation!

Breaking Changes

The asynchronous migration is a breaking change. Implementers are required to make minor updates to their code to use this release. The code snippets below demonstrate the old way of invoking the v2.x.x engine and two ways to invoke the 3.x.x engine.

// v2.x.x usage
const result = executor.exec(patientSource);
// Do something with result

// v3.x.x usage
executor.exec(patientSource).then((result) => {
  // Do something with result
})

// or

const result = await executor.exec(patientSource);
// Do something with result

Existing implementations of DataProvider (PatientSource) and TerminologyProvider (CodeService) will continue to work as-is. Implementers who maintain their own implementations of these services may want to consider updating them to return results asynchronously.

For more information, see the V2 to V3 Migration Guide.

In addition, when running cql-execution in a Node.js environment, you should use at least Node 16.

Installation

To install this release in your project, run the following command:

npm install --save cql-execution@3

• Convert cql-execution to async by @mgramigna in #271
• Update DataProvider and PatientObject to allow async and be stricter by @mgramigna in #298

3.0.0-beta.4

What's Changed Since Beta 3

• Add Detailed Execution Error Reporting by @natjoe4 in #308

When runtime errors are thrown from cql-execution during expression execution, the engine will attempt to extract more information about the expression that caused the error via the AnnotatedError object which is now exported from cql-execution. For example, an AnnotatedError could have the following message:

AnnotatedError: Encountered unexpected error during execution.

        Error Message:  Some error message
        CQL Library:    LibraryIdentifier|x.y.z
        Expression:     SomeELMExpressionType
        ELM Local ID:   123
        CQL Locator:    7:19-19:96

This information is also programatically accessible on the AnnotatedError object:

try {
  // some execution that might throw an error
} catch(e) {
  if (e instanceof AnnotatedError) {
    e.message; // Error message shown above
    e.libraryName; // Library identifier | Library version
    e.expressionName; // Name of the expression class that threw the error
    e.localId; // localId of the offending expression (must exist on the ELM)
    e.locator; // locator of the offending clause (must exist on the ELM)
    e.cause; // original stack trace of the error that was initially thrown
  }
}
