The task is to send an XML object from Channel-A to Channel-B
<MyMessage>
<ID>42</ID>
<hl7v2>
MSH|^~\&|LAB|....
PID|1|....
</hl7v2>
</MyMessage>
The steps of the channel communication:
- in the Channel-B's source transformer, extract the HL7v2 contents
- OVERWRITE the current msg object in Channel-B with the extracted contents
- continue in the other Channel-B source transformers and expecting to reference
msg['PID']['PID.5']
as normal.
The good news is that I can extract the HL7v2 'payload' into a variable. The problem or difficulty is resetting the msg
object, or any other object to be able to reference the HL7 properties as expected.
When I create a new variable with the SerializerFactory.getHL7Serializer
, it wraps with the tags <HL7Message>
.
channelMap.put('MessageID', msg['ID']); //successful
channelMap.put('v2payload',msg['HL7v2']); //also looks good
var v2Msg = SerializerFactory.getHL7Serializer(false,false,true).toXML(msg['HL7v2']);
channelMap.put('v2Msg', v2Msg );
Question: Do you have any suggestions on how to overwrite the msg object?
How can I start referencing the msg as such:
msg['PID']['PID.5']
Current Conditions
- the receiving channel's input type is XML
- the need is to take extract all the properties from that XML object; ID is a database PK to be used later in the destination.
