cql-worker/src/cql.worker.js

A library for executing Clinical Quality Language (CQL) expressions asynchronously via web workers or node worker threads.

/**
 * Define an event handler for when a message is sent to this web worker.
 * Three types of messages can be sent here.
 * 1. elmJson & valueSetJon - Logic and code libraries for initial setup
 * 2. patientBundle - An initial or updated patient bundle
 * 3. expression - A logical expression needing to be evaluated
 * It is assumed that at least initially messages are sent in that order. For
 * the third type, if an expression can be evaluated, the result is sent back
 * as a message.
 * @param {object} rx - The message object being sent
